What You’ll Do

We’re looking for someone genuinely exceptional: not broadly experienced, but specifically excellent in a way you can name and prove. This role is for a data engineer who can walk into a platform someone else built, work out what is actually wrong with it, and decide what to fix first.

You’ll join a small, senior Data & Analytics team at a real estate investment firm that has built a sophisticated data platform on Snowflake, pulling together 40+ data sources. Your job is to stabilize the environment, make reporting reliable, and automate the manual work, so that people can focus on the investment and operating decisions that matter.

- Transactions: buy/sell decisions, commercial leasing, and valuation
- Reporting and source of truth: benchmarks, fund and asset performance, and management reporting
- Day-to-day decision making: giving teams faster, better access to the information they need to run the business

What You’ll Do

We’re looking for someone genuinely exceptional: not broadly experienced, but specifically excellent in a way you can name and prove. This role is for a data engineer who can walk into a platform someone else built, work out what is actually wrong with it, and decide what to fix first.

You’ll join a small, senior Data & Analytics team at a real estate investment firm that has built a sophisticated data platform on Snowflake, pulling together 40+ data sources. Your job is to stabilize the environment, make reporting reliable, and automate the manual work, so that people can focus on the investment and operating decisions that matter.

Your work will support three areas of the business:

- Transactions: buy/sell decisions, commercial leasing, and valuation
- Reporting and source of truth:



benchmarks, fund and asset performance, and management reporting
- Day-to-day decision making: giving teams faster, better access to the information they need to run the business

You’ll work directly with the client’s technical and business teams, assess whether the platform is as strong as it looks, and raise the standard around you through code review, documentation, and the willingness to push back when something isn’t right.

What we’re looking for

Depth in data engineering is the starting point. Beyond that we’re looking at judgment: knowing which problem to solve first in an environment with a lot of moving parts, and being able to explain that choice to people who aren’t engineers. We also pay attention to how AI shows up in the way you work.

You must bring:

- 5+ years in data engineering, with real ownership of a production platform rather than contributing to someone else’s
- Hands‑on Snowflake: warehouse sizing and cost management, MERGE patterns, streams and tasks, clustering
- Experience diagnosing and fixing pipelines you didn’t write: slow queries, unexplained cost, silent data quality failures
- Experience designing, implementing, and maintaining ETL/ELT pipelines and data integration across many sources
- Strong data modeling: stating and enforcing grain, clean layering from raw through staging to marts,



handling corrections and late‑arriving data
- Advanced SQL, including window functions and query performance work
- Experience with a transformation framework (dbt or equivalent) and an orchestrator (Airflow, Dagster, or similar)
- A working relationship with AI that shows up in how you build, not just in the tools you’ve tried
- Comfort owning work end to end: from design through deployment and support
- A quality mindset: clean code, good documentation, thoughtful testing, and attention to data quality and lineage
- Strong English communication, async collaboration skills, and a proactive approach to problems
- The ability to understand the business behind the data, not just the ticket in front of you

Bonus points for asset management or commercial real estate experience, familiarity with systems such as Yardi, MRI, RealPage, Argus, VTS, or CoStar, building analytics‑ready models for BI tools (Power BI in particular), AWS Glue or EMR alongside Snowflake, exposure to workflow automation tools (Power Automate, UiPath), and a track record of mentoring other engineers.
