Job Description

STRUCTION IS DIFFERENT

Reading through all these job descriptions suck. They all say the same stuff in tech lingo to signal their access to the most advanced models at the coolest office with the best incentive package. You probably applied to a few “mature” series A+ companies freshly funded by A16z or Sequoia, or maybe Big Tech as a senior SWE. We all know how those jobs turn out. You get a sit/stand desk and play baby sitter for the mercenary CTO or PM on Manager Mode for +10 hours per day (). You try to play the politics game to raise more coin until you realize the futility. You hit your 1 year cliff and start looking for something more…. . The SV echo-chamber ensures your options are all the same, all your geography the same.

(You saw it coming) We’re different. Don’t write off early stage companies because they contain outsized risk for the same job - life is only as good as the unique experiences you chase. Novelty is risky, but so is a fun life. And you’re wrong that all early companies have outsized risk for the same job - this role is not your typical Software Engineer. At Struction, you will be THE master code-conjurer architecting “Minecraft for contractors” - a new modality for the builders of the real world: the final construction OS. Heard of 4D chess? You get to build the board. Oh, and you get to see your work literally transform the world - the REAL world.

There is a chance we fail, but you’ll still get to build something way cooler than your friends working on agentic wordcels . When we succeed, your work will be renown for breaking the agility barrier of reality into a level only known previously by the digital realm. People will play the game you build so they can build reality.

BUILD SOMETHING IRL USING YOUR DIGITAL WIZARDRY

Struction’s mission is to replace today’s compute modality on the build-side of construction: (architectural / construction drawings). Architects and engineers already work in digital (though semantically poor) environments . Regardless, their output - 2D drawings and narratives - still serve as the technical language on the jobsite.

The worst part about using 2D drawings (PDF’s) is the time it takes to familiarize and integrate with a new project. That’s why Struction’s first move is to automate the onboarding process for every contractor and supplier and replace it with something dimensionally richer: 4D simulation. No one is doing this because (1) they think BIM has reached saturation ( it hasn’t ), (2) they think contractors don’t buy software ( they do ), or (3) they think it’s too hard ( until us ).

When we succeed, you will have built THE compute platform in construction, replacing the job of drawings on jobsites today. Struction will lead the renaissance of iterating in reality. You get to write code that changes the REAL world - not the Nᵗʰ copilot for faster dev cycles or the AI girlfriend.

We’re based out of Colorado - one of the last places where reality, and productivity, still matter (+1 for quality of life ). We’re close to our customers and intent on staying close as a company. We believe in working IRL but are consistently flexible. Getting your s*** done is more important than hours in the office, but time with your teammates is priceless. We love our work.

Last summer we raised a pre-seed of over $800k from Eniac Ventures , Soma Capital , and DayDream Ventures . We’ve launched, we have customers / users, and we’re growing very quickly. We work out of our office in RiNo, Denver - it’s a sick office. We have a gong and a garage door.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Struction’s founding software engineer will collaborate with our CTO and Founding Computer Vision Engineer to build the final boss of preconstruction:

  1. Build dynamic, in-browser 3D experiences with client-side and/or server-side rendering.
  2. Build responsive, performant, and reusable UI with animation libraries without assistance from designers; these components shall be scalable to ensure visual consistency across the platform.
  3. Architect scalable backends and data models from scratch that accommodate varying requirements from different customers while ensuring code maintainability and reuse.
  4. Ideate, implement, and optimize new algorithms including, but not limited to, image processing, quote / price generation, construction design, 2D graphics, and 3D model rendering.
  5. Programmatically modify and generate 3D assets in Blender via Python API and / or manually.
  6. Profile, investigate, and mitigate performance bottlenecks across data fetching and graphics rendering, including in low-resource / low-compute environments.
  7. Rapidly prototype (minimally viable) proofs of concepts and feature suites; follow-through on validated features by improving code maintainability, reliability, and performance.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

  1. Exceptionalism in front-end and back-end technologies, such as React, Typescript, Python, C++, Node.js, Next.js, and PostgreSQL.
  2. Industry experience with client-side 3D rendering (WebAssembly, Three.js, WebGL, etc.) and / or server-side 3D rendering (cloud-gaming, GeForce Now, WebRTC, FFmpeg, etc.).
  3. Industry experience with cloud infrastructure such as AWS, GCP, Azure, and/or Vercel.
  4. Proven track-record for architecting and shipping high-quality, production code including monitoring, telemetry, performance, reliability, triage, and debugability.
  5. Previously developed beautiful, high-performance, and animation-heavy web UI / UX from scratch.
  6. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, or you can build >5x faster and better than any recent CS graduate.
  7. You prefer to move fast than to perfect; but you still respect perfection.
  8. You should really enjoy what you do; everyone at Struction is excited to go to work.
  9. High tolerance for risk; you shouldn’t scare easy.
  10. Strong taste for good design.
  11. Sense of humor.
  12. Gritty & Scrappy.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  1. Startup experience.
  2. MLOps experience deploying, monitoring, and A/B testing models using technologies such as mlFlow, Airflow, and Docker.
  3. Experience with KPI-definition and metric-logging; strong analytics skills using relational SQL.

If you want to do something different - something uniquely valuable - with your life, you should apply. “ Don’t outsource your future to a big institution ” … let’s build it instead. As employee #2, you will be compensated according to your qualifications and the natural risk of the role (cash + equity). We offer health insurance and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Send your resume and tell us why you’re a good fit: cracked@struction.co .
