Role Overview

This is the founding Head of Engineering for a US-founded stealth startup building an AI productivity platform for architecture and engineering teams on Building Information Modeling (BIM). The product indexes a firm's past projects, builds a searchable detail library, and automatically generates drawings, annotations, and construction details to the firm's own drafting standards — cutting the manual time spent in construction documentation.

You will build the India engineering organisation from Chennai or Bangalore, work with a US founding team, and stay hands-on: this is a build-and-lead role, not a process Head of Engineering. Experience required: 4–10 years. Compensation: ₹60–80 LPA plus meaningful ESOP.

What You'll Work On

• AI-native BIM agentic pipelines that turn an empty BIM callout into a completed construction detail — matching wall layers, placing components, annotating — with the architect still reviewing and approving
• The unsolved drafting problem the company is betting on:



auto-adapting a firm's existing Revit details to live project conditions (wall type, materials, insulation, dimensions) inside Autodesk Revit, instead of redrawing details that already exist in the firm library
• Intelligent Detail Library — search and reuse across a firm's Revit archive — plus the Detailing Assistant, shipped end to end
• Backend and agentic-AI systems with US AEC customer data kept private, permissioned, and never used to train external models
• Hiring and leading a 3–4 person engineering team in Chennai / Bangalore while working with a US founding team (operator + licensed architect) and existing US customers

Who Is Right for This Role

• 4–10 years of experience, including time leading a small engineering team (3–4 engineers) end to end
• Has taken a product from zero to live production used by real customers — not only prototypes, demos, or research — and can point to what they personally built
• Has built backend / AI systems with agentic
