Databricks MVP

Eddie Edgeworth, Databricks MVP and Senior Principal Architect at Koantek, is recognized for his deep technical expertise and his relentless drive to help enterprises unlock the full potential of the Lakehouse. With over two decades of experience in data architecture, governance, and AI enablement, Eddie has become a trusted voice within the Databricks community.

At Koantek, Eddie leads some of the most complex enterprise migrations to Databricks, transforming legacy data ecosystems into governed, high-performing Lakehouse environments. His leadership in building frameworks like AscendAI, X2D, and Lakehouse in a Month has enabled organizations to accelerate adoption, reduce costs, and achieve real business outcomes.

Beyond delivery, Eddie actively contributes to the Databricks ecosystem through thought leadership, enablement workshops, and community mentorship. His hands-on approach and passion for continuous learning make him not just a technical leader, but a true ambassador of Databricks innovation.

Being a Databricks Champion goes beyond mastering the platform,  it’s about advancing the data and AI community through leadership, collaboration, and innovation. Champions are practitioners who embody the spirit of the Lakehouse: open, unified, and transformative.

Databricks Champions drive impact by:

  • Sharing knowledge: Contributing to community discussions, best-practice sessions, and enablement content.
  • Driving innovation: Building and scaling real-world solutions on Databricks that push the boundaries of what’s possible with data and AI.
  • Leading by example: Guiding peers and customers toward governed, scalable architectures that accelerate business transformation.

At its core, being a Champion is about amplifying the Lakehouse mission — empowering every organization to make better, faster, and more secure decisions through data and AI.

“Koantek is unique. The Koantek team’s technical competency is stellar. Furthermore, their ability to complement their technical skills with the ability to listen, emphasize with customers’ needs, and offer solutions and services cut right to the point. Their project management excellence not only focuses on on-time delivery, but also provides unparalleled transparency throughout the project’s progress and helps us manage the timeline and coordinate related activities. When I need Spark expertise to supplement my team’s work, Koantek is one of the few partners I have full confidence in delivering both quality of work and smooth integration with my team’s broader deliveries.”
