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 tackle 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.
More about the team:
As a Technical Product Manager, you will work closely with product managers, engineering teams, and technical field organizations to ensure the features we design and ship deliver outstanding user experiences. This role requires you to deeply understand both functional and non-functional requirements, such as performance, scalability, security, and compliance and how customers meet these requirements today. You will evaluate how these workloads are implemented on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform and identify opportunities to improve the product experience.You will act as a bridge between technical field teams and product and engineering. Insights from customer PoCs, benchmarks, and real-world implementations will directly inform product decisions. You will also help ensure that product improvements are clearly communicated back to the field.
Depending on your background, you will focus on one of two critical product areas:
OLTP Databases
You will help shape our transactional database capabilities to meet the performance, reliability, and scalability requirements of modern applications and AI agents.
Data Governance
You will help ensure data assets are governed effectively, enabling controlled access, compliance, and visibility across the organization. This includes enabling governed access for AI-driven use cases (e.g. agent-based access via MCP or similar technologies).
The Impact you will have:
- Identify and drive impactful product improvements in your domain of expertise
- Define and run performance benchmarks (OLTP focus) or governance best practices and reference architectures (governance focus)
- Shape and prioritize a meaningful product roadmap
- Support go-to-market efforts and guide product adoption
- For governance focus: define processes and mechanisms for how AI agents securely and compliantly access the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform
What we look for:
- 5+ years of experience with a strong, hands-on technical background
- Strong empathy for customers across full spectrum of Data Platform users
- Deep domain expertise in one of the following:
- Transactional databases (OLTP), cloud-native databases, or distributed systems
- Data governance, data catalogs, lineage, and access management
- Experience evaluating and comparing technologies across dimensions such as performance, reliability, governance, and compliance
- Strong Python and SQL skills
- Experience using AI-assisted development tools
