Data Engineer / Technical Lead – Real Estate Intelligence Platform

We’re building a proprietary commercial real estate intelligence platform and already have a custom-built CRM in place. Our next phase is focused on strengthening the data foundation and using technology to improve our entire real estate pipeline — from sourcing and analysis through outreach, negotiations, and institutional memory.

We’re looking for a hands-on technical builder to join the team, starting with a paid trial, with the goal of bringing the right person on long-term.

This is not a one-off project or consulting role.

Immediate Priority (Most Important)

Our current bottleneck is incoming data at scale.

We need to:
• Ingest data from many real estate sources
• Cross-reference and reconcile conflicting records
• Enrich incomplete listings
• Identify seller motivation / pressure points
• Do this reliably for 100–1,000+ properties at a time

This data layer is the foundation for everything else.

What You’ll Work On

Data & Intelligence (Primary Focus)
• Expanding and stabilizing multi-source data ingestion (APIs + safe scraping)
• Cross-referencing properties, ownership entities, debt, and listing history
• Enriching missing fields (pricing history, ownership, distress indicators, photos)
• Supporting a property-level data score for confidence and deal readiness

Pipeline & Process Improvement
• Improving how data flows through our deal pipeline
• Helping surface the right opportunities to the right people at the right time
• Supporting institutional memory (past broker/owner interactions and outcomes)

Automation & Communications (Support Role)
• Working alongside existing efforts around:
• AI voice agent development
• Email automation and integrations
• Helping ensure these systems are technically integrated with our data and CRM, even if you’re not the primary owner of those tools

⸻

Tech Stack (Flexible)

Experience with several of the following is important:
• Python and/or Node.js
• Web scraping tools (Apify, APIs, browser-based scrapers)
• PostgreSQL / Supabase-style databases
• Data normalization and schema design
• Workflow automation (n8n, Zapier, similar)

Real estate experience is a plus, not required.

⸻

Trial & Role

We’ll start with a short, paid trial focused on execution and impact.
Strong performance can lead to a long-term role with real ownership in the platform.

How to Apply

Please include:
1. Relevant experience with data-heavy systems
2. Examples of ingestion or cross-referencing work
3. How you’d approach analyzing 1,000 properties at once
4. Confirmation you’re open to a trial-first, long-term role
