Help Build the Future of Engineering Consulting. We are building an AI-native Operating System for Engineering Consulting Firms.
Our platform combines:
AI Agents
Large Language Models
Enterprise Knowledge Management
Workflow Automation
Project Management
Proposal Intelligence
Engineering Decision Support
Resource Planning
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
Business Intelligence
Unlike most AI startups, we are not building software in search of a problem.
Our platform is being developed inside a successful engineering consulting company with over ten years of operational data, thousands of engineering proposals, project records, technical reports, SOPs, and real-world engineering workflows. Every feature is validated through daily production use.
This is an opportunity to help define how engineering consulting firms will operate in the AI era.
About the Role
We are seeking a Founding AI Platform Technical Lead to work directly with the founder in designing and building a next-generation enterprise AI platform.
This is a highly technical, hands-on leadership role.
You will help transform product vision into scalable software architecture while leading the implementation of AI-powered capabilities across our platform.
This position is ideal for someone who enjoys building new products rather than maintaining legacy systems.
Responsibilities
Design the overall architecture of our AI platform
Lead backend architecture and engineering best practices
Design scalable APIs and microservices
Build and integrate AI agents using modern LLM technologies
Develop enterprise RAG pipelines and knowledge management systems
Guide AI workflow orchestration and tool integration
Work closely with the founder to convert business ideas into production-ready software
Mentor developers and co-op students
Establish coding standards, CI/CD, testing, security, and deployment processes
Evaluate emerging AI technologies and recommend adoption where appropriate
Desired Qualifications
7+ years of professional software engineering experience
Experience leading technical architecture for SaaS platforms
Strong backend development experience (Python, Node.js, or similar)
Experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
Experience building AI applications using LLM APIs
Experience with RAG, vector databases, embeddings, and AI workflows
Strong understanding of API design and distributed systems
Experience mentoring engineering teams
Bonus Qualifications
Experience building AI agents
Experience with LangGraph, LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, or similar frameworks
Experience with enterprise knowledge management systems
Experience with workflow automation platforms
Experience in engineering, construction, AEC, BIM, or consulting software
Startup or founding engineer experience
Who Will Thrive Here
You enjoy building products from first principles.
You are excited by solving complex business problems with AI rather than simply integrating APIs.
You like working closely with decision-makers and influencing product direction.
You are comfortable in an environment where ideas evolve quickly and where your technical leadership has a direct impact on the company's future.
What Makes This Opportunity Different
Most companies are experimenting with AI.
We are redesigning an entire professional services business around AI.
You will help build software that directly transforms how engineering consulting firms manage knowledge, deliver projects, make technical decisions, and improve productivity.
If you are looking for an opportunity to build something meaningful with long-term impact, we would love to hear from you.
Please apply through Indeed or send your resume along with examples of AI-related projects you have built to [email protected].
