You’ll help our banking clients transition to Databricks, from migrating the data warehouse to implementing AI use cases. In doing so, you’ll serve as the bridge between technology and the business side: you’ll implement the solution and demonstrate the business value it delivers.
About 70% of our clients are banks, and more and more of them are switching to Databricks. That’s why we’re expanding the Data Team to include Databricks expertise. Typical projects include migrating a data warehouse to Databricks and building a semantic layer so that queries via Databricks Genie return accurate results. Technical consulting colleagues handle business analysis and user stories within the project. You’ll contribute both the technical perspective and the big picture. We’re looking for engineers with a business mindset—not someone who just works through tickets. In this role, you’ll collaborate across functions with delivery teams from other departments, such as Governance, Risk, and Compliance; Financial Services; Infrastructure; Microsoft; and Consulting.
