About the Role
(P-1490) Databricks processes petabytes of data and billions of transaction events daily - every cluster launch, every query executed, every dollar billed flows through infrastructure that must never fail. When we process billions in billing transactions with 99.999% accuracy requirements, when we ingest terabytes per second across 100+ regions, when a five-minute outage costs millions in revenue and customer trust - infrastructure isn't just important, it's existential.
