I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Databricks
Interview
Long but fair process with several rounds of interviews. Very engaging, friendly and smart people! Also the coordination of interviews and updates were fast and efficient. It is a time investment but worth the effort! Several interviews with HR, HM, technical peers, and managers/executive level.

Other Senior Solutions Engineer Interview Reviews for Databricks
Around 5 stages- recruiter screen, take home in python or sql,HM interview, technical interview, case study presentation and then a director chat. Overall moves quite quickly and they seem to have a talented team.

Question 1
mainly around my experience and data/ai tech questions
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Databricks in Jan 2026
Interview
The process was very smooth, they provided reasonable motivations and feedback, and the recruiter was available for a short feedback call in the end. Have to say, not common in the industry

Question 1
Tell me about a time you did something outstanding
Interview process was smooth, nice people. 1 HM round, 1 tech round on PySpark and 1 Presentation round. Databricks was not listed as a requirement, and HM said I wouldn't need it for the interviews. But, I was rejected after the presentation round because of less Databricks knowledge, which made no sense

Question 1
Presentation panel was basically to sell Databricks to customers
