Databricks Resident Solutions Architect interview questions

I was contacted by Hiring Manager over LinkedIn. Telephonic call with Hiring Manager – general discussion about role, work routine and what is expected out of this role on high level (they are looking for highly technical talent with great communication skills that could represent DataBricks at client end – You basically work virtual and visit client location with around 30% travel per Month) and then general questions about my work experience and past projects. At the end Hiring Manager did as couple of Technical questions (some question on spark architecture) to make sure candidate has potential for next round. Then HR contacted me for take home assignment – its pretty exhaustive assignment – it covers everything from data transformation to ML. I completed that assignment in 2 days of time and was pretty confidant on solution as well – surprisingly I couldn’t crack it down. After requesting a feedback call – I got to know that output was good enough however my write-up and communication on solution was not up to their expectations, I had made spelling mistakes as well. They didn’t find it good as this role is expected to represent DataBricks. Make sure to emphasis on your presentation and solution communication aspect – and not just technical stuff. Good luck.
