About the role

About the Role

Join an early-stage construction technology team building AI-powered tools that help people interpret blueprints and make construction workflows more efficient. As the Founding Engineer, you will shape the initial product experiences, working across the stack to make computer vision insights useful and accessible to customers.

What You'll Do

  • Build intuitive, polished interfaces that present computer vision model outputs and make complex data easy to understand.
  • Work with geometric data and streaming pipelines while designing interactions for real construction workflows.
  • Develop prototypes quickly, then refine them in response to direct user feedback and real-world usage.
  • Contribute across the stack, from React interfaces to Python backend systems, to move product development forward.

What We're Looking For

  • Open to candidates across experience levels, including early-career engineers and those with 10+ years of experience; demonstrated ability to take a product from 0 to 1 is essential.
  • Strong React and TypeScript skills, with the ability to contribute across the full stack.
  • Proficiency in Python and comfort solving open-ended, math-oriented problems.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals or an exceptional project portfolio demonstrating equivalent depth.
  • Experience building customer-facing products and improving them through user feedback.
  • Founder, founding engineer, or early-stage startup experience is helpful, as is familiarity with construction, real estate, PDF workflows, or Tailwind CSS.
  • Clear, empathetic communication and genuine interest in improving housing affordability.
  • US citizenship is required.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: $100,000 to $180,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.

Location

On-site in San Francisco, California, five days per week.
