Develop Python and SQL based processes to ingest, clean, and warehouse data from servicing systems, remittance files, borrower reporting, property operating statements, rent rolls, market data, and internal portfolio management tools.
Design data visualizations, reports, and analyses that connect information across the loan, property, tenant, borrower, deal, and bond levels to support surveillance, reporting, valuation, and asset-level decision-making.
Implement workflow automation to improve the team’s ability to oversee large portfolios, identify outliers, and focus asset management attention on credits that require follow-up or deeper review. Partner closely with asset management professionals to translate real estate debt workflows into scalable tools and solutions.
Utilize large language models (LLMs) to enhance data extraction, coding efficiency, process automation, and internal workflow design, with appropriate controls and human oversight.
Support the loan onboarding and abstraction process, focusing on the abstraction of unstructured data fields from legal documents and underwriting materials so that debt investments can be efficiently monitored over time.

Continuously identify opportunities to improve the efficiency, scalability, and analytical depth of the Debt Asset Management Team.
