Job Title

Founding Deployed Engineer

Salary

$180K – $250K + Equity

Company Description

$8.5M Seed-stage AI startup backed by OpenAI and Blackstone C-suite

Job Description

You will take proprietary agentic AI capabilities into the field, deploying solutions for trillion-dollar asset managers and global developers. As a founding engineer, you own the gap between technical prototypes and production value, building Python-based agents and automation pipelines that accelerate institutional real estate projects from concept to completion.

Location

New York City, USA

Why this role is remarkable

• Rare opportunity to join a high-velocity founding team backed by top-tier venture capital and industry giants like the C-suite from Blackstone and OpenAI.
• Direct impact on the physical world by automating complex workflows for the world’s largest digital infrastructure, energy, and industrial projects.
• Accelerated founder’s track where you gain radical autonomy and 0.3%–0.8% equity at a company redefining a multi-trillion-dollar asset class.

What You Will Do

• Work directly with institutional real estate stakeholders to translate ambiguous requirements into scoped, production-grade AI agent solutions.
• Design and ship end-to-end agentic workflows using Python, LangGraph, and browser/voice agents to automate complex acquisitions and development cycles.
• Lead live customer pilots and iterate rapidly based on field feedback to convert deployment learnings into reusable product patterns and playbooks.

The ideal candidate

• 2-6 years of professional experience with a proven track record of shipping production AI/ML systems rather than just experimental prototypes.
• High-level technical proficiency in Python and modern AI frameworks, combined with the soft skills to communicate tradeoffs to non-technical C-suite executives.
• A "builder" mindset characterized by extreme ownership, a bias toward velocity, and the ability to thrive in an intense, on-site startup environment.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.

Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.

We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
