Five things to know about Databricks.
(The last will shock you!)
1 The product we make
We started the Spark research project at UC Berkeley in 2013 and it quickly became the de facto engine for big data processing. Databricks, our Unified Analytics Platform built around Apache Spark™, accelerates innovation by unifying Data Science, Engineering and Business. Databricks’ production workflows, cross-team collaboration, and cloud infrastructure makes it easy for companies to harness the power of Spark.
2 The people we are
OK, time to brag a little. We’ve got some of the smartest engineers in the game. Luckily they’re also the nicest. We pride ourselves on our collaborative, ego-free atmosphere. We’ve got a championship(!) basketball team, do yoga in the office, and get out to soak up all the great culture San Francisco has to offer.
3 The office(s) we love
Although Databricks was born in Berkeley, we moved to San Francisco in 2015. The office is conveniently located downtown with spectacular views: the Bay Bridge on one side, and SF’s blossoming skyline on the other. Lunch is catered every day. Boba comes twice a week. Free snacks, big couches. Lots of swag.
We’ve also opened offices in Amsterdam and London!
