Databricks is seeking a Lakebase Sales Specialist to help customers modernize their operational data foundation with Databricks Lakebase, our fully-managed Postgres offering for intelligent applications. This high-impact role sits within the Lakebase Go-To-Market team and partners closely with regional Account Executives to drive adoption of Lakebase with platform, application, and data teams. Lakebase gives customers a unified, governed foundation for operational workloads and AI-native applications, helping them move away from a fragmented estate of point databases toward a modern, scalable, serverless Postgres service. If you want to be at the forefront of operational databases for AI and intelligent applications at one of the fastest-growing data and AI companies in the world, this is your opportunity. The impact you will have Drive new Lakebase revenue by identifying, qualifying, and driving Lakebase activations and consumption within a defined territory, in partnership with regional Account Executives and the broader account team. Lead with outcomes for key Lakebase personas - including platform teams and developers, data teams, and central IT- articulating how Lakebase helps them ship features faster, simplify operational data architectures, and improve governance and cost efficiency. Sell the value of fully-managed Postgres for intelligent applications, positioning Lakebase as the optimal choice for operational workloads that power real-time, AI-driven experiences. Run complex, multi-threaded sales cycles from discovery and value hypothesis through commercial negotiation and close, navigating executive, technical, and line-of-business stakeholders. Orchestrate proof-of-value and POCs that validate Lakebase's benefits for OLTP-style workloads, reverse ETL, and AI/ML-driven applications, in partnership with solution architects and specialists. Compete and win against legacy and cloud-native operational databases by leveraging our compete assets, benchmarks, and customer references. Align to measurable business outcomes such as performance, developer productivity, time-to-market for new features, cost reduction, and simplification of the operational data landscape. Partner cross-functionally with Product Management, Marketing, Customer Success, and Partner teams to shape territory plans, launch plays, and co-selling motions with key ISVs and GSIs. Enable the field by sharing Lakebase best practices, success stories, and sales motions with broader sales teams, helping scale Lakebase proficiency across the organization. What success looks like in this role This role requires the ability to operate across two key motions simultaneously: Establish top strategic focus accounts by engaging application development teams to create net-new intelligent applications leveraging Lakebase. Drive longer-term Postgres standardization and migration within Databricks' most strategic accounts. Candidates should demonstrate how they can act as a force multiplier across multiple dimensions of the business. Success in this role requires strength in four areas: Business ownership - Operate at a business-unit level by tracking revenue, pipeline, and key observations, and by identifying areas needing additional focus or support. Strategic account engagement - Partner with account teams to engage priority accounts across the global DB700, driving strategic opportunities from initial engagement through successful outcomes. Field, account, & customer enablement: Align customers and the field on the value of Lakebase by equipping AEs and SAs with the messaging and execution motions needed to confidently own accounts without specialist intervention. Market voice and thought leadership - Develop an internal and external presence by contributing to global AMAs and internal forums, and by representing Databricks at key first- and third-party events. The interview process is designed to evaluate candidates across all four of these dimensions. What we look for Proven enterprise SaaS sales experience, consistently exceeding quota in complex, multi-stakeholder deals. Proven success selling data platforms, operational databases (e.g., Postgres, MySQL, cloud-native DBaaS), or adjacent data/AI infrastructure to technical buyers and business leaders. Strong understanding of modern data and application architectures, including cloud-native services, microservices, event-driven systems, and how operational data underpins AI and analytics strategies. Ability to sell to both technical stakeholders (developers, architects, data engineers) and business stakeholders (product leaders, operations, line-of-business owners). Demonstrated experience leading specialist or overlay motions, working jointly with core Account Executives to create and progress opportunities. Executive presence with the ability to whiteboard architectures, lead C-level conversations, and build trust with senior decision makers. Strong value selling skills: adept at discovering pain, building a business case, and tying technical capabilities to clear, quantified outcomes. Excellent communication, storytelling, and negotiation skills, with comfort presenting to both large and small audiences. Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience. Preferred qualifications Experience selling Postgres, operational databases, OLTP workloads, or transactional cloud database services, ideally within large or strategic accounts. Familiarity with data platforms, lakehouse architectures, and cloud ecosystems (AWS, Azure, GCP), including how operational databases fit within broader data and AI strategies. Understanding of reverse ETL, real-time decisioning, and operational analytics use cases, and how they drive value for customer-facing and internal applications. Exposure to AI-native and agent-driven applications that depend on low-latency, highly scalable operational data services. Prior experience in a high-growth, category-creating environment, helping shape new plays, messaging, and customer narratives. Experience collaborating with partners and ISVs to drive joint pipeline and co-sell motions. This description is intended to outline the core responsibilities and qualifications for the Lakebase Sales Specialist role. Actual responsibilities may evolve as the Lakebase product and go-to-market motions continue to grow and mature.

