Equity

Job summary

Boon Technologies, Inc. is building the first foundation model for construction drawings that reads, understands, and reasons about architectural, mechanical, electrical, and structural plans.

You will own end-to-end experiments from architecture design through pretraining and shipping production models, with autonomy over direction and ideas, aligning with the company's research focus.

Qualifications

• 3–7+ years of computer vision research experience.
• Hands-on with multi-modal/vision transformers — segmentation, detection, or joint text+vision tasks.
• Experience with modern foundation vision models (e.g., SAM, DINO, CLIP, etc.).
• Ability to move ideas from research to production systems with minimal hand-holding.
• Strong rigor in experiments: baselines, ablations, honest evaluation on real data.

Responsibilities

• Design and evaluate novel multi-stage vision architectures for construction drawing understanding.
• Drive architecture decisions: backbones, decoders, fusion strategies, loss functions.
• Run rigorous experiments with clean baselines, ablations, and held-out evaluation on real construction drawings.
• Own supervised training and self-supervised pretraining strategies.
• Collaborate with ML engineers on deployment, quantization, and serving.
