About the role
About the Role
As one of the first engineers in the NYC Engineering office, you’ll have the opportunity to be part of a small, nimble team that’s innovating to build new products from the ground up. Our goal is to leverage the power of Databricks in data & AI to deliver vertical AI applications for both technical and business users. This will be a true 0-to-1 environment, combining the excitement of a startup with the resources of a tech leader like Databricks.
The Impact You'll Have
- 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, scalable, and extensible solutions that drive user & business growth
- Lead by example with hands-on full-stack software development 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 of innovative software engineers, product managers, and designers
- Establish best practices within the team & Databricks more widely for building valuable, AI products
What We Look For
- 5+ years of experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
- Demonstrated product mindset with the ability to translate ambiguous customer problems into scrappy MVPs and iterate quickly based on data and user feedback.
- You care that AI features feel intuitive, trustworthy, and helpful, not just bolted on to an existing app
- 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.
- Experience with modern JavaScript frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, or VueJs/Ember)
- 5+ years of experience with server-side web technologies (e.g., Node.js, Java, Python, Scala, C#, C++, Go)
- Proven experience building and shipping end-to-end generative AI products, ideally with a significant UI/UX component
- Experience in developing deep product and business knowledge to connect abstract modeling and analysis tasks with business value
