  • Design, architect, implement, and optimize large-scale Apache Spark and Databricks workloads, ensuring scalability, reliability, and cost efficiency.
  • Apply advanced knowledge of Spark internals to troubleshoot, debug, and optimize distributed data processing jobs and SQL workloads.
  • Develop and deliver proofs of concept (PoCs), technical demonstrations, and customer workshops to communicate solution capabilities and validate architectural approaches.
  • Act as a trusted technical advisor, proactively identifying customer challenges, anticipating potential issues, and recommending innovative, data-driven solutions.
  • Drive technical decision-making and translate complex business requirements into practical, scalable data architectures.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to enhance platform capabilities, improve technical solutions, and strengthen the overall customer experience.
  • Establish and promote engineering best practices across PySpark, Databricks, and Lakehouse architecture.
  • Mentor junior engineers and support the development of technical expertise across data engineering teams.
  • Continuously identify opportunities to improve data processing performance, platform governance, and overall solution efficiency.
  • Between 5 and 10+ years of professional experience in data engineering, analytics, or enterprise data solution delivery.
  • At least 3 years of hands-on experience with Databricks, including workload optimization, debugging, performance tuning, and governance.
  • Expert-level understanding of Apache Spark fundamentals and internals, with strong practical experience in PySpark development.
  • Proven expertise in Databricks SQL (DBSQL), including query optimization and performance tuning.
  • Strong knowledge of modern Lakehouse architectures, Delta Lake, Structured Streaming, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Demonstrated ability to architect and deliver complex, large-scale data solutions independently, with minimal supervision.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to take initiative, make technical decisions, and manage complex challenges autonomously.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, particularly the ability to explain sophisticated technical concepts and architectural decisions to business leaders and non-technical audiences.
  • Ability to lead customer-facing technical engagements and build trusted relationships through proactive collaboration and solution-oriented thinking.
  • Preferred: Databricks Certified Data Engineer Professional certification.
  • Experience with advanced Databricks capabilities, including Delta Live Tables (DLT) and Unity Catalog (UC).
  • Previous consulting experience involving large-scale data migrations, enterprise analytics transformations, or AI-assisted analytics initiatives is considered an advantage.
  • Fully remote working arrangement within the United States.
  • Full-time contract opportunity.
  • Opportunity to work on complex, enterprise-scale data engineering and analytics projects.
  • Exposure to advanced technologies, including Apache Spark, Databricks, PySpark, Delta Lake, and modern Lakehouse architectures.
  • Opportunity to lead strategic customer engagements and influence enterprise data solutions.
  • Collaborative environment with opportunities to work alongside product, engineering, and customer-facing teams.
  • Professional growth through hands-on experience with advanced data platforms, architecture, and cloud technologies.
  • Opportunity to mentor other engineers and contribute to technical best practices.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
