Benefits Diversity Engineering Research Students & new grads Back to search results Sr. Manager, Field Engineering (Specialist) - HCLS Northeast - United States Apply now FEQ327R502 Mission Reporting to the Tech GM of Field Engineering, the Specialist Solutions Architect Manager for Healthcare & Life Sciences (HLS) will lead a high-impact team of Specialist Solutions Architects (SSAs) and SSA Team Leads/Managers across the North East region. You will cultivate, guide, and scale a dynamic organization focused on enterprise software, big data, healthcare interoperability (e.g., FHIR/HL7), clinical/claims analytics, real-world evidence (RWE), and medical AI/ML applications. Leading this specialized pre-sales engine, you will partner closely with Sales leadership to drive consumption, maximize ARR, and help healthcare providers, payers, and pharmaceutical organizations achieve transformational business and patient outcomes. You will scale and operate a world-class tier of field engineers to accelerate Databricks' dominance within the HLS vertical. The Impact You Will Have: Hire, train, and develop a high-performing tier of both individual contributors (IC) and frontline managers/leads within the Specialist Solutions Architecture organization. Maintain a robust, diverse hiring pipeline attuned to deep technical expertise, clinical data structures, and life sciences domain proficiency. Exceed regional sales and consumption targets by ensuring your management and SA teams rigorously qualify accounts, identify high-value genomic, clinical, or operational use cases, execute secure proof-of-concepts, and serve as trusted advisors across the customer lifecycle. Drive deep adoption of the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform, ensuring compliance frameworks (HIPAA, HITRUST, GxP) are properly mapped to outsized business and regulatory value. Establish strong matrixed relationships across Product Management, Engineering, Industry Solutions, and Sales to remove blockers and accelerate go-to-market velocity. What We Look For: 5+ years of leadership experience directly managing technical pre-sales teams, with a proven track record of leading both high-level individual contributors (L6+) and frontline technical managers/pod leads. 5+ years of deep experience in the data and AI space with highly technical platforms (e.g., distributed computing, cloud data warehousing, MLOps, or generative AI infrastructure). Comprehensive understanding of the Healthcare and Life Sciences vertical, including hands-on familiarity with industry data models (OMOP, FHIR), regulatory constraints (HIPAA, GxP), and standard enterprise data integration/transformation patterns. Proven capability as a trusted strategic advisor to HLS technical executives (CTOs, CIOs, Chief Data Officers) guiding large-scale cloud infrastructure and AI roadmap decisions. Elite command of technical qualification methodologies, architecture design validation, structured proof-of-concept (POC) management, and value-selling frameworks. Demonstrated history of organizational scaling—successfully hiring complex profiles, accelerating onboarding cycles, coaching leaders, and managing progression pathways. Strong operational rigor around pipeline tracking, resource allocation, and building cross-functional alignment between Field Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
