Applied AI Engineer

Eagle•New York, NY

1d•$150,000 - $300,000•Onsite

About The Position

Eagle is on a mission to radically transform the way we design and construct our built environment. Backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners, Eagle acquires and transforms civil, structural, and MEP engineering firms with applied AI. We’re an AI laboratory dedicated to providing engineers with the tools they need to solve the world’s hardest infrastructure, energy, and climate problems. By arming designers with frontier technology, our ambition is to build the most valuable, talent-dense engineering firm in the United States. As an Applied AI Engineer, you'll work directly with the founders and staff at engineering firms to ship the initial iterations of our operating system that will power this transformation. You'll own outcomes at the edge and get a front-row seat to building a company from zero—engaging with architecture decisions, firm acquisitions, and product strategy—on a problem domain that's barely been touched by AI.

Requirements

Has a deep curiosity for how things work (e.g., an organization, a workflow, a market)
Isn’t afraid to expose their ignorance and is constantly asking why
Has the poise and communication skills to earn trust with people who've never worked with a tech company before
Can sit with noisy, conflicting feedback from users and distill it into a clear opinion about what to build
Is willing to get on a plane with us
Is not above any task: Up to write the web scraper, help users leverage off-the-shelf tools, or build the plugin for Windows native AEC software

Nice To Haves

Has experience or interest in LLMs, Agent Frameworks, RAG, browser automation, or doc parsing

Responsibilities

Embed with staff at engineering firms alongside the founders; then come back and build against what you saw
Own problems end-to-end from problem discovery to deployment to debugging in prod
Collaborate directly with the CTO on engineering culture, technical direction, and what we’ll build next
