Databricks Integration Lead

Role Overview

We need a senior, hands-on Databricks Integration Lead to own the integration architecture for a large migration from

Veeva CRM to Vault CRM. The scope covers 5 Veeva CRM orgs and 46 unique integration points that must be

analyzed, rationalized, and optimized before connecting to the new Vault CRM platform. The lead sets technical

direction, makes architecture decisions, and guides a skilled Databricks engineering team (including offshore

resources). Deep, current, hands-on Databricks expertise is the top screening criterion. This is not an

oversight-only role.
