As a player-coach, the role both designs and builds core platform capabilities (Databricks, Unity Catalog, infrastructure, CI/CD, agent runtime primitives) and coaches teams to use the platform correctly. The role ensures the platform is secure, scalable, observable, interoperable, and AI-ready, while enabling autonomy and reuse across geographies and business lines.

Design and implement core platform building blocks (workspaces, catalogs, compute policies, environments)

Enforce security, access control, and isolation by design

Ensure the platform supports data, AI, and agentic workloads consistently

Contribute hands-on to critical platform components and upgrades

Define and operate the platform-level agent interoperability layer

Ensure agents can interoperate across runtimes (Databricks agents, Salesforce Agentforce, internal services)

Treat agent interfaces as first-class platform APIs, versioned and governed

Partner with SRE to embed observability, reliability, FinOps into platform primitives

Co-own CI/CD frameworks and guardrails (policy-as-code, quality gates)

Participate as a standing member of the Design Authority

Enable discovery, sandboxing, and fast-track experimentation safely

Prevent platform fragmentation and shadow architectures
