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 and AI infrastructure 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 solve 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.
First-party data collection is the entry point for everything downstream. It also runs on other people's websites and inside other people's apps, which raises the bar from a quality, reliability, and development experience. We are looking for an engineer to lead that surface, client and server side.
The impact you'll have:
- Lead the collection stack end to end: browser tag, mobile SDKs, server-side endpoints, and the ingest path behind them
- Define the schema and versioning contract, including compatibility across SDK versions already in the field
- Lead identity handling that spans anonymous and authenticated records, across devices and sessions
- Lead integrations with other CustomerLake products like Profile & Campaign Agents
- Hold hard budgets on page weight, latency, and failure behavior, so that collection never degrades the host application
- Partner closely with product management, design, and other engineering teams to build intuitive, scalable, and extensible solutions that drive user & business growth
What we look for:
- 10+ years of engineering experience, including time as a tech lead, or leading other tech leads, on complex enterprise software projects
- Ownership of an SDK or client library consumed by external developers, including native iOS and Android
- Deep browser-side JavaScript experience: bundle size, async loading, CSP, storage and cookie restrictions, tracking prevention
- High-throughput server-side collection: edge endpoints, batching, retries, and delivery guarantees
- Practical grounding in consent and privacy requirements, including regional routing and data minimization
- High ownership and bias for action in 0→1 environments: you are comfortable making pragmatic trade-offs, operating with incomplete information, and driving projects from idea through launch and adoption
- Strong ability to collaborate across product, engineering, and design teams to align technical strategy with company growth objectives
- Combination of technical and people leadership, for example, as a TLM (Nice to have)
- Experience building a CDP, analytics SDK, or tag management product (Nice to have)
- Experience with incident response for code deployed on customer properties (Nice to have)
