  • Identify reusable components, best practices, and automation opportunities to accelerate delivery using tools such as Turgon.
  • Collaborate with infrastructure, security, and DevOps teams to define cluster sizing, deployment models, CI/CD pipelines, and cost optimization.
  • Support SOW and project scoping discussions with effort estimations and risk identification.
  • Stay engaged through early build phases, ensuring architectural integrity during handoff to engineering teams.
Must-Have Skills
  • 8-10+ years of experience in data engineering and architecture, with at least 3+ years on Databricks.
  • Deep knowledge of Databricks Lakehouse Architecture, including Unity Catalog, Delta Lake, DBFS, MLflow, and structured streaming.

  • Experience integrating Databricks with Kafka, Airflow, CI/CD pipelines, and container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes.
  • Familiar with security frameworks, role-based access control, and compliance in enterprise data environments.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, capable of driving discussions with senior architects and business leaders.
Nice to Have
  • Experience using Turgon or other internal accelerators in migration/modernization projects.
  • Prior experience in manufacturing, semiconductor, or hardware-driven enterprises.
