Senior Software Development Engineer, Big Data

About the role

The Zillow Group's Housing Trends Data Engineering team brings innovative analysis, creativity, and excellence to the U.S. housing market. We create, productionalize, analyze, and share a full collection of housing metrics and analysis for Zillow's internal and external customers. Our work contextualizes Zillow's unparalleled living database of all homes and hundreds of millions of customers to provide insight to everyday consumers and open data to hundreds of researchers and policymakers across the country. You'll work in a fun, collaborative atmosphere with a high-performance team with diverse data engineering and analytical skills. Your work will be highly impactful. The data we create ends up in the nation's most reputable publications, used by government institutions in policy-making and official reports, in public-facing tools used by millions of Zillow consumers, and in the work of hundreds of academic researchers. Small team = big impact. Engineering teams are highly decentralized in order to create the small team speed and autonomy of a start-up environment but are backed by big company resources. We process hundreds of millions of data points to produce macroeconomic housing market indicators, forecasts, and insights. We publish those so businesses, policymakers, and individuals can make informed decisions about homes. We are also an integral part of housing market intelligence for our internal businesses, and an important input into tactical and strategic business decisions with customers across the company (from marketing, finance, business unit ML teams, to executives). We are looking for a strong engineer who will be working closely with the data science and forecasting teams, and our customers to help us re-shape our rapidly-evolving data products and the end-to-end data processing framework. You will have great opportunities to learn cutting-edge ecosystems, and cloud technologies, and work with a group of versatile software developers in a collaborative and supportive team environment.
