## About the role

Our team builds AI that understands homes, and our generative floor plan engine has moved from proof of concept to a core workflow in Higharc's product. You'll own the applied side of that work. The research team hands you a defined problem and a metric. You train and adapt the models, build the pipelines around them, and ship a component that meets the product's latency and cost budget. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Five or more years of professional software development, at least two of them training and shipping machine learning models to real users rather than in notebooks
- Has carried at least one model end to end, from data preparation through training, evaluation, serving and the integration that put it in front of users
- Fluent in Python, PyTorch preferred, TensorFlow or Keras acceptable with a commitment to move
- Has worked with geometric or structured data such as floor plans, CAD or BIM, graphs, or 2D and 3D geometry
- Has built or maintained an evaluation harness or benchmark and used it to gate changes. Has packaged a model behind an API (FastAPI or similar) and been accountable for its latency and cost
- Comfortable working remotely with a team on US Eastern hours
