At Databricks, we are passionate about enabling data teams to solve the world's toughest problems — from making the next mode of transportation a reality to accelerating the development of medical breakthroughs. We do this by building and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our customers can use deep data insights to improve their business. Founded by engineers — and customer obsessed — we leap at every opportunity to tackle technical challenges, from designing next-gen UI/UX for interfacing with data to scaling our services and infrastructure across millions of virtual machines. And we're only getting started.

Founded by engineers, Databricks has started a multi-year journey to build the best Lakehouse Platform. For this we are building on top of a great foundation but our goal is to go further to build dramatically better products. We want to revisit every component to provide our customers with the fastest, easiest to use and most secure data platform for all their data workloads.

Lakebase enables teams to deliver applications faster with an optimized database developer experience, integration with the lakehouse, and simplified operations. It provides a managed Postgres transactional layer for application state and workloads that combine operational data, analytics, and AI. You'll join as one of the founding engineers to build out both the Lakebase product and our London presence.

Below are some example teams you can join

Lakebase Platform Reliability: Constantly evolving Lakebase Reliability. That includes cross-functional infrastructure, observability, SLI/SLOs definition and measurements, as well as achieving higher operational efficiency without the need for humans-in-the-loop (both internal and customer-facing), via building AI-powered automation and services

Lakebase Manager (LBM): Build and operate the central control plane that owns the core logic for Lakebase — database creation and deletion, wake-up and suspend
