Role Overview

What Your Databricks Architect Will Do

Your data stack is only as good as the architecture behind it. Our Databricks Architects evaluate your data landscape, design scalable architectures, and create roadmaps that align your analytics infrastructure with business intelligence goals. They evaluate needs across Delta Lake, MLflow, Unity Catalog and design strategies that maximise platform value. Their toolkit includes PySpark, Spark SQL, Delta Live Tables and other ecosystem tools your team uses daily. Many hold certifications including Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate, Databricks Certified ML Associate. Every candidate passes our 5-stage vetting — technical assessment, platform-specific exercises, communication evaluation, background verification, and recorded video introduction — so you interview only proven architects.

Databricks Architect Hiring FAQ

Hire a Databricks Architect when you need strategic guidance — solution design, technology evaluation, process mapping, or roadmap planning. Hire a developer when the architecture exists and you need hands-on build work. Our Databricks architects typically have 8-15 years of experience and guide teams through complex decisions the execution layer doesn't cover.

Beyond coding skills, we test Databricks candidates on query optimization, data modelling patterns, pipeline reliability, and cost management. We evaluate their ability to handle real-world data scenarios — messy sources, schema evolution, and performance bottlenecks. Many hold certifications such as Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate and Databricks Certified ML Associate.

Most clients start with a dedicated full-time Databricks Architect (8-15 years experience) for 3-6 months to complete initial assessment, architecture, and roadmap. After that, many transition to ongoing advisory — 2-3 days per week — while your execution team handles day-to-day work.
