I’ve had the opportunity to be part of @databricks for over 11 years and @Yuchenj_UW is right - @alighodsi ‘s attention to detail, at times contrarian view, and desire to get his hands dirty in the code is what makes him unique and Databricks an amazing place!

What makes Ali Ghodsi, CEO of @databricks, so unique?

I asked @Yuchenj_UW what surprised him most about working with @alighodsi after joining. His answer:

1. His attention to detail. When they have a product launch email group, Ali literally reviews and comments on every new product feature.

2. No matter when or where he is, he somehow manages to reply within 20 minutes. He’s in meetings all day, with many people texting him, but somehow he always does it.

These are the CEO traits that can't be taught. They come from a deeper place.
