Industry Lead Solutions Architect - Financial Services

FEQ227R255

Mission

The Industry Lead Solutions Architect will serve as the connective tissue between GTM leadership, field teams, partners, and customers to deepen Databricks' Financial Services positioning by sub-industry. In this role, you will develop opinionated points of view (POVs), and be the primary technical owner of domain-specific messaging and tailored assets, that establish credibility with customer technical and business leadership. You will work with Databricks account and GTM teams to position Databricks as a strategic partner in solving customers' most critical business challenges across Financial Services sub-verticals.

This is a high-visibility individual contributor role that will bridge the gap between product capabilities and industry-specific business outcomes, working closely with account teams, partners, and product engineering to drive growth and technical excellence across your assigned vertical. You will split your time across customer-facing engagements, internal collaboration on content strategy and thought leadership, and partner engagement on joint GTM motions. You will report directly to the FS Tech GM leadership within the Financial Services team at Databricks.
