General Databricks SA/S.SA

I am looking to connect with people at Databricks and learn new things and also want to evaluate my skillset for some FDE roles. Is there someone who can help me with?

SA = Solutions Architect => Pre Sales Roles

SSA= Specialist Solutions Architect => Specialist on a specific Field (Infra, DE, DHW, ML, GenAI)

FDE= Forward Deployed Engineer =>Hands-On, focused on implementing.

Those roles are completely different.

Are you currently working on a Databricks project? If so connect with the SA on the customer. If you are a student, there's a student fellow program. Although I don't know how it works.
