• Develop prototypes to prove key design concepts and quantify technical constraints for advanced AI pipelines and construction document understanding.
• Improve reliability and optimize performance of our foundational processing system.
• Routinely test and debug web applications and backend services, both manually and through automation, to maintain high quality and performance.
• Integrate cutting-edge AI to deliver novel automation use cases to customers and collaborate with Machine Learning Engineers to effectively produce a system that makes human-level decisions in construction projects.

Basic Qualifications
