Lead GTM Enablement Scale Architect - New Products
The Impact You Will Have
Databricks is entering entirely new markets, e.g. cybersecurity with Lakewatch (an open, agentic SIEM), agentic AI infrastructure, and more categories on the horizon. Each new product means the field needs to learn a new domain, a new competitive landscape, and a new set of customer conversations fast. This is a founding enablement role for Databricks' next wave of products. You won't be inheriting a playbook, you'll be writing a new one, repeatedly, every time Databricks enters a new category. You will own the end-to-end enablement strategy that takes a product from "just announced" to a product every Solutions Architect in the field can confidently qualify, position, demo, and defend in competitive situations. You will be the connective tissue between Product teams building new categories and a global field of SAs, translating capabilities into customer outcomes, and representing the field-readiness voice in Product forums - where the narrative is unclear, where SAs stumble on positioning, where demos need to tighten before a brand-new category reaches the field.
What You'll Do
Own the global GTM and enablement strategy for every new product category Databricks enters - from foundational knowledge through advanced competitive positioning against incumbents
Build and ship enablement at scale using AI: use vibe coding, and AI content pipelines to generate first-draft technical deep dives, competitive talk tracks, hands-on labs, and demo environments - then curate for accuracy and field impact
Design and build demo environments and POC patterns that SAs can fork and customize for customer conversations - you're an architect, not a slide maker
Partner directly with Product and Engineering leadership across new product lines to stay ahead of the roadmap and translate upcoming features into field-ready assets before GA
Establish a tight product feedback loop - systematically capture field friction, lost deals, and SA objections and channel them back to Product with actionable recommendations. You have the standing to tell PMs what's not working and the data to back it up
Design the competitive narrative architecture and build the "why Databricks" story that gives an SA confidence walking into a room with a customer executive.
Create scalable, multi-format enablement: Deep dives, solutions, AI role-plays, hands-on labs, and self-paced learning paths - always with a bias toward assets SAs can use in a customer conversation that same week
Build AI-powered tools that make the field smarter: Glean agents for instant answers, AI role-plays for pitch practice, automated competitive briefs from real-time market signals
Define and track KPIs that measure field readiness, and whether SAs are actually winning more Lakebase deals
Stay a practitioner yourself: spend ~10-15% of your time in customer-facing moments - customer executive briefings, select competitive POCs, because what you build is sharper when you've defended the position in front of a customer executive, not just written it down
Take a step back, think strategically and innovate your approaches to keep up with the fast paced environment.
What We Look For
8+ years in solutions architecture, technical pre-sales, developer relations, technical product marketing, or technical enablement
You've been the SA in the room: you know what it feels like to run a POC, handle objections live, and defend a technical position against a competitor. That lived experience is what makes your enablement credible
Demonstrated ability to go deep fast in unfamiliar technical domains - the "T-shaped" technologist who can become credible in a new technology one quarter and a new category the next
Builder mentality: you default to building tools, demos, and automations - not decks. You use AI tools as a daily force multiplier, not a novelty
Demonstrated ability to build enablement programs from scra ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
