Most Loved Workplace® Certified JobAbout the Role
At Databricks, a Most Loved Workplace® certified employer in the Technology space, Democratizing data and AI for every organization worldwide.
<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">CSQ227R5</p>
<h2><strong>About the Role</strong></h2>
<p><strong>*This role is required to work in a hybrid office setting in our Bellevue, WA office.</strong></p>
<h2>The Opportunity</h2>
<p>Databricks runs some of the largest customer enablement programs in the industry — workshops, digital courses, labs, and webinars that reach thousands of users. The Customer Enablement Specialist turns that reach into results. You connect engaged learners to structured training plans that drive product adoption, customer success, and measurable business impact.</p>
<p>This isn’t a sales or business development role — every conversation begins with an existing Databricks user or program participant. Your focus is on helping those customers move from initial interest to tangible capability: skilled teams, completed training milestones, and activated use cases.</p>
<p>You’ll manage a broad portfolio of accounts, supporting new and emerging personas — business users, analysts, and app developers — and helping them succeed with Databricks’ latest innovations in AI/BI, Databricks Apps, and agent-based development.</p>
<h2>What You'll Do</h2>
<ul>
<li>Convert participation in Databricks’ scale programs (webinars, workshops, digital learning) into structured training engagements.</li>
<li>Own a high-volume enablement pipeline — identifying learner needs, recommending tailored paths, and tracking adoption progress.</li>
<li>Deliver engaging L100–L200 sessions and demos to help new personas understand what’s possible with Databricks.</li>
<li>Build enablement plans for each account, tracking trained users, completion rates, and milestone achievement.</li>
<li>Partner with Customer Success Managers (CSMs), Account Executives (AEs), and senior CEAs to align training with customer goals and renewal cycles.</li>
<li>Report key metrics — trained accounts, learner growth, conversion rates, and training revenue — using data to guide your priorities.</li>
<li>Provide structured feedback to program and curriculum teams to sharpen future customer learning experiences.</li>
</ul>
<h3>What You Bring</h3>
<ul>
<li>2–4 years in a technical, customer-facing role — technical training, pre-sales, enablement, or customer success preferred.</li>
<li>Hands-on familiarity with modern data and analytics platforms (Databricks, cloud SQL, BI tools, or data lakes).</li>
<li>Confidence delivering introductory technical content to non-expert audiences.</li>
<li>Working knowledge of AI/ML concepts — able to explain how Databricks enables practical use cases.</li>
<li>Strong communication skills and a consultative approach: discover needs, recommend paths, and gain commitment.</li>
<li>A data-driven mindset with strong organizational habits and comfort managing many concurrent accounts.</li>
<li>Team-first attitude — proactive collaborator who knows when to escalate for deeper technical support.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Bonus Points</h2>
<ul>
<li>Databricks certifications or willingness to certify (Data Engineer Associate, Databricks certifications (or willingness to obtain within 6 months).</li>
<li>Background in SaaS, cloud, or data platforms; familiarity with BI or AI/BI tools (Databricks Genie, Tableau, Power BI).</li>
<li>Exposure to Databricks Apps, REST APIs, or AI agent concepts.</li>
<li>Experience in a role with enablement or training-related revenue metrics.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Why This Role, Why Now</h2>
<p>New products create new skill gaps. As Databricks expands into AI/BI, Databricks Apps, and agent-based development, a new wave of users — business analysts, app builders, domain experts — needs to get skilled up quickly. The depth CEA team focuses on the complex, strategic, and deeply technical. This role focuses on the broad middle: high volume, new personas, and the scale-to-commitment motion that turns digital participation into real adoption. It is a high-visibility, high-impact position with a clear growth path into senior CEA work as you build depth and track record.</p><div class="content-pay-transparency"><div class="pay-input"><div class="description"><p>&nbsp;</p>

Why This Is a Most Loved Workplace® Certified Job
Systemic Collaboration
As Databricks continues our rapid growth, we strive to maintain a culture as open and transparent as it was in Databricks’s early days. Making sure employees have regular access to our CEO and co-founders to hear directly about our vision and priorities helps our employees forge a connection between Databricks priorities and their daily work.
Positive Vision for the Future
Databricks’ culture principles are derived from an internal study of the behaviors that have led to high impact work at Databricks. These values have a direct impact on company culture and play a large part in connecting teams across the organization. We believe in being customer-obsessed, truth-seeking, operating from first principles, having a bias for action, and putting Databricks first. Our co-founders are fully involved in day-to-day operations, including business and technical reviews, working alongside our team members to ensure that we are always aligned with our values.
Alignment of Values
Databricks’ CEO and Co-founder, Ali Ghodsi leads by example with a focus on truth-seeking and first principles thinking, two of Databricks’ core values that stay true to Databricks’s origins in academia. He champions the importance of data and reason to question biases and inform decisions. Ali remains hands-on with research and development and hosts company-wide weekly all hands, with a CEO “ask me anytime” session at the beginning of every agenda. His transparency and accessibility are core to the open and collaborative culture of Databricks.
Respect
At Databricks, we cultivate an environment where all employees can bring their unique selves and are empowered to do the best work of their careers. To ensure all voices are heard and ideas are valued, we conduct annual culture and pulse surveys and host all-hands Q&As to collect feedback from all employees. We then report back to Databricks on the specific changes implemented from the feedback collected to ensure employees feel heard and that their feedback is valued. In addition, we invest in our seven Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) that offer support and employee engagement events for individuals from underrepresented backgrounds and allies.
Killer Outcomes
Databricks prioritizes offering an exceptional employee experience by investing in tools, workspaces, and community-building. Our collaboration-first, hybrid model offers flexibility with in-person touchpoints like our annual employee kickoff, weekly CEO all-hands with happy hours, and monthly team building budgets. We are especially focused on maintaining a culture of transparency, honesty, and trust, with leaders actively engaging across channels like Slack and all hands while also championing inclusion efforts through ERG sponsorship. These initiatives help our team feel connected, valued, and empowered to do their best work.
