Sr. Solutions Architect, Customer Lake

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

Marketing teams are stuck between fragmented customer data and martech stacks that copy that data into proprietary silos while customers expect real-time, personalized experiences. Customer Lake , the agentic Customer Data Platform (CDP) built natively into Databricks, changes that equation. It unifies first- and third-party data into governed Customer 360 profiles, resolves identities, and uses agents to build audiences, recommend next-best actions, and activate campaigns across channels, all without copying data out of the Lakehouse or adding vendor lock-in.

What the job covers

• Provide technical leadership to guide strategic customers to successful implementations on customer data and marketing projects, ranging from architectural design to data engineering to identity resolution, audience activation, and agent deployment
• Collaborate with GTM leadership and account teams to design and execute high-impact engagement strategies across your territory, driving Customer Lake adoption from initial Customer 360 build-out through full CDP augmentation or replacement.
• As a trusted advisor, serve as an expert Solutions Architect building technical credibility with CMOs, heads of marketing technology (MarTech), data engineering leaders, and marketing and analytics teams to drive product adoption and vision.
• Enable clients at scale through workshops, POC execution, and developing customer-facing collateral that increases technical knowledge and demonstrates the value of an embedded, agentic CDP architecture.
