Our mission at Databricks is to radically simplify the whole data lifecycle from ingestion to ETL, BI, and all the way up to ML/AI with a unified platform. To achieve this goal, we believe the data warehouse architecture as we know it today will be replaced by a new architectural pattern, Lakehouse (CIDR 2021 paper), open platforms that unify data warehousing and advanced analytics. The new architecture will help address several major challenges, including data staleness, reliability, total cost of ownership, data lock‑in, and limited use‑case support. A critical part of realizing this vision is the next generation (decoupled) query engine and structured storage system that can outperform specialized data warehouses in relational query performance, yet retain the expressiveness and usefulness of general purpose systems such as Apache Spark™ to support diverse workloads ranging from ETL to data science. Areas we’ll be working on Query compilation and optimization Distributed query execution and scheduling Data security Resource management Transaction coordination Automatic physical data optimization What we look for Experience working toward a multi‑year vision with incremental deliverables Motivated by delivering customer value and impact 8+ years of experience working in a related system (preferred) Pay Range Transparency Local Pay Range
