Leads a team of Platform and DevOps Engineers. You own the health, roadmap, and delivery of the platform practice.

Guide the team on modern Databricks-native operating patterns.
Platform Operations & Reliability
Serve as the single technical escalation point for DevOps and Platform incidents and change management.

Automation & Continuous Improvement
Champion automation and agentic operations to reduce manual effort and improve reliability.
Drive continuous improvement in ways of working, aligned with industry-standard operating maturity models.
Leadership & Mentorship
Mentor and grow Platform and DevOps Engineers on best practices, code quality, and growth opportunities.

Represent the DevOps / Platform practice in Data & AI leadership forums and cross-functional reviews.

Partner with Data Engineering leaders
