Data Engineer – Real Estate Analytics

Build the data infrastructure behind products and client decisions in a high-growth real estate data business. This is a hands-on opportunity to own pipelines, warehousing and analytics delivery with direct founder exposure.

The Company

Our small, senior team delivers practical data solutions across a sophisticated client base. You will work from a Soho, London office and have close interaction with founders and senior stakeholders.

The Role

As a Data Engineer, you will combine strong analytical thinking with hands-on data engineering delivery. You will build and maintain the pipelines, warehouse infrastructure and transformations that underpin products and client projects. The role could suit a Data Analyst who has moved into engineering or a technical data consultant with proven delivery experience. You will translate commercial requirements into robust data solutions while shaping how data is structured, transformed and used across the business.

  • Design, build and maintain robust data pipelines across multiple data sources
  • Develop and optimise SQL transformations, data models and analytical datasets
  • Build and maintain scalable data warehouse infrastructure for products and client projects
  • Develop automated data workflows to improve data quality, reliability and accessibility
  • Translate complex business requirements into practical, production-ready data solutions
  • Work closely with founders and senior stakeholders to shape data strategy and delivery
  • Contribute to data architecture, modelling and engineering best practice across the team
  • Troubleshoot pipeline, warehouse and data quality issues, driving improvements through to resolution
  • Support the development of analytical products that turn complex datasets into commercial insight
  • Take ownership of projects from initial requirements through to delivery and ongoing optimisation

Benefits and Perks

  • Direct exposure to founders and senior stakeholders
  • Genuine ownership across products and client data projects
  • Clear progression within a growing, well-backed company
  • Modern Soho office with some flexibility on working pattern
  • Opportunity to shape data strategy for major Real Estate Investment clients

Requirements

  • Strong SQL skills with practical data transformation and modelling experience
  • Hands-on experience building data pipelines, warehouses or related infrastructure
  • Background in Data Analysis with progression into Data Engineering, or technical data consulting experience
  • Commercial or consulting experience and confidence engaging stakeholders
  • STEM degree, ideally Mathematics, Physics or Engineering, at 2:1 or above

Experience with some of the following would be beneficial:

  • Python for data processing, automation or pipeline development
  • dbt for data transformation, modelling and testing
  • Cloud data platforms such as AWS or Azure
  • Data warehouses such as Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift or Databricks
