Founding Engineer (AI + Geometry / CAD)
ABOUT THE ROLE
Join an early-stage team building AI-first software for architecture and construction, including a new BIM authoring tool designed for AI agents. You will help shape its technical foundations, with the opportunity to grow into a technical leadership role.
WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Develop AI agents that plan and edit real building models.
- Create generative design capabilities that account for building codes and client constraints.

- Hands-on experience with 3D geometry or CAD, such as geometry kernels, B-rep, meshes, CAD APIs, IFC, or Revit.
- Daily practical experience building with LLMs and AI agents.
- A generalist mindset, strong English communication, and experience in a startup or as a founder.
- Experience with Python, PyTorch, TypeScript, or three.js is useful, as is knowledge of AEC, BIM, generative models, or visual data.
- Experience leading engineers or making architecture decisions is a plus.
