The Role

We are looking for a creative, execution-oriented Senior Solutions Architect to join the Benelux team to maximise the phenomenal market opportunity that exists for Databricks in the Life Science industry. You will bring experience as an architect on large, complex, multinational accounts, and your mission will be to drive the technical and consumption strategy for one of the world's most notable life science companies. This will be driven in partnership with regional account executives and the global account team.

As a Senior Solutions Architect at Databricks, you will come with an informed and compelling point of view on the Data, Analytics and AI space, which will guide your technical strategy and, together with our teams and partners, allow you to provide exceptional value and build lasting trust with executives and technical champions at the account.

The Impact You Will Have

  • Drive the technical and consumption strategy for the organisation's most complex customer engagements, directly influencing platform adoption and revenue growth.
  • Own senior-level technical relationships — serving as a trusted advisor on enterprise data and AI strategy.
  • Lead the most complex architecture engagements: multi-workload platforms, enterprise-wide migrations, real-time systems, and AI/ML at scale, including GenAI and agentic AI workflows (Agent Bricks, AI Functions, LLMOps).
  • Operate as an Expert on the Databricks Platform with a declared archetype — actively mentoring others and driving horizontal impact across your team.
  • Develop and execute competitive strategies for your customers, positioning Databricks against incumbent and emerging platforms.
  • Orchestrate cross-functional teams (Delivery & Specialist SAs, Partners, Product) to deliver enterprise-grade solutions.
  • Coach and develop junior engineers/architects on technical depth, customer engagement, and use case prioritisation.
  • Contribute to Field Engineering thought leadership through customer-facing content, workshops, and community engagement.

What We Look For

  • 8+ years of experience in a global/cross-region, multi-architect account team, combining solutions architecture, principal engineering, technical pre-sales leadership in a customer-facing capacity.
  • Strong hands-on technical background and coding proficiency — Python, SQL, and ideally Spark/PySpark. You will complete a live coding assessment and a platform/prototype build during the interview process.
  • Deep expertise in enterprise data architecture: distributed systems at scale, streaming/real-time, lakehouse design patterns, data governance frameworks, and cloud-native platforms.
  • Expert-level data platform knowledge (either in Databricks or a similar modern data & AI platform with demonstrated rapid learning ability).
  • Recognised as an expert in technical specialisation — e.g., real-time architectures, ML/AI platforms, data governance, large-scale migrations, or industry-specific solutions.
  • Executive presence — ability to influence Directors, VPs, and C-level stakeholders on long-term data and AI strategy; proven value-based selling and vision-generation skills; ability to lead competitive displacements and complex enterprise evaluations.
  • Strong strategic thinking — connecting technical architecture decisions to business outcomes and revenue impact. Proven track record of driving consumption growth and platform adoption in large accounts.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a quantitative discipline (or equivalent experience); advanced degrees are valued.

Nice to Have:

  • Databricks certifications.
  • Prior experience at Databricks, Snowflake, AWS, Google, Microsoft, or a top-tier data/AI company, ideally within Healthcare & Life Sciences (HCLS)/Pharma vertical.
  • Published thought leadership (blogs, conference talks, open source contributions).
  • Life Sciences industry vertical expertise with executive-level domain credibility, ideally GxP experience in a pharma setting.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
