Employment Type

Full-time · Mid–Senior

Job Highlights

• Own AVM v1→v2 for Hong Kong, expand to new regions
• Build Property Knowledge Graph (estates/buildings/units/aliases/POIs)
• Design Liveability Index; power search, ranking & SEO
• Ship ML to production with real monitoring & impact

About the Role

You’ll build the core intelligence behind HomeDash—clean, connected data and trustworthy valuations that drive search, discovery, and lead generation. This role blends research depth with product pragmatism: you’ll design models, stand up data pipelines, and put them in users’ hands quickly.

Responsibilities

• AVM: data sourcing, feature engineering, model selection, backtesting, calibration (confidence bands), drift monitoring
• Knowledge Graph : schemas & entity resolution (aliases, addresses, geos), listing de-dup , location standardisation
• Liveability Index : define metrics (transport, schools, amenities, green, noise/air, walkability) and ship to UI/ranking
• Estate/Listing Q&A (RAG) : parsing, chunking, retrieval, evaluation & safety guardrails
• MLOps : batch/real-time inference, monitoring, model registry/feature store; partner closely with our GZ engineering team
• Ground truth & evaluation : labelling guidelines, error analysis, offline/online metrics; clear documentation

What Success Looks Like

• 90 days: AVM v1 (districts) with baseline MAPE & confidence bands; KG v1 with >95% alias resolution on top estates/buildings; liveability framework agreed
• 6 months: AVM v2 uplift; liveability in ranking/filters; RAG QA v1 with eval set & guardrails; model/service monitoring live

Requirements

• Advanced degree or equivalent experience in CS/Stats/Applied Math/EE/Geospatial
• 3–6+ years hands-on ML for tabular & geospatial (time-series/entity resolution a plus)
• Proven end-to-end productisation (experimentation → deployment → monitoring)
• Statistical rigour (calibration, backtesting, bias/fairness) and strong communication
• Language: English required; Cantonese preferred; Mandarin a plus
