Climb is the Databricks-native Data & AI consultancy that builds production-grade enterprise AI by focusing on the data foundation, outcome-aligned fixed-scope engagements, and senior delivery teams. They offer Databricks Basecamps—guided, time-boxed projects that move AI or data modernization priorities from diagnostic to production in weeks—plus solutions, fixed-price projects, and dedicated teams. Climb emphasizes Databricks engineering, governance (Unity Catalog), migrations, AI/ML, next-gen analytics, and agent deployments, with reusable IP (Climb AI Runtime), senior Databricks-certified staff, and measurable KPIs for each engagement.

📋 Description

• Own delivery outcomes across the portfolio: quality, client satisfaction, on-time delivery, and engagement-level gross margin. • Run the pod model: capacity planning, staffing, and utilization management that balances billable leverage with sustainable pace. • Build and own the agentic delivery OS, the internal platform of agents, accelerators, and playbooks that compounds Climb’s delivery leverage with every engagement. Set its roadmap, staff it, and ship it. • Instrument delivery with hard metrics (margin per pod, revenue per practitioner, delivery predictability, cycle time) and manage the organization against them. • Establish quality systems: engagement health reviews, QA gates, and an escalation model that catches problems before clients do. • Partner with sales on scoping, estimation, and pricing discipline so we win work we can deliver profitably. • Hire and develop Engagement Leads, technical leads, and practice talent; design growth paths that keep A-players advancing without adding management bloat. • Codify how Climb delivers into repeatable methodology and reusable IP that raises the floor of every engagement. • Serve as executive sponsor and final escalation point for strategic accounts.

🎯 Requirements

• 15+ years in professional services or consulting delivery, including 5+ years running a delivery organization with P&L accountability. • Track record managing services economics at scale: utilization, realization, and gross margin across a multi-engagement portfolio ($20M+ services revenue or 50+ practitioners). • Deep technical credibility in data and AI: you have delivered data platform, ML, or applied AI programs and can hold your own with principal engineers. • Demonstrated experience building internal tooling, enablement, or delivery platforms: you treat delivery capability as a product, not a binder. • Hands-on fluency with AI-assisted development and agentic tooling: you have strong, current opinions about what agents can and cannot do in a delivery context, formed by using them. • Experience scaling a services organization through rapid growth without quality or margin erosion.

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive base salary with performance-based bonuses and meaningful executive equity • MacBook Pro and swag kit so you can do your best work • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance • Generous holidays, flexible PTO, and remote-first work environment • Professional development budget including Databricks and cloud certifications • Spot bonuses for relevant certifications • Conference attendance and thought leadership opportunities • Collaborative, low-ego culture with direct access to leadership • Opportunity to shape a growing practice from the ground floor
