The Role

As a Solutions Architect, you will lead the technical strategy for your Greenfield (New Logo) customers — owning architecture discussions, driving platform adoption, and serving as a trusted advisor to customer technical leads and architects.

Drive technical wins in competitive scenarios by demonstrating Databricks’ differentiation through custom-built solutions

Orchestrate cross-functional resources (DSAs, SSAs, Partners) to deliver comprehensive solutions for complex customer needs
Influence product direction by providing structured feedback on customer requirements and competitive gaps

What We Look For

Strong coding proficiency in Python and SQL — you must demonstrate live coding, debugging, and solution-building skills
Deep expertise in distributed data systems architecture: designing scalable pipelines, streaming architectures, lakehouse patterns, and cloud-native data platforms
Proficient on the Databricks Platform (or demonstrated ability to achieve proficiency rapidly) with a developing technical specialization in one area (e.g., real-time/streaming, ML/AI, data governance, migrations)
Proven ability to lead architecture discussions with senior technical stakeholders — whiteboarding, design reviews, and trade-off analysis
Experience with production deployments on public cloud (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including infrastructure, security, and governance considerations

Excellent communication skills — able to translate complex architectures into business value for both technical and executive audiences
Fluency in French and English
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a quantitative discipline (or equivalent experience)

Nice to Have:
