Staff Software Engineer - Fullstack (NYC)

P-1980

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 Intelligence 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 tackle 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.

As a founding engineer in the NYC Engineering office, you’ll have the opportunity to be part of a small, nimble team that’s innovating to build new products from the ground up. Our goal is to leverage the power of Databricks in data & AI to deliver vertical AI applications for both technical and business users. This will be a true 0-to-1 environment, combining the excitement of a startup with the resources of a tech leader like Databricks.   

The key challenge you’ll be dealing with is leveraging the latest UX/UI technologies to create simple but powerful interfaces of very complex data and workflows. Your team is taking a UI-first and GenAI-first approach to building products. For example, you may be working in challenges such as:

• Create interfaces for GenAI agents that generate complex workflows while keeping the human in the loop through inspectability and transparency
• Create complex visualizations such as data pipelines, data mappings, customer journey flows, identity graphs, etc
• Enable mechanisms that can drive product-led growth, through seamless onboarding and sharing capabilities
• An interactive environment for collaborative data projects at massive scale with an easy path to production

What we look for:

• 10+ years of experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• Passion for user experience and design and a deep understanding of front-end architecture
• High velocity focus, able to ship high quality code frequently and with speed 
• Experience building complex workflows and complex analytics visualizations
• Motivated by delivering customer value
• Experience with modern JavaScript frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, or VueJs/Ember)
• 10+ years of experience with server-side web technologies (eg: Node.js, Java, Python, Scala, C#, C++,Go)
• Good knowledge of SQL
