Alternative asset manager with $1.3T AUM across real estate, private equity, and credit
Blackstone operates a finance-heavy organization (171 finance roles, 348 open positions) migrating from SQL Server to Snowflake while scaling fund onboarding, valuation, and reporting automation. The leadership gap in engineering (14 roles, mostly mid-level) relative to finance underscores a company in transition from manual operational workflows toward data infrastructure — evident in active projects around regulatory reporting, insurance platforms, and recurring deliverable automation.
