Readable role content extracted into sections for faster review.
What You’ll Do
- Build an application that connects to external CRM systems used by acquired agencies, extracts relevant data, and prepares it for migration into Dwelly.
- Work with APIs, exports, files, databases and poorly documented legacy systems.
- Design workflows for cleaning, mapping, normalising, deduplicating, and validating complex CRM data before it enters Dwelly's core platform.
- Build safe import flows with retries, audit logs, dry runs, error handling and manual review where needed.
- Work with entities such as landlords, tenants, properties, tenancies, payments and maintenance records.
- Use LLM APIs pragmatically for schema mapping, data classification, entity matching, exception triage and quality checks.
- Own the platform end to end: architecture, implementation, testing, deployment and production support.
- Work closely with engineering, product, operations and integration teams.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong backend engineering experience with Python.
- Strong practical SQL skills.
- Experience with data migration, ETL/ELT, data processing, system integrations or internal tools.
- Production experience with FastAPI, Django, Flask or similar.
- Experience integrating with external APIs and third-party systems.
- Ability to work with messy, inconsistent or poorly documented datasets.
- Good understanding of data modelling, mapping, validation, deduplication and safe import patterns.
- Good understanding of database transactions, data consistency and production data workflows.
- Experience with Linux, Docker and containerised development.
- Practical experience using AI coding tools and/or LLM APIs.
- Strong ownership mindset and ability to deliver independently under ambiguity.
- Clear communication and ability to work closely with non-engineering stakeholders.
Nice to haves
- Experience with CRM systems, property management systems, fintech, payments or operations platforms.
- Experience with fuzzy matching, entity resolution, confidence scoring or duplicate detection.
- Experience building internal tools for operations, integrations or migration workflows.
- Experience with observability, logging, monitoring and CI/CD.
- Experience testing applications against complex or high-volume datasets.
- Experience with typed languages such as Java, C#, C++, Kotlin, Scala or similar.
- Experience using LLMs for schema mapping, data classification, data extraction or workflow automation.
What Success Looks Like
- Newly acquired agencies can be migrated faster and with fewer manual steps.
- CRM data can be extracted, validated and imported in a repeatable way.
- Data quality issues are detected early and handled safely.
- The migration process becomes more automated, auditable and scalable over time.
- Operations and engineering teams have better visibility and control over migration progress.
Compensation & Benefits:
- Fully remote role.
- Competitive compensation based on experience and impact.
- Opportunity to work on high-leverage automation systems at the intersection of backend engineering, applied ML, data and real operational workflows.
- Competitive salary with the potential for equity options based on performance, recognising exceptional contributions to our integration success.
