Job description

\u003Cb\u003EFounding Engineering Lead
\u003C/b\u003EBase salary: $200K to $300K plus equity
Location: New York, 4 days in person | Full time

You have built from zero before. Now build technology that changes how cities care for the roads people use every day. In Port Lavaca, Texas, public works leaders have used the platform in capital improvement budgeting; Alexandria, Kentucky, reports saving three weeks of road survey and data entry. This is a chance to work directly with the founder and turn that early impact into a lasting product.

We are hiring for a company building the operating layer for the infrastructure cities maintain. Roads are the starting point: imagery, vehicle data, GIS records, engineering documents, and local knowledge become a living map of assets and their condition. Public works teams can use that evidence to plan capital, explain priorities, and manage work. The longer ambition reaches sidewalks, drainage, signs, bridges, and other public assets.

The product has customers, revenue, and funding, while the engineering choices that define the next phase are still open. You would join a world-class engineering team that includes a founding software engineer formerly at Brex and a machine learning engineer formerly at X, Google's moonshot factory.

\u003Cb\u003EWhat you'll own\u003C/b\u003E

You will take customer problems from first conversation to shipped software. The scope reaches product decisions, architecture, interface, data model, releases, and the standards a growing engineering team will inherit.

• Choose the highest-value customer problem and test the fastest credible solution.


• Build across React, TypeScript, Mapbox, Express, and the geospatial data layer.


• Set quality thresholds and human-review paths for imperfect physical-world inputs.


• Stay close to deployment, own production outcomes, and help shape the future team.
  

\u003Cb\u003EProblems you'll solve\u003C/b\u003E

A city cannot base a maintenance plan on a black-box score. You will connect source imagery and records to clear recommendations, make uncertainty visible, and help officials explain why one road or asset needs attention before another.
