As a Senior Infrastructure Engineer on the Data Production Experience team, you will manage and secure the company’s Databricks Lakehouse infrastructure to support machine learning, analytics, and software engineering workflows for lending, fraud, and pricing models. You will be responsible for expanding infrastructure as code, enforcing no-click-ops policies, implementing attribute-based access controls, and automating evidence gathering for OCC, SOX, and SOC audits. Your daily work involves optimizing costs on AWS through compute rightsizing and waste detection while ensuring high availability across multiple environments. To succeed, you must possess expertise in Databricks, Spark, Delta Lake, or Iceberg, along with proficiency in Python, Terraform, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines. You will also evaluate new technologies, mentor junior engineers, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve infrastructure reliability and data quality across the organization's core business verticals.
