We’re looking for a DataOps Technical Referent to help build and operate a reliable, secure, and scalable data-mesh platform. You’ll combine hands-on engineering with technical leadership: automating infrastructure and workflows, improving platform operations, and helping teams turn requirements into practical solutions.

You’ll work across cloud infrastructure, data engineering, and analytics, with a focus on Databricks platform administration and infrastructure as code. This role suits someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, is comfortable with ambiguity, and enjoys learning and collaborating across teams.

What will I be doing?

• Build and maintain Python components, Terraform modules, and CI/CD pipelines to automate data platform processes and infrastructure.
• Administer and support Databricks workspaces and platform capabilities, including workspace configuration, access controls, compute policies, and operational standards.
• Manage Databricks infrastructure as code, applying reusable, version-controlled patterns for provisioning and configuration across environments.
• Support Databricks identity and access management, permissions, secrets, networking, and integrations in partnership with cloud and security teams.
• Help operate and optimize Databricks workloads, monitoring reliability, performance, and cost; investigate issues and coordinate their resolution.
• Integrate APIs and platform tools to automate data operations, trigger and monitor processes, and connect infrastructure and services.
• Deploy, maintain, and oversee cloud infrastructure to meet reliability and performance needs.
• Help develop data models, platform best practices, and technical documentation for users.
• Establish and improve DataOps and DevOps practices, policies, and processes.
• Work with stakeholders to understand needs, clarify requirements, and propose solutions; take ownership of issues and drive them through to resolution.
• Contribute to platform architecture and technology decisions, weighing trade-offs and promoting sound data access, stewardship, and governance practices.

What skills do I need?

• Strong Python skills; familiarity with Bash and the ability to work confidently with SQL.
• Practical experience with Terraform and infrastructure as code, Git-based workflows, and CI/CD.
• Experience administering or operating Databricks, ideally including workspace configuration, access management, compute, and platform automation.
• Familiarity with cloud environments and services, particularly AWS; experience with GCP is also valuable.
• Understanding of databases, data warehouses, data lakes, data pipelines, and data modeling.
• Familiarity with development and data tools such as GitHub, Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm.
• Strong troubleshooting and process-improvement skills, with attention to operational reliability, security, and detail.
• Ability to collaborate across teams, communicate technical options clearly, and own work with limited guidance.
• Adaptability and initiative: you’re comfortable with rapid iteration, ambiguity, and finding creative solutions.
• AWS associate- or professional-level certifications are a plus.
• Experience with streaming data concepts and technologies, such as Kafka or AWS Kinesis, including building or supporting reliable streaming pipelines.
• Understanding of event-driven architectures, message delivery and processing patterns, and monitoring/troubleshooting of streaming workloads.

How you’ll work

You’ll partner with data, engineering, and infrastructure stakeholders to make the platform easier to operate and safer to change. You’ll balance hands-on delivery with reusable standards, clear documentation, and continuous improvement.
