Founding Full-Stack Engineer

Job description

The problem The construction industry loses $1.6 trillion a year to inefficiency, and most of it is avoidable. The knowledge that would prevent it already exists. It's just trapped in PDFs, meeting protocols, and email threads nobody can search. Every new project relearns what the last one already knew. We're building the opposite of that: software for the people who run large, complex construction projects. It reads the documents, tracks the decisions, and catches the mistakes early. The model isn't the moat. The project memory is, and it compounds: every project makes the system better, and a competitor starting today is already years of projects behind. Our software runs today on a live autobahn construction program and an S-Bahn transit program: multi-year timelines, hundreds of thousands of pages of specs, protocols, and site communications, and real consequences when we get an answer wrong. We're pre-seed, led by Realyze Ventures, whose LPs include Zech and other large European construction groups. Co-investors: D11Z, the family office behind Aleph Alpha, and the CDTM Venture Fund, backed by 300+ CDTM alumni including the founders of Personio and Alasco and DeepMind's Technical Director. 25+ live customers. Tasks What you'd work on Two hard problems, both in production. AI-native project management, not a chatbot on PDFs. You build the product project managers live in every day: the dashboards, task views, and alerts. The AI belongs in the background, not in a sidebar you talk to, so you're building surfaces where automation runs on cronjobs, recommendations surface for the PM to approve, and some tasks run end to end with the user only reviewing after. The data layer under a five-year project. Construction data is deeply interconnected: documents, protocols, decisions, tasks, and stakeholders all cross-reference each other across timelines that run for years. You design the schema, write the queries, and build the APIs that hold that graph and still serve the product fast enough to feel instant, at hundreds of thousands of pages and 50 stakeholders per project. Stack. TypeScript, Next.js, Vercel, Supabase (Postgres + pgvector), LangChain, Vercel AI SDK, LangFuse, shadcn/ui. Every engineer gets €500/month for AI tooling: Claude Code, Cursor background agents, and whatever frontier model you want to test. No legacy. Greenfield. How we work We ship at 8…
