Build and maintain shared knowledge, reusable code, reference architectures and accelerators, bringing relevant Databricks developments into our work.

Own our technical relationship with Databricks as both a partner and a client, and contribute to joint initiatives.
Support presales and client workshops, and represent Hiflylabs through technical content, events and the wider Databricks community.
What you’ll bring
Deep, hands-on Databricks expertise and a broad understanding of its capabilities across data engineering, advanced analytics, AI/ML and application development.
A strong track record in delivering integrated solutions using Databricks and complementary tools and technologies across the wider data and AI ecosystem.
Experience as a Tech Lead, Lead Architect, Engineering Lead or similar senior technical leader.
Experience building or leading technical teams or communities, with the ability and motivation to establish effective ways of working.
A commitment to developing others while staying actively involved in engineering and delivery.
Strong communication skills: you can guide engineers, advise clients and collaborate effectively with partners.
