5. Truly challenging & interesting client engagements

What is this about?

Demand for senior Databricks experts is growing significantly, and today the talent pool in Northern Europe is still limited at scale. At Solita, we believe top experts aren’t attracted by technology lists alone – but by a genuine growth path, impact, and visibility.

• challenging, Databricks-centric customer engagements
• systematic skill development and certifications
• community, coaching, and an expert network
• the advantages of Solita’s Databricks Gold partner status, the multiple different Solita & Databricks joint channels for Databricks projects and the overall close collaboration between Solita & Databricks

Our goal is to make Solita the best place in Northern Europe to grow from a Databricks expert into a Databricks Solutions Architect Champion.

In practice, this means you’ll work on demanding Databricks-centric customer engagements and receive structured support from Solita to develop your skills, visibility, and Databricks collaboration – aligned with your own goals.

Who is this role for and what do we expect?

We’re looking for Databricks professionals who already have strong hands‑on experience delivering Databricks-based data, analytics, ML, or AI solutions.

Your background could be in, for example, data engineering, data architecture, AI architecture, ML / AI Engineering or data science. Above all, you are someone who wants to:

• deepen your Databricks expertise even further

• build your own expert profile (customers, community, Databricks collaboration)

We expect that you have:

• Solid, production-level experience with Databricks-based data, analytics, ML, or AI solutions
• ability and motivation to work as a senior or lead expert in client environments
• interest in sharing knowledge and developing together
• curiosity, ambition, and a desire to grow to the top of your field
