## About Cobalt

Cobalt is a private equity-backed company aiming to build the most impactful business in the commercial access and security industry (access control systems, video surveillance systems, intrusion detection systems and other low voltage systems integration). Cobalt is backed by Alpine Investors, a private equity firm specializing in middle market companies in the services and software industries and with $15bn+ of AUM. Just two years after launching, Cobalt has successfully acquired 21 partner companies and established itself as one of the leading platforms in a highly attractive and fragmented industry that is benefitting from substantial secular growth tailwinds.

## The role

Every partner company arrives with years of data in systems that were never built to talk to ours. Getting the core tech stack implementation right is key to achieving our organizational goals. As Cobalt continues to acquire new companies, this role is the linchpin that turns a signed deal into a fully operating, data-accurate part of the platform.

The Data Integration Lead owns the end-to-end data migration process for every company - from initial data discovery through go-live and post-launch hypercare - ensuring each company’s data is onboarded cleanly, accurately, and on schedule. It's understanding how each business operates, and knowing which data decisions will help or hurt them and the finance close. You start from a strong foundation, make it faster, and then grow the role into reporting and analysis. This is a highly cross-functional, high-visibility position with direct exposure to Finance, Operations, and executive leadership.

## What you'll do

- Run end-to-end data migration for technology implementations: be the main point person for data migrations from legacy systems to new systems, including data discovery calls, data extraction, cleansing, mapping, validation, and import into new systems
- Project manage the migration: maintain a clear migration tracker across all in-flight integrations, flag risks to leadership, track open items to resolution, and lead post-launch check-ins to catch and fix data issues early
- Partner cross-functionally with Finance, Sales/Operations, and portfolio company leadership to ensure migrated data supports reporting, billing, and day-to-day operations without disruption
- Own playbooks and standards: including data mapping standards, migration playbooks, and lessons learned after each integration to make each subsequent acquisitions faster and lower-risk
- Manage extractions using SQL and secure data transfers (e.g., cloud blob storage) as part of migration handoffs; validate imported data against source-of-truth files

## What you bring

- 2 to 5 years in an operations analyst, business intelligence, data, or chief-of-staff role, or in consulting environment with hands-on data work.
- 2+ years of experience in data migration, systems implementation, or integration engineering — ideally supporting M&A integrations, acquisitions, or multi-entity rollups.
- Hands-on experience with messy operational and financial data; field-service management platform strongly preferred; experience with Sage or similar accounting/ERP systems a plus.
- Clear written and verbal communication with non-technical audiences — comfortable leading discovery calls with newly acquired sellers' teams and reporting status to internal leadership.
- Working depth in Excel and SQL, comfortable working directly with databases and checking data against source files, with AI tools used to speed up the work.
- Field-service platform and ERP experience, such as ServiceTitan or ConnectWise and Sage Intacct or QuickBooks, so you know where transactions and inventory live in each.
- Finance literacy, enough to read financial statements and reconcile open AR and AP, invoices, and payments when an import looks wrong.
- Reports and dashboards that answer a business question, not just display a table.

It helps if you have

- A finance, accounting, or engineering background. Strong work signals matter more than the degree.
- Experience with Power BI or CRM data.
- Time in a multi-location service or trades business, or on a team that integrated acquisitions.
- Consulting work in areas like procurement, spend analysis, workforce planning, or annual operating plans.

## What we offer

- Targeting $110k - $120k base salary plus bonus potential (actual offer based on experience)
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) with company match
- PTO plus paid holidays
- Professional development support and opportunities
- The chance to shape the data integration playbook for a fast-growing platform backed by a PE sponsor committed to long-term growth

## About Cobalt Service Partners

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Cobalt Service Partners is a permanent home for market-leading commercial access and security businesses, acquiring and supporting them while preserving their local brands and culture.
- **Entity Type**: Private (backed by Alpine Investors)
- **Headquarters**: New York, New York, United States
- **Founded**: Not publicly available (likely founded in the 2020s)
- **Founders**: Tyler Hoffman (Co-Founder & Co-CEO); another co-founder is not named on public sources.

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Facilities Services / Commercial Access & Security
- **Target customers**: B2B – specifically owners of commercial access and security companies (door installation, access control, video surveillance) looking for a long-term acquisition partner; and their end customers (businesses needing commercial door and security services).
- **Mission statement**: “Securing legacies, unlocking possibility.”

## Products & Services
Cobalt Service Partners does not offer a single product to end users. Instead, it provides a platform for acquired companies via its "buy and build" model:

- **Acquisition & Stewardship**: Buys market-leading commercial access and security businesses, keeping their local brands, leadership, and culture intact.
- **Operational Support**: Provides hands-on help with recruiting (especially technicians, sales, leadership), training and professional development, finance and accounting, compliance, and technology implementation.
- **People Development**: Offers access to learning programs, training hubs, and a national network of peers for employees of partner companies.
- **Long-Term Home**: Positions itself as a permanent owner (not a flip or roll-up into a bureaucratic machine), allowing founders to exit while preserving their legacy.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not disclosed as a private company.
- **Key Metric**: Headcount of 55 employees (as of mid-2026), with strong growth: +25.7% YoY.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by **Alpine Investors**, a values-driven investment firm.
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Acquired at least three companies: **Automatic Entrances of Wisconsin** (Sep 2024), **Digi Security Systems** (Jun 2024), and **Piedmont Door Solutions** (date not specified).
  - Portfolio includes 16+ partner companies across the US (Toepfer Security, i-Tech Security, Homeland Safety Systems, etc.).
  - Rapid LinkedIn follower growth: +110.6% year-over-year, now at 10,850 followers.
  - Actively hiring with 22 open positions across finance, operations, M&A, and field technician roles.

## Competitive Advantages
- **People-first stewardship**: Unlike typical private equity roll-ups that cut costs and centralize, Cobalt preserves local brands, leadership, and culture.
- **Long-term ownership model**: Described as a “permanent home” for acquired businesses, not a flip. This builds trust with sellers who fear losing their legacy.
- **Alpine Investors backing**: Access to capital, talent networks, and operational expertise from a well-known PE firm committed to "building enduring businesses by investing in and developing exceptional people."
- **Niche focus**: Concentrates solely on commercial access and security, allowing deep domain expertise and targeted support.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current priorities**: Scaling the portfolio through further acquisitions, building out operational infrastructure (recruiting, training, finance), and strengthening the network of partner companies.
- **Direction for growth**: Expand geographic footprint and service offerings by acquiring more market-leading companies in the same space, while investing heavily in the development of their people and technology.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Emphasizes a "people-first" ethos, stewardship, and "love learning" values. The company aims to create fulfilling, long-term homes for employees.
- **Growth Opportunities**: Employees at partner companies gain access to professional development programs and a national peer network. The company is actively growing (22 open roles), offering career advancement in a fast-scaling environment.
- **Work Model**: Mix of on-site (field technicians, regional roles) and remote (corporate functions: FP&A, Integration Controller). Headquarters in NYC.
- **Notable Perks**: Strong training culture, hands-on recruiting support, and a mission-driven focus on preserving the "blue-collar" roots of the business (named Cobalt to honor blue-collar workers).
- **Engineering/Technical Roles**: Field technicians and sales engineers are in high demand; the company highlights support for these roles as a core strength.
