Role Description Our client is looking for a Senior AWS/ Databricks Engineer in Sandton. - AWS VPC ownership (Databricks VPC): administer and maintain subnets, route tables, security groups, NACLs, NAT/Internet egress patterns (as applicable), and network segmentation to meet performance and security requirements. - Connectivity to the bank / enterprise network: troubleshoot and support end-to-end connectivity between the Databricks AWS VPC (IRE) and the bank network across cross-region/cross-account boundaries; coordinate and drive changes with the Cloud team where required. - Private access to AWS services: Design, implement, and operate VPC endpoints and related routing/DNS patterns to enable secure access to services such as S3 while reducing reliance on public internet paths. - S3 data access enablement (with security controls): Partner with platform/security teams to ensure Databricks workloads can reliably read/write required S3 data using appropriate IAM roles/policies and encryption controls; support diagnosis of access failures that present as platform incidents. - Operational support & reliability: Provide production support for the platform connectivity layer (incident response, RCA, preventative actions), maintain runbooks and reference diagrams, and implement improvements to reduce repeat incidents. - Cross-team change management: Raise, manage, and chase change requests with the Cloud team for items outside the Databricks VPC boundary; translate technical needs into clear implementation requirements and validate changes end-to-end.

Ways of Working - Owns outcomes end-to-end (hands-on fixes inside the VPC; drives changes outside the boundary through the Cloud team). - Strong operational mindset prioritizes stability, clear communication, and measurable prevention of repeat incidents. - Documents and standardizes runbooks, network diagrams, and repeatable change patterns.
