About the Role

Join a product engineering team building AI-powered software for certification, inspection, and compliance workflows. You will work directly with customers to understand how their operations function and turn real-world needs into reliable production systems.

What You'll Do

  • Work alongside customer operations teams to understand certification, inspection, and compliance processes.

  • Lead customer conversations, document requirements, and build end-to-end solutions across frontend, backend, data, and model layers.

  • Own product areas from discovery through launch, collaborating closely with company leadership.

  • Ship software early, observe how users work with it, and improve it based on feedback.

  • Use judgment to distinguish broadly useful product needs from one-off requests.

  • Analyze customer documents, conversations, and outputs to develop AI-powered workflows for scheduling, technical review, conformity assessment, field inspection, and document intelligence.

What We're Looking For

  • Three to six years of software or product engineering experience, with systems shipped to production users.

  • Full-stack development experience, including Python, TypeScript, React, Node.js, SQL, and data modeling.

  • Experience with AI/ML, LLMs, document intelligence, or cloud infrastructure.

  • Experience building products or systems from the ground up, ideally in an early-stage startup or founding engineering environment.

  • Comfort working directly with customers and translating operational workflows into software.

  • Strong computer science fundamentals and the ability to work on-site with customers and the team.
