Sr. Solutions Engineer
Databricks · Singapore

Req: FEQ427R137
Location: Singapore

**The Role**

As a Sr. Solutions Engineer, you will independently lead technical engagements for customers, owning discovery, solution design, and platform demonstrations. You are a builder who can code, architect, and present—combining technical depth with customer-facing skills to drive Databricks adoption. You will own frontline customer relationships and work with your Account Executive to develop technical strategies that expand platform usage.

**The Impact You Will Have**

- Independently lead technical discovery and solution design for customer workloads spanning data engineering, analytics, and machine learning
- Build and deliver compelling proofs-of-concept and live demos on the Databricks Platform that drive technical wins
- Own frontline technical relationships with customer engineers, data teams, and technical leads
- Develop account-level technical strategies in partnership with your Account Executive to grow platform consumption
- Navigate competitive landscapes by articulating Databricks differentiation through hands-on demonstrations
- Contribute reusable technical assets (notebooks, solution accelerators, reference architectures) to the broader SA community

**What We Look For**

- 4+ years in data engineering, solutions architecture, technical pre-sales, or a hands-on consulting role
- Proficient in Python and SQL with demonstrated ability to debug, optimize, and write production-quality code — live coding is a required interview stage
- Hands-on experience designing and implementing data solutions on at least one public cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
- Working knowledge of distributed data systems: Apache Spark™, Delta Lake, or equivalent (Hadoop, Kafka, Flink)
- Experience leading technical customer conversations — discovery, whiteboarding, architecture reviews
- Familiarity with one or more: data engineering (ETL/ELT, medallion architecture, streaming), data science/ML (model training, MLOps), or SQL analytics
- Strong presentation and demo skills — you will build and present a live solution during the interview
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a quantitative discipline (or equivalent experience)

**Nice to Have:**

- Databricks certification or experience with the Databricks Platform
- Experience with Unity Catalog, Lakeflow Spark Declarative Pipelines, or MLflow
- Background at a data/AI company, cloud provider, or technical consulting firm
