Founding AI Platform Technical Lead

$65k - $85k per year

EC Master Inc.

Help Build the Future of Engineering Consulting. We are building an AI-native Operating System for Engineering Consulting Firms.

Our platform combines:

  • AI Agents
  • Large Language Models
  • Enterprise Knowledge Management
  • Workflow Automation
  • Project Management
  • Proposal Intelligence
  • Engineering Decision Support
  • Resource Planning
  • RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
  • Business Intelligence

Unlike most AI startups, we are not building software in search of a problem.

Our platform is being developed inside a successful engineering consulting company with over ten years of operational data, thousands of engineering proposals, project records, technical reports, SOPs, and real-world engineering workflows. Every feature is validated through daily production use.

This is an opportunity to help define how engineering consulting firms will operate in the AI era.

About the Role

We are seeking a Founding AI Platform Technical Lead to work directly with the founder in designing and building a next-generation enterprise AI platform.

This is a highly technical, hands‑on leadership role.

You will help transform product vision into scalable software architecture while leading the implementation of AI-powered capabilities across our platform.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys building new products rather than maintaining legacy systems.

Responsibilities

  • Design the overall architecture of our AI platform
  • Lead backend architecture and engineering best practices
  • Design scalable APIs and microservices
  • Build and integrate AI agents using modern LLM technologies
  • Develop enterprise RAG pipelines and knowledge management systems
  • Guide AI workflow orchestration and tool integration
  • Work closely with the founder to convert business ideas into production‑ready software
  • Mentor developers and co‑op students
  • Establish coding standards, CI/CD, testing, security, and deployment processes
  • Evaluate emerging AI technologies and recommend adoption where appropriate

Desired Qualifications

  • 7+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Experience leading technical architecture for SaaS platforms
  • Strong backend development experience (Python, Node.js, or similar)
  • Experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
  • Experience building AI applications using LLM APIs
  • Experience with RAG, vector databases, embeddings, and AI workflows
  • Strong understanding of API design and distributed systems
  • Experience mentoring engineering teams

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience building AI agents
  • Experience with LangGraph, LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, or similar frameworks
  • Experience with enterprise knowledge management systems
  • Experience with workflow automation platforms
  • Experience in engineering, construction, AEC, BIM, or consulting software
  • Startup or founding engineer experience

Who Will Thrive Here

  • You enjoy building products from first principles.
  • You are excited by solving complex business problems with AI rather than simply integrating APIs.
  • You like working closely with decision-makers and influencing product direction.
  • You are comfortable in an environment where ideas evolve quickly and where your technical leadership has a direct impact on the company's future.

What Makes This Opportunity Different

Most companies are experimenting with AI.

We are redesigning an entire professional services business around AI.

You will help build software that directly transforms how engineering consulting firms manage knowledge, deliver projects, make technical decisions, and improve productivity.

If you are looking for an opportunity to build something meaningful with long-term impact, we would love to hear from you.

Pay: $65,000.00-$85,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
