  • Partner with downstream teams to prepare data for dashboards, analytics, and BI tools.
  • Work closely with business stakeholders to understand requirements and deliver tailored, high‑quality data solutions.

3. Performance & Optimization

  • Optimize Databricks workloads for cost, performance, and efficient compute utilization.
  • Monitor and troubleshoot pipelines to ensure reliability, accuracy, and SLA adherence.
  • Apply query optimization, Spark tuning, and shuffle minimization best practices when handling tens of millions of rows.

4. Governance & Security

  • Implement and manage data governance, access control, and security policies using Unity Catalog.
  • Ensure compliance with organizational and regulatory data‑handling standards.

5. Deployment & DevOps

  • Use Databricks Asset Bundles for deployment of jobs, notebooks, and configuration across environments.
  • Maintain effective version control of Databricks artifacts using GitLab or similar tools.
  • Use CI/CD pipelines to support automated deployments and environment setups.

Technical Skills (Required)

  • Strong expertise in Databricks (Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, Lakehouse Architecture, Table Triggers, Workflows, Delta Live Pipelines, Databricks Runtime, etc.).
  • Proven ability to implement robust PySpark solutions.
  • Hands‑on experience with Databricks Workflows & orchestration.
  • Solid knowledge of Medallion Architecture (Bronze/Silver/Gold).
  • Significant experience designing or rebuilding batch‑heavy data pipelines.
  • Strong background in query optimization, performance tuning, and Spark shuffle optimization.
  • Ability to handle and process tens of millions of records efficiently.
  • Familiarity with Genie enablement concepts (understanding required; deep experience optional).
  • Experience with CI/CD, environment setup, and Git-based development workflows.
  • Solid understanding of AWS cloud, including:
  • IAM
  • Networking fundamentals
  • Storage integration (S3, Glue Catalog, etc.)

Preferred Experience

  • Experience with Databricks Runtime configurations and advanced features.
  • Knowledge of streaming frameworks such as Spark Structured Streaming.
  • Experience developing real-time or near real-time data solutions.
  • Exposure to GitLab pipelines or similar CI/CD systems.
