Do you want to work with creative, passionate, and nurturing team members? Do you want to tackle highly strategic problems that require you to not just look what’s around the corner but play out multiple steps ahead? Does tackling really hard problems and building great products by doing so excite you?
If you answered yes to all the above questions then this role is the right fit for you.
Our mission at Databricks is to be a generational Data and AI company. Databricks has successfully created a new market category of the Data Lakehouse (CIDR 2021 paper), an open platform that unifies data warehousing, ELT, advanced analytics, and AI. The Lakehouse architecture addresses several major challenges, including data staleness, reliability, total cost of ownership, data lock-in, and limited use-case support.
Core to the lakehouse is the catalog - and Unity Catalog is the first open, unified, and intelligent lakehouse catalog, designed to secure and govern all data and AI assets. In this role you will have the opportunity to define industry standards for data+AI governance and interoperability. This is a rare opportunity to shape the trajectory of a new market category.
As part of the Unity Catalog Ecosystem team, you will ensure that Unity Catalog integrates effortlessly across tools and platforms, empowering enterprises to simplify governance and unlock the full potential of their data.
