Senior Civil Engineer role focused on automating construction and solving infrastructure challenges.

We are automating construction end to end to usher in a new era of abundance and beauty in the physical world in the coming decades. Over the past fifty years, the West’s ability to design and build large scale infrastructure has atrophied, and the entire industry has become less productive. With decaying infrastructure, power shortages, and an aging workforce, the only way through is to hyper-scale development with technology at a rate never before seen.
Our team believes that this is the most important work of our lives, and there’s no more significant place to spend our time than on solving these problems. We believe in the sacrifices that we must make to achieve our mission and build a world of abundance. We believe the future can be amazing, but only if we work gut-wrenchingly hard to make it so. Our work is bigger than all of us, and our obsession with manifesting is what drives us. Roughly 50% of our team are former founders, and we strive for technical excellence, but quell our egos to ensure that the best ideas always win.
We acknowledge the long and arduous path ahead to achieve our ambitions; that many of the most difficult challenges have yet to even be revealed to us; that the chance of failure is not only possible, but likely. Most of all, we believe that there is no other option: we will either revolutionize how humanity builds or die trying.

We're hiring a Senior Civil Engineer to bring deep, practicing site-civil expertise into our product. You'll pair years of hands-on design experience (grading and earthwork, hydrology, permitting, geotechnical, etc) with product development, turning how an excellent civil engineer thinks, checks, and makes judgment calls into capabilities within our automated design engine product, where we leverage AI to automate every step of the engineering design process to produce end construction design deliverables for large scale capital projects such as utility scale power and data centers. You'll set the bar for what "correct" means on every civil deliverable we ship.
This role is in-person in San Francisco, CA.

Owned significant civil engineering scopes within the design of large scale projects such as utility scale power stations, data centers, launch vehicle facilities, mass-scale manufacturing operations, mining operations, or similar.
T-shaped technical excellence: broad understanding of how the civil scope connects to adjacent disciplines, and the implications of trade-offs across them, while also having deep expertise in 1-2 areas
Evidence of strong first principles thinking: someone who has challenged "this is how we've always done it" syndrome
Excitement to work in a fast-paced, high-performance environment, and embrace extreme ownership where we rethink many of the traditional "best-practices" of an industry that has been mostly frozen for 70+ years
The ability to prioritize impact by ruthlessly finding the bottlenecks and solving the most important problems
Hands-on engineers who can speak to the excruciating minutia and details of their work, and are excited to execute instead of manage/organize others' work
Mission alignment and desire to build a future of abundance
Experience: Senior. Significant hands-on civil design experience; PE strongly preferred.

Experience with utility scale natural gas power generation plant and/or solar design
Experience building your own calculation, analysis, or design-automation tools. A large part of this role is turning your engineering knowledge into scalable software; even if you've barely written software before, you'll leverage recent advancements in AI coding agents to assist you in building these tools
Experience with AI coding agent tools (Codex, Claude Code, etc) for work or personal uses
