About Winston Artory Group
About Winston Artory Group
WAG is transforming how art and collectibles are valued, managed, and traded. Born from the merger of Winston Art Group (the largest independent appraisal and advisory firm in the U.S.) and Artory (a pioneer in art tokenization), we combine deep industry expertise with technologies like AI and blockchain to modernize a $2.9 trillion global asset class.
We're already generating significant revenue and recently raised our Series A from top-tier VCs. Now, we're building the next-generation platform to unlock liquidity, trust, and intelligence in the art market—and we're looking for exceptional engineers to help us do it.
The Role
We're hiring a Senior Data Engineer to architect and scale the systems that power our AI-driven valuation tools, market analytics, and collector insights. You'll lead development of our data ingestion pipelines, enrichment workflows, and metadata infrastructure—from scraping and parsing messy real-world sources to preparing structured datasets that feed public indices, machine learning models and collector-facing tools.
This is a high-ownership role for someone who thrives at the intersection of data engineering, AI integration, and real-world asset intelligence. You'll work closely with backend engineers, domain experts, and product leadership to turn fragmented data into a competitive advantage.
What you'll do
Design and operate scalable data ingestion and web scraping systems
Build batch and real-time pipelines to normalize, enrich, and version data across structured and unstructured sources
Develop systems to support LLM- and ML-based document parsing, OCR, and classification
Own the architecture of our data storage and processing stack, including PostgreSQL, data lakes, and data warehouses
Operationalize AI/ML workflows by preparing clean training and inference datasets with robust lineage, validation, and error handling
Integrate output with backend APIs, valuation services, and frontend analytics dashboards
Collaborate across engineering and product to ship reliable, intelligent features quickly
Contribute to our infrastructure tooling, including CI/CD, IaC (Terraform), and data observability
