Senior DevOps Databricks Engineer

About the Role

We are looking for a Databricks Senior DevOps Engineer to design, build, and operate enterprise-grade data and ML platforms on AWS and Databricks for our Financial Crime platform.

• Lead DevSecOps and DataOps practices, including infrastructure-as-code (IaC) and CI/CD pipelines for data and ML workflows.
• Configure and optimize Databricks compute clusters (job clusters and all-purpose clusters) for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.
• Manage and enforce governance through Unity Catalog, including access control, security policies, data lineage, and isolation.
• Build and operate ML infrastructure, including model deployment and serving endpoints.
• Integrate AWS services (e.g., S3, Redshift, Kinesis, Lambda, EKS/ECS) with Databricks runtime and Delta Lake.
• Implement platform security best practices, including secrets management, audit logging, and compliance controls.
• Optimize system performance and diagnose large-scale production issues.
• Mentor engineering teams and define architectural best practices for high-scale data and ML systems.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in data platform architecture, cloud infrastructure, or ML platform engineering.
• Strong enterprise-level experience with Databricks and AWS.
• Deep expertise in Unity Catalog governance and security models.
• Hands-on experience designing, deploying, and operating Databricks clusters in production.
• Experience managing Model Serving / ML deployment infrastructure.

• Experience operating in regulated environments (banking/fintech preferred).

Nice to Have

• Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Terraform).
• Multi-account / multi-region cloud architecture experience.
• Experience in financial crime, risk, AML, or fraud analytics platforms.

Benefits

• Performance bonus up to 2 months
• 13th month salary pro-rata
