作者本周加入Databricks,原本计划再次创业,但被Databricks AI的创业文化所吸引。Ali Ghodsi等创始人仍处于"创始人模式",团队聚集众多前创始人。Databricks AI团队AI采用率极高,工程师普遍重度使用AI并探索agent应用。此外,员工享有无限Claude Code和Codex tokens的使用权限。
Life update: I joined Databricks this week!
I thought I'd do another startup after Hyperbolic, but I was surprised by how startup-y Databricks AI is.
@alighodsi, @pwendell, @matei_zaharia are in full founder mode. They're the best founders I've met. I like working with people who aren't "normal" and they definitely aren't. For example, they invited me to an all-hands before I joined.
I'm also impressed by how many former founders are here. @akhilgupta and @hanlintang are incredible leaders.
A big bonus: I finally have unlimited Claude Code & Codex tokens!
AI adoption on the Databricks AI team is insanely high. Every engineer I've met uses AI heavily and shares their own ways to drive agents. Many talented people here.
I'm super pumped for this new journey!
