Tech Lead, Databricks &
Modern Data Stack





Company: Creole
Studios



Location: Ahmedabad, India



Reports to: Founder & CEO



Type: Full -time






About the role



Creole Studios is launching a dedicated Data & AI
practice focused on the modern data stack, with Databricks as the anchor. The
target market is US mid -market companies that need data platforms that actually
work in production.



We are hiring our first Tech Lead for this practice. You

engineers, and own technical delivery on our early client engagements.



This is a hands -on lead role. Roughly 60% deep technical
work (architecture, code, reviews), 30% team leadership (mentoring, planning,
quality), 10% client and pre -sales support.





If you are a strong senior data engineer ready for a lead
role with real ownership, this is the seat.
