The posting

P-1700

At Databricks, we are passionate about helping enterprises that build ML models and AI agents deliver high-quality AI to production fast. Founded by engineers, and customer obsessed, we leap at every opportunity to tackle technical challenges, from designing great developer experiences to building reliable systems at global scale. And we're only getting started.

Our team builds the MLOps and LLMOps platform that millions of AI developers and ML practitioners use to track model training experiments, manage model registry, observe and evaluate AI agents. We're the team behind MLflow, the most widely adopted open-source AI engineering platform with more than 30 million package downloads per month, and its managed service used by thousands of organizations globally. We're now expanding to Bengaluru, India, and building our first AI engineering team there from scratch to work on this platform.

As a Staff Software Engineer and a founding member of the Bengaluru team, you'll be the team's technical lead. You'll set the platform strategy and architecture, drive alignment with partner teams, and lead the team to deliver a world-class MLOps and LLMOps platform, while staying hands-on.

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.
