LivCor, a Blackstone portfolio company, is a real estate asset management business specializing in multi-family housing. Formed in 2013 and headquartered in Chicago, LivCor is currently responsible for a portfolio of over 400 Class A and B properties comprising more than 150,000 units in markets across the United States. 

Our business is focused on making real estate more valuable. But for us, it’s more than that. It’s people first, community always. It’s a life-filled career, not just a career-filled life. It’s doing good work, with good humans, and making a difference. It’s excellence in all its forms. Ultimately, we create great places to work, live, and grow. We do that by focusing on leaving people – and places – better than we found them.

Whew! Still with us? Cool. Let’s talk about where you’d fit in. 

Here’s the deal: 

Our Technology Internship was created to develop and invest in future talent. We call them interns but really we are talking about future leaders. These super cool humans are hired for a 10-week immersive experience where they learn the fundamentals of financial planning, analysis, and reporting in addition to experiencing the culture of LivCor (which, by the way, is pretty great).

During the ’internship’, you would support a range of projects that directly help our business grow and become even better. We immediately welcome you as a part of our collaborative culture and give you the opportunity to build enduring relationships with your fellow interns, team leader, and assigned mentor.

You also have the opportunity to meet a lot of interesting people through organized social events (we desperately don’t want you to think we are talking about networking because that really doesn’t capture what you can get out of this). Finally, you will work with an assigned mentor to own a project and knock the executive leadership team’s fancy no-show socks off. You may work on other things that we haven’t thought of because our crystal ball is broken and we’re pretty flexible here.

This position is based out of LivCor’s headquarters at Willis Tower in Chicago, IL. This office has snacks and potentially will very shortly have Nerf Guns if the team gets its way. Our 2024 summer analyst internship program will begin June 2024 and last through August 2024. To be eligible, you must be a rising senior college student during the time of the internship program. (To the group of Racoons in a hoody and Vans masquerading as a student, please do not apply again, we saw through that last year. Humans only, plz and thx).

Here is some of the technical stuff the numbers nerds (said with love) think you might work on: 

• Support analysis of the current operating environment to benchmark with company objectives to identify success or gaps
• Explore data from multiple disparate data sources and develop quality metrics
• Develop efficient data pipelines to support data driven decisions at speed
• Perform data analytics to develop insights and trends
• Apply machine learning algorithms to generate predictive analytics on data
• Develop and nurture deep relationships with all functional teams and external stakeholders to ‘understand their reality’ and identify opportunities to adjust course and unlock value

• Identify areas of hidden value, provide a mechanism for growth, or help craft programs that establish competitive advantage
• Develop and grow the technology plan and support initiatives that provide clarity across the organization and to investor
• Communicate analyses to key stakeholders within LivCor so that informed, key strategic decisions may be made
• All of that is really important and technically relevant but also like, please be kind and fun and funny. Your soft skills will come in handy here!

Here’s a little about what your background might be: 

• Pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering or related STEM field
• Must be a college, rising senior during the time of the internship program 
• Working knowledge of the following programming skills: Python, SQL
• Fundamental knowledge of databases (e.g MySQL, Postgres), distributed frameworks (e.e MapReduce, Spark) and reporting tools (e.g Tableau)
• Course work or independent projects demonstrating knowledge on machine learning algorithms and statistical models to develop descriptive, prescriptive, and predictive analytics
• Ability to collaborate cross functionally with excellent organizational skills

• The ability to laugh at yourself 
• A commitment to doing things differently and making the world a little bit better 

• Ambition without ego
• A spirit animal is not required but highly recommended
• Ability to work in Chicago in a full-time capacity for 10 weeks, beginning in June of 2024 

What we offer: 

We know that if we take care of our team everything else will fall into place. We aren’t perfect, but we will try to set very clear expectations, always let you know where you stand, and do everything in our power to kickstart your career. 

Our culture and values matter to us. A lot. We’re definitely not serious but we take this stuff seriously, if you get what we mean. We want a place that is an ego-free zone. A place where good people do good things together. It shouldn’t be rocket science in workplaces, but for some reason it still is? We’re absolutely determined to be different, and we think we’re doing a pretty good job at it. We have a CEO who makes fun of himself, and who will encourage you to tell him when he is wrong. In fact, he needs people to – we all do. Supportive challenge is good, it’s how we get better. We like getting better. We also love diversity, of all kinds. We need people who look, sound, speak, love, and exist differently from one another. This isn’t at the end of this paragraph because it’s an afterthought. It’s SO important to us we want it to stand out.

If any of this sounds interesting, then maybe we are a fit. Life is too short to work with people you don’t like. So whatever you do, don’t make that mistake.
