• Databricks certification such as Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate is a plus.

A successful candidate should be able to take a defined data requirement or technical design and independently turn it into a production-ready Databricks solution. They should be comfortable troubleshooting problems, collaborating with senior engineers and architects, and helping less-experienced developers follow good engineering practices.

Leveling distinction: This is not primarily an architecture role. The emphasis is on hands-on engineering, independent delivery, code quality, data reliability, and Level 2 production support.
