-
Design and implement features across the full development lifecycle: database schema, LLM tuning, evaluation, and UI.
-
Manage evaluations, scoring, and error analysis on new and shipped AI features to ensure quality.
-
Contribute to the workflow harness, decision-trace standard, and evaluation tooling that accelerates shipping new use cases.
-
Build reusable human review and approval surfaces that earn trust in AI output.
-
Model and evolve the construction ontology and project graph, including entity resolution across documents such as BoQs, contracts, and drawings.
-
Design features that link answers to evidence and make decisions auditable and traceable.
-
Extend multi-modal ingestion of unstructured documents, including PDFs, scans, drawings, and 3D models, at scale.
-
Build read/write integrations with customer systems such as document management and ERP platforms to complete workflows end-to-end.
-
Contribute to scalable data pipelines and support native BIM/DWG file processing.
What We're Looking For
-
3 or more years of experience as a full-stack software engineer delivering production-grade applied AI features to customers.
-
Proficiency with TypeScript, Python, and SQL for building full-stack applications.
-
Experience building backend APIs and database schemas using frameworks and ORMs such as Fastify and Prisma, or equivalents.
-
Experience integrating and optimizing LLM APIs (e.g. OpenAI, Azure, Gemini, Cohere, or similar).
-
Experience with cloud infrastructure such as AWS (RDS, S3, Elastic Beanstalk) or equivalent providers.
-
Experience building data pipelines and ETL workflows for processing unstructured data at scale.
-
Experience with vector databases and semantic search implementations.
-
Experience designing and implementing evaluation frameworks and error analysis for AI systems.
-
Experience building internal platform or developer-facing tooling that other engineers build on top of.
-
B2B product experience, ideally in an early-stage startup or as a founder.
-
Strong ownership mindset: comfortable designing and shipping solutions end-to-end in small, accountable teams.
-
Fluent spoken and written English; German is helpful but not required.
-
Familiarity with workflow orchestration tools (e.g. Prefect, Airflow) is a plus.
-
Experience with document processing, OCR, or multi-modal data ingestion is a plus.
-
Experience with observability and monitoring tools (e.g. Datadog, Langfuse) is a plus.
