Position overview:
Blue Orange Digital is hiring a Senior Databricks Engineer for a discovery and architecture engagement with a global management consulting client. You will own hands-on, end-to-end Databricks pipeline work, investigating and structuring data the client already has and building medallion-layer (bronze/silver/gold) pipelines that hold up to real technical scrutiny.

This is an individual-contributor role with high technical ownership, working alongside a client team that pushes back and expects the same from you.

Responsibilities:

  • Build and maintain end-to-end Databricks pipelines using bronze/silver/gold medallion architecture

  • Write hands-on data engineering code in Python, SQL, and PySpark, including materialized views

  • Investigate unfamiliar or undocumented client data and report findings back to the team and client

  • Participate in technical conversations with the client, holding your own on engineering, data modeling, and governance questions

  • Support “art of the possible” demo work as the engagement moves into later phases

Requirements:

  • Hands-on Databricks experience building end-to-end pipelines

  • Strong Python, SQL, and PySpark skills

  • Experience implementing materialized views and medallion-layer (bronze/silver/gold) architectures

  • Comfort investigating unfamiliar data sets independently and communicating clearly what you find

  • Availability for the full engagement arc, up to 26 weeks if it extends

  • Strong written and spoken English, with the ability to communicate effectively and professionally with clients and teammates

Preferred qualifications:

  • “Art of the possible” demo experience

  • Azure experience

Benefits:

  • Fully remote

  • Flexible Schedule

  • Unlimited Paid Time Off (PTO)

  • Paid parental/bereavement leave

  • Worldwide recognized clients to build skills for an excellent resume

  • Top-notch team to learn and grow with
