Denna tekniska roll kräver erfarenhet av molnarkitektur, fullstack/backend-utveckling och datateknik med Databricks och Python.

Responsibilities

Implement and maintain secure, scalable cloud architectures for real estate and smart building solutions on GCP, Azure or AWS.
Build and operate the data lake / lakehouse (e.g. Databricks, Delta Lake) for building, IoT, IWMS and business data, including ingestion, modelling and governance.
Develop batch and streaming pipelines in Python / PySpark and SQL for time-series sensor data, BMS data and system integrations.
Integrate IoT device connectivity and smart building systems (BMS, energy meters, occupancy and environmental sensors) using protocols such as MQTT, BACnet and OPC UA.
Build APIs, microservices and, where needed, web front-ends that expose building data and insights to users and other systems (including the IWMS / Planon).
Lead the technical workstream on large, multi-site projects – from solution design and estimation through build, rollout and handover to operations.
Set up CI/CD, infrastructure as code, monitoring and automated testing; ensure security, reliability and cost efficiency.
Enable dashboards, KPIs and advanced analytics/ML use cases such as energy optimisation, predictive maintenance and space utilisation.

Python: Intermediate Python skills for data engineering and back-end development.
Databricks: Hands-on experience with Databricks (PySpark, Delta Lake, workflows, Unity Catalog).
Data background: Good data engineering experience – data lakes / lakehouses, ETL/ELT, streaming and time-series data.
IoT & smart buildings: Experience with IoT platforms and smart building systems, including device data ingestion and building protocols.
DevOps: Experience with CI/CD, Git, containers (Docker / Kubernetes) and infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform).

Desired Qualifications

Real estate / retail: Experience in real estate, facility management or retail environments with many sites.
Experience integrating with IWMS / CAFM systems such as Planon.
Digital twin or BIM-based platforms.
Machine learning / MLOps (MLflow) for energy optimisation and predictive maintenance.
Energy management, ESG and sustainability reporting.
BI tools such as Power BI, Looker or Tableau.

Benefits

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science or equivalent experience.
Cloud certifications such as Google Professional Cloud Architect, Azure Solutions Architect Expert or AWS Solutions Architect – Professional are a plus.
Databricks certifications (e.g. Data Engineer Professional) are a plus.
