Responsibilities
- ● Translate complex data science findings into clear, actionable narratives for the CEO, C-suite, and Board of Directors - ensuring data science insights directly inform the company's most critical decisions.
- ● Serve as the company's chief statistical voice and the final quality backstop for analytical rigor in high-stakes executive decisions, and advance the state-of-the-art in how Databricks applies statistical methods to business problems.
- ● Raise the communication bar across the entire Data Science organization by setting standards, coaching teams, and co-authoring key executive-facing deliverables, making every DS team better at telling their story.
- ● Produce deep strategic analyses on revenue, platform health, operational efficiency, and competitive positioning - the kind of synthesized, judgment-rich insight that AI cannot autonomously create.
- ● Partner with engineering VPs, product leaders, and executive staff to embed a data-driven decision-making culture across the company, acting as the trusted analytical advisor in rooms where critical decisions are made.
- ● Represent Databricks externally as a data science thought leader at industry conferences, in publications, and in the broader statistical community, building an external identity that attracts world-class talent.
- ● Define and evolve company-wide scientific methodologies - experimentation frameworks, forecasting systems, causal inference approaches - to match and push industry state-of-the-art.
Requirements
- ● 15+ years of experience in data science, statistics, or quantitative research spanning industry and/or academia.
- ● Proven track record of presenting statistical and data science concepts to C-suite and Board-level audiences, with measurable impact on executive decision-making.
