About The Position

We are looking for a Contract Data Engineer specializing in Pricing Systems to join our team. In this role, you aren’t just moving data; you are building the infrastructure that calculates real-time mortgage rates for thousands of families. You will manage the flow of financial data from secondary markets and internal systems into our proprietary pricing engines, ensuring AFC remains the leader in competitive interest rates and superior service.

Requirements

Advanced proficiency in Python and SQL is required.
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where data uptime is critical to daily operations.

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with mortgage pricing variables (FICO, LTV, DTI, LLPA) is highly preferred.
Experience building real-time or near-real-time data pipelines using Apache Airflow, Kafka, or dbt.
Hands-on experience with cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Snowflake, or Azure).
A high degree of comfort with financial logic and "pricing-math" to ensure rate accuracy.

Responsibilities

Develop and maintain automated data pipelines that ingest daily interest rate sheets and market data.
Build "pricing-ready" datasets that integrate internal loan data with external market trends.
Optimize the performance of our Pricing Engine's data retrieval to ensure instant quote generation for Loan Officers.
Implement rigorous data validation checks to prevent "pricing errors" before they reach the consumer.
Collaborate with the Secondary Marketing and Capital Markets teams to translate complex pricing models into scalable code.
Ensure all data handling meets AFC’s strict security standards and federal financial regulations.
