Job Description

WHAT WE DO AT MARKETPLACE DESIGN

As the gathering hub for all real estate participants (home seekers, owners, intermediaries, etc.), the marketplace’s main success factor is providing the highest standards in terms of safety, accuracy, relevance, efficiency and quality of the interactions between each of these participants. Many factors impact the quality of the marketplace experience; the most significant one is the quality, sincerity, and engagement of the marketplace users themselves, and the content and information (sale / rent listings, buyers projects descriptions, agencies presentations etc.) they produce through their usage.

The Marketplace Design team’s role is to design and develop all curation, penalty/reward, gamification, rating, scoring, and matching mechanisms that ensure our users' engagement is constantly increasing, and the quality of our content is constantly improving. We term this the Marketplace Dynamics.

Since the majority of these capabilities are heavily data-driven, the Marketplace Design teams are also responsible for Data Governance, Modeling, Quality and the Data Platform and key Data-sets management for all of AVIV. We term this as Data Operations.

Your Responsibilities

As a (Senior) Data Engineer in the Iron team of Marketplace Dynamics, and collaborating closely with all the members of your team, you will work on qualifying, rating, and scoring user behaviors, from data collection strategy to the delivery of heavily data driven capabilities intended to be integrated into the final user experiences. You're responsible for creating the “perfect fit feeling” for anyone who uses the Aviv marketplace. Whether the user is a buyer, a seller, an agent, a promoter, a landlord, or a service provider, the homes, leads, or services they’re offered must help achieve their real estate project or effortlessly run their business. You deliver heavily data powered matching, sorting, advertising and yield management capabilities to steer the final user experience to their fulfillment.

As a senior team member, you enhance the technical data/ML stack and assist your fellow engineers in improving their skills.

  • Constantly achieve excellence as a software craftsman.
  • Share knowledge and remain open to new ideas.
