Databricks Reporting Architect

Key Responsibilities

• Define how data flows from SAP source systems through middleware into the Databricks Lakehouse, establishing clear guidelines for Medallion Architecture (Bronze/Raw, Silver/Cleansed, Gold/Curated layers)
• Build scalable transformation logic using PySpark and Spark SQL, ensuring data quality, performance, and reliability across all layers
• Architect optimized storage layers using Delta Lake, ensuring efficient data layout via Z-Ordering, partitioning strategies, and liquid clustering for high-performance queries
• Design and manage the Gold/consumption layer to serve reporting and analytics use cases with optimized query performance
• Work with Delta Lake for ACID-compliant data storage, time-travel, schema enforcement, and incremental data processing
• Translate complex business requirements into scalable physical data models,  Dimensional/Star Schema, specifically optimized for Databricks SQL
• Serve as the primary architect for data governance, implementing Unity Catalog to enforce fine-grained access control (row and column-level security), data lineage tracking, and centralized auditing
• Design automated data quality validation pipelines using Delta Live Tables (DLT) or Great Expectations to ensure data trust across all layers
• Implement data quality checks, validation frameworks, and monitoring across all pipeline stages; perform root-cause analysis on data discrepancies
• Define and document Databricks architecture patterns, data models, and pipeline designs for reuse, auditability, and compliance
• Collaborate with middleware and data engineering teams to consume SAP data (from ECC/S4) landing in Databricks via integration pipelines
• Support OData or API-based integrations where data flows between SAP and Databricks; coordinate with upstream teams on data discrepancy resolution
• Work with data visualization tools such as SAP Analytics Cloud or Power BI for reporting and analytics
• Understand SAP data structures (OTC, P2P domain) to accurately model and transform business data — deep SAP BW development skills not required
• Perform root-cause analysis on data discrepancies and resolve data quality issues in collaboration with upstream teams
• Build and maintain dashboards and self-service reports for business stakeholders across OTC and P2P processes
• Partner with business users to gather requirements, translate them into analytical models, and validate outputs
• Actively leverage AI coding tools (e.g. Databricks AI Assistant, Claude) to accelerate development, generate transformation code, and improve code quality
• Evaluate and apply emerging AI/ML capabilities available within the Databricks platform (e.g., MLflow, AutoML, Genie) for analytics use cases
• Stay current with Databricks platform updates, Apache Spark developments, and modern lakehouse best practices
• Support testing, validation, and deployment of solutions with minimal business disruption
• Self-manage Business process improvements. Plan milestones and deadlines and provide progress updates.
