AI Real Estate Valuation Engineer

Natalie Petrov

Full-time · Job · New_York

About the role

Automated property valuation models (AVMs) are used by banks, insurers, and real estate platforms to estimate property values without a physical appraisal. Our AVM is used for 2 million valuations per year, and being 5% more accurate than the competition means our clients save billions in risk-adjusted capital. You'll lead model development for our AVM: combining structured data (comparable sales, tax records, property features) with unstructured signals (satellite imagery, neighborhood text descriptions, local market sentiment). The model ensemble uses gradient boosting for structured features and deep learning for unstructured inputs. Accuracy and explainability are equally important — regulators require that every valuation be explainable, so you'll also build the interpretability layer that tells a bank examiner exactly why a property was valued at a specific number.

Responsibilities

  • Lead development of automated property valuation models
  • Combine structured and unstructured data signals in ensemble architectures
  • Build explainability features for regulatory compliance
  • Design evaluation frameworks measuring valuation accuracy by geography and property type
  • Present model methodology to banking regulators and client risk teams

Requirements

  • 5+ years in ML or data science with real estate or financial modeling experience
  • Strong PyTorch and scikit-learn skills for ensemble model development
  • Experience with model interpretability techniques (SHAP, partial dependence)
  • SQL proficiency for large-scale property data analysis
  • Comfort presenting technical methodology to non-technical regulators

Benefits

  • Fully remote — US time zones
  • Senior compensation with annual performance bonus
  • Full benefits including 401k match
  • Impact on $2M+ annual property valuations