Support engineering teams in delivering scalable, maintainable and well-structured solutions. Assess existing systems and identify opportunities to simplify, consolidate and modernise platform capabilities. Support the evolution of legacy systems towards agreed target-state architectures through pragmatic, incremental change. Make and guide technical decisions around distributed systems, APIs, integrations, data and cloud architecture . Ensure security, resilience, observability, performance and scalability are incorporated into solution designs. Identify architectural risks, technical debt and platform constraints, and establish appropriate mitigation strategies. Provide technical review and architectural guidance for significant changes across multiple engineering teams. Work closely with Engineering and Product leadership on major technical decisions and platform roadmaps. Promote consistent architectural standards, engineering quality and technical decision-making. Act as a trusted technical advisor across complex, cross-functional technology initiatives. Support and mentor senior engineers and technical leads, helping embed architectural thinking within delivery teams. Required Skills & Experience Strong commercial experience working as a Software Architect / Principal Architect within complex software environments. Proven experience designing distributed systems and modern software platforms . Strong understanding of software architecture patterns, APIs, integrations and cloud-based systems. Experience operating within Microsoft Azure or another major cloud environment. Demonstrable experience defining service boundaries, ownership models and integration patterns . Strong understanding of SQL and NoSQL data technologies and the architectural considerations involved in selecting appropriate data stores. Experience working with transactional systems where data integrity, consistency, resilience and reliability are critical. Strong understanding of non-functional architecture, including security, scalability, performance, observability and resilience . Experience modernising or evolving existing platforms incrementally, including working with legacy systems and technical debt. Technical Environment .NET / C# Microsoft Azure Python Node Distributed and service-based architectures REST APIs and integrations SQL and NoSQL data technologies Cloud infrastructure and platform services Modern DevOps and CI/CD practices GitHub Jira Confluence What We're Looking For This role would suit a software focused architect who is comfortable operating between high-level architecture and hands-on technical detail.

At OQC, we aren't just theorising about the future; we're building it. Born from a philosophy of bold innovation, we've successfully transitioned quantum computing from an academic dream into a commercial reality. The most exciting thing is that we're just getting started and we've recently closed our £260 million Series C funding round - the largest fundraise ever completed by a quantum computing company in Europe. The Purpose As our Head of IP & Innovation, you'll be OQC's internal authority on intellectual property, shaping how we identify, protect and leverage the innovations and know-how behind our technology. Working at the intersection of science, engineering, legal and commercial strategy, you'll build an IP framework that protects our competitive advantage without slowing innovation, giving our teams the confidence to invent, collaborate and take quantum technology further. Please note that we also welcome candidates who would like to work 4 days per week on a 80% FTE salary basis. The Role This is a high-impact role with significant autonomy and visibility across OQC. Reporting to the Chief Legal Officer, you'll own the day-to-day management of our IP portfolio and invention pipeline while developing the strategy, governance and culture needed to manage IP effectively as OQC scales globally. You'll work directly with scientists and engineers to uncover potentially valuable inventions, translate complex technical developments into protection strategies, and ensure IP thinking happens early, not after the innovation has happened. Beyond protecting what we create, you'll help OQC understand where our IP can strengthen our competitive position, enable strategic collaborations and potentially unlock new commercial opportunities. What You'll Be Working On Shape OQC's IP strategy: Develop and implement our intellectual property strategy, aligning portfolio decisions and protection priorities with OQC's technology and commercial ambitions. Own our portfolio and invention pipeline: Manage patents, invention disclosures, trade secrets and proprietary know-how, creating robust processes to identify, evaluate, protect and track valuable IP. Get close to the technology: Lead invention and IP workshops with scientists and engineers, translating cutting-edge technical developments into practical protection strategies. Protect our freedom to innovate: Monitor competitor patent activity, oversee freedom-to-operate work and strengthen how we protect confidential information, trade secrets and external technical disclosures. Enable commercial and strategic activity: Advise on IP ownership, licensing and technology rights across customer agreements, research collaborations, strategic partnerships, fundraising, due diligence and international programmes. Build an IP-first culture: Create practical training and guidance covering invention disclosures, confidentiality, publications, open-source software, AI usage, customer demonstrations and confidential information. Scale the IP operating model: Establish governance, SOPs, records, KPIs and reporting across OQC's global operations, while managing external patent attorneys and specialist IP advisers effectively. What We're Looking For Significant hands-on IP experience within technology, deep tech or another complex technical environment, with strong capability across IP strategy, patents, inventions, trade secrets and confidential know-how. A track record of working closely with scientists, engineers or other highly technical specialists to identify innovation and determine the right approach to protection. Experience leading complex IP matters with substantial autonomy, combining technical, legal and commercial considerations to make clear recommendations and knowing when strategic issues require escalation. Evidence that you've built or materially improved IP processes and governance, rather than simply administering an established portfolio. Experience managing external patent attorneys, IP advisers or other specialist advisers, alongside advising internal stakeholders on ownership, licensing, protection and collaboration matters. The ability to understand complex technical information, spot IP implications and communicate them clearly to senior, technical and non-technical audiences. A relevant legal, IP, scientific or technical background - or equivalent practical experience - combined with strong judgement, organisation and the ability to influence across multiple teams and priorities. The 'Nice-to-Haves' Experience with quantum technologies or another deep-tech field such as semiconductors, advanced computing, photonics or advanced engineering. Qualification as a UK and/or European Patent Attorney, solicitor or other relevant IP professional. A degree or equivalent technical background in physics, engineering, computer science or another deep-tech discipline. Experience supporting IP due diligence for fundraising, investment or strategic transactions. Exposure to international IP matters, research collaborations or government-funded programmes. Hands-on experience conducting or coordinating freedom-to-operate assessments. Experience with technology licensing or identifying opportunities to commercially leverage an IP portfolio.
