About the role
We're hiring a Senior Civil Engineer to bring deep, practicing site-civil expertise into our product. You'll pair years of hands-on design experience (grading and earthwork, hydrology, permitting, geotechnical, etc) with product development, turning how an excellent civil engineer thinks, checks, and makes judgment calls into capabilities within our automated design engine product, where we leverage AI to automate every step of the engineering design process to produce end construction design deliverables for...
What they're looking for
- Owned significant civil engineering scopes within the design of large scale projects such as utility scale power stations, data centers, launch vehicle facilities, mass-scale manufacturing operations, mining operations, or similar
- T-shaped technical excellence: broad understanding of how the civil scope connects to adjacent disciplines, and the implications of trade-offs across them, while also having deep expertise in 1-2 areas
- Evidence of strong first principles thinking: someone who has challenged "this is how we've always done it" syndrome
- Excitement to work in a fast-paced, high-performance environment, and embrace extreme ownership where we rethink many of the traditional "best-practices" of an industry that has been mostly frozen for 70+ years
- The ability to prioritize impact by ruthlessly finding the bottlenecks and solving the most important problems
- Hands-on engineers who can speak to the excruciating minutia and details of their work, and are excited to execute instead of manage/organize others' work
More about this role
We are automating construction end to end to usher in a new era of abundance and beauty in the physical world in the coming decades. Over the past fifty years, the West’s ability to design and build large scale infrastructure has atrophied, and the entire industry has become less productive. With decaying infrastructure, power shortages, and an aging workforce, the only way through is to hyper-scale development with technology at a rate never before seen.
Our team believes that this is the most important work of our lives, and there’s no more significant place to spend our time than on solving these problems. We believe in the sacrifices that we must make to achieve our mission and build a world of abundance. We believe the future can be amazing, but only if we work gut-wrenchingly hard to make it so. Our work is bigger than all of us, and our obsession with manifesting is what drives us. Roughly 50% of our team are former founders, and we strive for technical excellence, but quell our egos to ensure that the best ideas always win.
We acknowledge the long and arduous path ahead to achieve our ambitions; that many of the most difficult challenges have yet to even be revealed to us;...
