The role focuses on connecting fragmented real estate systems into trusted data foundations and building AI-powered capabilities for portfolio analysis, reporting, and operational decision-making. You will work closely with engineering, data, architecture, and client leadership teams to turn complex business needs into practical, scalable solutions. You will also guide platform transitions, including data migration, training, and handover.

Establish gate criteria, supporting evidence, and acceptance requirements with clients before project sign-off; manage scope changes and clearly identify work for future delivery cycles.

Define value baselines with client finance teams and track measurable outcomes throughout each engagement.

Prioritize reliable data foundations by coordinating source mapping,

Facilitate workshops with asset management, finance, investor relations, deal teams, and technology stakeholders to define reporting needs, KPIs, view specifications, and acceptance criteria.

Partner with engineering and data science teams to identify appropriate AI use cases, including agent-based data mapping, document extraction, retrieval with cited sources, and automated commentary drafting.

Ensure financial reporting remains based on fixed, auditable calculations approved by the client.

Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for executive sponsors, business owners, and technology leads, communicating progress clearly and escalating risks early.

Lead incumbent platform retirement activities, including historical data migration, parallel runs, sign-off, and transition planning.

Coordinate role-based user training and ensure complete documentation and operational knowledge transfer to the client's platform owner.
