At Databricks, we are passionate about enabling data teams to solve the world's toughest problems — from making the next mode of transportation a reality to accelerating the development of medical breakthroughs. We do this by building and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our customers can use deep data insights to improve their business. Founded by engineers — and customer obsessed — we leap at every opportunity to solve technical challenges, from designing next-gen UI/UX for interfacing with data to scaling our services and infrastructure across millions of virtual machines. And we're only getting started.


Our Developer Experience team is dedicated to making Databricks engineers happy and highly productive. We build the tools, processes, and infrastructure to accelerate engineering velocity as Databricks scales. The ideal candidate will have a mix of technical expertise in one of the language toolchains (Scala, Rust, Python), build systems (especially Bazel), compilers, version control systems, and testing, but most importantly, a passion for solving developer experience problems and a pragmatic ability to ship results iteratively. 


The impact you'll have:

  • Build world-class developer infrastructure that directly empowers every Databricks engineer to do their best work, every day. 

  • Dramatically boost the reliability, speed, and efficiency of our largest builds, creating a blazing-fast dev loop and making Bazel a breeze to use.

  • Create seamless, out-of-the-box development environments and IDE integrations, allowing engineers to dive into coding and debugging instantly, across all major languages (Scala, Rust, Go, Python, etc)

  • Actively participate in shaping the roadmap for developer experience improvements, contributing to strategic decisions within the team.

    • What we look for:

  • Strong passion for improving developer workflows, productivity and infrastructure.

  • Good understanding of the software development lifecycle and challenges faced by developers operating at scale.

  • Experience building internal developer tools, CI/CD systems, or related infrastructure.

  • Coding chops, clean, elegant, bug-free code in languages like Scala, Rust, Java, Python, Go

  • Minimum of 3 years of experience in fast paced software engineering organisations. 

  • BS (or higher) in Computer Science, or a related field.
