  • Knowledge Multiplication: You will contribute significantly to the Databricks community by documenting best practices and leading internal training sessions to level up the entire Professional Services organization.

  • Experience : 8–12+ years leading large-scale technical programs.

  • Technical Fluency: Advanced technical fluency; 2 Databricks Associate Certifications or 1 Professional-level Certification required within 6 months of hire.
