Every week, millions of people turn to us when they’re looking for a new home, or just imagining one. Reaching them with the right message at the right time really matters.
That’s where Martech comes in, right where marketing meets tech. Marketing has plenty of ideas about how we can reach our users in smarter, more relevant ways, and making them happen takes someone who understands both the data and the people behind it.

As our new Data Engineer in Martech, you’ll be the bridge. You’ll translate marketing ideas into technical solutions, and explain technical possibilities and limitations in a way that makes sense to Marketing. You’ll dig into a setup that has grown over time, work out what’s what, and help shape what it should become.

It’s a role with real impact and plenty of room to make your mark. You won’t just be maintaining something. You’ll help build the foundation for more intelligent communication that helps people find their way home.

What you'll be up to 🍏
You’ll support Martech as an area, owning both the day-to-day operation of what we have today and the development of what comes next. Keeping things running is only half the job. The other half is moving us forward, from where we are to where we should be.

In short, you’ll:

• Run and improve our existing Martech setup

• Move logic and content out of our core platform so Marketing can own it our CRM system in Customer.io

• Work closely with Marketing to understand their needs and turn them into solutions

• Build towards smarter, data-driven communication using our real-time platform

Who we think you are 🤩
You’re a self-starter who takes initiative and gets things done without waiting to be told. You also have the people skills to read the room. You check in, ask the right questions and make sure you’re heading in the same direction as everyone else before you run. In addition you’re curious and eager to learn. You enjoy digging deep, untangling tricky problems and figuring out how things actually work.
In short, you’re:

• Flexible. You adapt as things shift, and they will.

• Curious. You want to understand, not just patch.

• Ownership-minded. You take responsibility and follow through.

• A team player. You win with the team, not on your own.
  
  Requirements

• Experience building and running API integrations with external platforms in production, ideally a CRM or marketing platform, including rate limits, monitoring and incident handling.

• Experience working closely with non-technical teams, including turning their needs into technical solutions, explaining trade-offs and setting expectations.

• Strong skills in SQL and data modelling, including event data at volume.

• Experience building and running event-driven data flows, including retries, duplicates, ordering and backfills.

• Hands-on experience with analytical databases or data warehouses.
  
  Bonus

• Experience with TypeScript, Node.js and PostgreSQL, which our current integration service is built on.

• Experience with ClickHouse, BigQuery, dbt, Prefect or Kafka, which our data platform uses.

• Experience integrating with Customer.io, Braze or a similar customer messaging platform.

• Experience with consent, identity across systems and deletion in customer data.

I am your new manager 👋
Hi, I am Helena and will be your new manager. A little about me: I’m engaged and I care about the people around me and about the work we do together. I see each person as an individual, and I see my job as giving you what you need to succeed and grow. That will look different for everyone, so I’ll be asking and listening a lot in the beginning.
You can expect me to be clear and direct, and to bring structure so we know where we’re going and why. I’d rather say things openly than leave you guessing, and I expect you’ll do the same with me.
I believe this team has the potential to deliver the really exciting things, the kind that make Hemnet the very best property portal, and I want us to do more of that. Getting there also takes groundwork, from the platform to data quality, and I’m excited to take that on together with you.
I also have a technical background in data, so I have a pretty good grasp of what goes into the work, and I still enjoy building things myself.

A Note on Inclusion 💚
At Hemnet, we believe that diversity in gender, sexual orientation, ability, neurodiversity, cultural background and life experience makes us stronger. We welcome applicants of all identities and backgrounds.

If you meet many of the requirements (even if you don’t meet all of them), we’d still love for you to apply. We’re big on curiosity, a strong sense of purpose, and a real motivation to learn and grow along with your skills and experience.

A Hybrid Way of Working 🏡
Our vibrant office in central Stockholm is the hub of our collaboration and culture, providing a lively space that fosters team spirit. We come together in the office three days a week, with two flexible remote days. To be part of our team, it’s essential to be based in or near Stockholm.
