Databricks Solution Architect interview questions

The process was long but extremely punctual, with all rounds being concluded over the course of 2 weeks. Initial rounds were comprehensive, discussing my experience and expertise etc., but also simultaneously completing a take home task, with a final presentation round to complete the process.

This was for a SA role in the Federal Civilian space. I was quickly connected to the hiring manager virtually. Not a tech screen. He wanted to mainly know what Qs I had. He wanted to know if I was more interested in a "hands-on" keyboard role or "guide" role. I mentioned that I prefer more "hands-on" roles but I am open to the "guide" role as it would still be very focused on data solutions. He suggested I talk to the RSA managers and if that doesn't work out we can continue where we left. I thought that was okay, so we ended it at that. After that, I never heard back on my application (positive or negative). One odd thing was the manager asked about my comfort level for working late hours/weekends. I have never been asked that question but I answered in the affirmative ("as needed") as it happens from time to time. In any case, I asked them to withdraw my application as I got a great offer from Snowflake which was also in the works at the time. My gut feeling tells me the manager was making judgements based on his biases (like age or other having kids) that were not facts or ever having worked with me. The manager appeared to be much younger than me on the video call. That said, Databricks is a great company at least their product and what I see on GD reviews, and this may be one off.
