About the RoleThis is a founding engineering role at an early-stage construction technology startup using AI to automate blueprint analysis, material takeoffs, and cost estimation. You'll be a core member of a small team, shaping both the product and the engineering culture from the ground up - work that directly impacts how the construction industry approaches pre-construction workflows.
What You'll Do- Build intuitive, polished UIs that surface computer vision model outputs to end users.
- Tackle complex geometry rendering, streaming systems, and sophisticated user interactions.
- Rapidly ship prototypes and iterate continuously based on real user feedback.
What We're Looking For- Proven experience taking products from 0 to 1, ideally with traction or paying customers.
- Strong frontend foundation in React and TypeScript, with solid full-stack capabilities.
- Proficiency in Python and comfort with open-ended, math-oriented problem solving.
- Strong CS fundamentals - an exceptional project portfolio can stand in for a formal degree.
- Experience as a founding engineer or early employee at a startup.
- Familiarity with Tailwind CSS for building responsive, utility-first UIs is a plus.
- Background in construction, real estate, or PDF/document workflows is a bonus.
- Prior founder experience or an impact-driven mindset is highly valued.
- Exceptional recent graduates who are fast learners and highly motivated are encouraged to apply.
- US Citizenship required; visa sponsorship is not available.
