  • Provide patterns, templates, and reusable modules (Terraform modules, Airflow DAG patterns, Databricks job templates) to accelerate onboarding of new projects
  • Continuously evaluate and improve tooling, pipelines, and platform architecture to increase reliability, security, and developer productivity on Databricks
  • Define the code promotion process to minimize impacts across domains as code is promoted to production
  • Manage end-to-end orchestration using managed Airflow. Contribute to defining and tracking SLA/SLO/SLIs for the platform and participate in incident response (triage, root cause analysis)
  • Practical knowledge of IT Infrastructure technologies, cloud computing Azure), cybersecurity, and disaster recovery.
  • Working knowledge of Azure ecosystem, including hands-on experience designing, building, and optimizing scalable data pipelines within cloud-native environments.
QUALIFICATIONS
  • Hands-on experience with Databricks in production environment, including workspace and cluster management, jobs/workflows and integrations with orchestration tools
  • Strong experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or similar) and Git-based workflows.
  • Strong experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and orchestration tools for provisioning and managing Databricks and cloud infrastructure.
  • Experience implementing automated tests and quality gates in CI/CD pipelines.
  • Ability to partner effectively with data engineers, analytics engineers, architects, and security teams.
MINIMUM EXPERIENCE & EDUCATION
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field preferred, or equivalent work experience.
  • 4–7+ years in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, or Platform Engineering, with at least 2+ years supporting data/analytics platforms.
