About the job

About the Role

As one of the first engineers in the NYC Engineering office, you’ll be part of a small, nimble team innovating to build new products from the ground up. This is a true 0-to-1 environment, combining the excitement of a startup with the resources of a tech leader like Databricks. You will leverage the power of Databricks in data & AI to deliver vertical AI applications for both technical and business users.

What You'll Do

  • Create novel, never-seen-before interfaces for GenAI agents that manage complex workflows while keeping the human in the loop through inspectability and transparency.
  • Partner closely with product management, design, and other engineering teams to build intuitive and extensible products that drive user & business growth.
  • Lead by example with hands-on front-end and full-stack software development while working with customers directly to create dynamic, user-centric experiences.
  • Enable mechanisms that can drive product-led growth, through seamless onboarding and sharing capabilities.
  • Direct the future of intuitive agentic applications at Databricks, in collaboration with cross-functional teams.

What We Look For

  • 10 years of experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript or similar technologies.
  • Demonstrated product mindset with the ability to translate ambiguous customer problems into scrappy MVPs and iterate quickly based on data and user feedback.
  • High ownership and bias for action in 0→1 environments.
  • Strong ability to collaborate across product, engineering, and design teams.
  • Experience with modern JavaScript frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, or VueJs/Ember).
  • Familiarity with server-side web technologies (e.g., Node.js or similar), SQL, and Spark.

Compensation

Local Pay Range: $190,900—$253,750 USD. Total compensation may include eligibility for annual performance bonus, equity, and benefits. Databricks is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices.
