Databricks is a data and artificial intelligence company founded in 2013 and headquartered in San Francisco, with global operations. It sells a unified Data Intelligence Platform that brings together data engineering, data science and machine learning on a lakehouse architecture, which combines data warehouse and data lake capabilities to serve as a single source of truth. The platform is used by more than 15,000 organisations worldwide, including over 60% of the Fortune 500.
Technical work spans data engineering, data science, machine learning, generative AI, big data processing, ETL and data pipelines.
