Pandoc not converting tables properly

Using pandoc, I'm trying to convert a file from markdown format to PDF, it doesn't seem to be translating the tables properly. For example, I have the following in the markdown file:

><table>
> <tr>
>   <th>Name</th>
>   <th>Type</th>
>   <th>Description</th>
>   <th>Example</th>
> </tr>
> <tr>
>   <td><strong>an-integer</strong></td>
>   <td><em>Integer</em></td>
>   <td>A 64-bit Number</td>
>   <td><code>"12346"</code></td>
> </tr>
></table>

I'm using the tool as follows:

pandoc -f markdown -o schema.pdf schema.md --latex-engine=/usr/local/texlive/2014basic/bin/x86_64-darwin/pdflatex --toc --base-header-level=1 -s -S

What am I missing?

Pandoc has a few different approaches to table syntax, but your code matches none of them. Try for example:

Name             Type         Description        Example
----             ----         -----------        -------
**an-integer**   *Integer*    A 64-bit Number    `12346`
