The Sr. Staff Platform / Data Reliability Engineer is responsible for making Databricks a reliable, secure, scalable, and operationally mature platform for enterprise use. This role focuses on the platform itself rather than domain-specific business modeling, ensuring the lakehouse can support multiple domains, regulated data handling, and a growing set of production workloads without becoming fragile, expensive, or hard to govern. 

This role partners closely with the Senior Staff Data Engineer, who focuses more heavily on ingestion and medallion implementation patterns, and with the existing Cloud & Infrastructure team, which owns cloud accounts, networking, and foundational infrastructure. The Platform / Data Reliability Engineer owns the Databricks operational layer that sits above that foundation: reliability, observability, deployment standards, compute and job policies, and platform enablement patterns for internal users.
