About ConstructAI
We’re revolutionizing construction estimation through AI, helping contractors in the US bid on more projects 10x faster with higher accuracy. Backed by leading VCs, we’re preparing for our beta launch in the largest construction market, the US.
The Role
Join us as a Construction Technology Specialist in a unique position that combines hands-on construction estimation with cutting-edge automation development. You’ll spend time both delivering client estimations and building the automated modeling workflows that will power our self-service platform.
What makes this role special:
- 50% Operations: Perform quantity takeoffs and estimations of construction projects, working directly with construction drawings and specifications
- 50% Technology: Develop and improve Grasshopper scripts that automatically generate 3D models from database objects, integrated with Revit through Rhino.Inside.Revit
- Bridge Two Worlds: Translate real construction knowledge into automated workflows, directly impacting how AI understands building processes
- Direct CTO Reporting: Work closely with technical leadership to shape our automation roadmap
What You’ll Do
Estimation & Operations:
- Analyze architectural and structural drawings for reinforced concrete projects
- Perform quantity takeoffs for foundations, columns, beams, slabs, and structural elements
- Validate AI-generated construction element objects and provide feedback for accuracy improvements
- Collaborate with customers to clarify project specifications and requirements
- Document estimation methodologies and best practices
Automation & Development:
- Work with existing Grasshopper scripts that read construction objects from our database
- Develop automated workflows that extract object properties and generate accurate 3D models
- Integrate modeling scripts with Revit through Rhino.Inside.Revit for visualization and validation
- Improve and extend automated modeling capabilities based on real project learnings
- Collaborate with our AI team to enhance model accuracy and processing speed
What We’re Looking For
Essential Experience:
- 3-5 years in the construction industry, specifically with:
- Reinforced concrete structures (residential, commercial, or infrastructure)
- Structural contractors, general contractors, or estimation firms
- Understanding of concrete construction processes, formwork, and rebar placement
- Revit experience with structural models (intermediate level - you don’t need to be a BIM expert)
- Intermediate proficiency with Rhino and Grasshopper, including:
- Understanding of computational logic and parametric design principles
- Experience creating and modifying Grasshopper definitions
- Python programming knowledge
- Strong analytical skills and attention to detail for quantity takeoffs
- Bilingual proficiency in Spanish and English (LATAM operations/US clients)
- Experience working on US construction projects
- Power user proficiency with generative AI tools - essential for success in our AI-native startup environment
Technical Skills:
- Ability to read and interpret structural drawings and specifications
- Understanding of construction materials, methods, and industry standards
- Familiarity with 3D modeling concepts and parametric design principles
- Experience with database concepts and data manipulation
Soft Skills:
- Curiosity about technology and how automation can improve construction processes
- Problem-solving mindset - you see inefficiencies and think about how to automate them
- Communication skills to work with both technical developers and construction professionals
- Growth mindset - this role will evolve rapidly as we scale
Why Join ConstructAI
Impact & Growth:
- Shape the future of construction estimation through AI and automation
- Work at the intersection of traditional construction knowledge and cutting-edge technology
- Grow with a fast-scaling startup backed by top-tier investors
- Develop unique expertise in construction technology that’s highly valuable in the market
Learning Opportunities:
