About this 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.

About this listing

Published on Ashby under the board identifier Clera, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.

RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.

Published 14 October 2026, last checked yesterday. A posting stops being advertised here 90 days after the employer published it, and one the employer takes down is marked closed rather than quietly removed.
