Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJustin Breese is a Staff Product Manager and former Solutions Architect at Databricks with a decade of experience translating complex big data and runtime challenges into production-grade features for Spark, Photon, SQL APIs, and low-latency query surfaces. He combines deep technical fluency in Spark, Delta Lake, Python/Scala, and large-scale benchmarking with product leadership—taking projects from concept through GA while prioritizing developer experience and demanding SLAs. Prior roles at Databricks and DataStax built his strength in architecting large-scale ingestion-to-deployment pipelines, and his Microsoft tenure honed enterprise sales-engineering, GTM strategy, and cross-org influence for multi-hundred-million-dollar accounts. Based in Los Angeles, he pairs analytical rigor (MS in Information Management Technology, 3.95 GPA) with hands-on engineering and customer advocacy, and outsiders might not expect his penchant for high-performance driving, aircooled Porsches, and craft brewing—activities that reflect his iterative, performance-focused mindset.
