About the role
As a Architectural Design Engineer (Founding Team) at Structured, you sit at the intersection of architectural practice and frontier AI.
This is a product-first, customer-facing role. You aren't just applying architectural judgment (by that we mean building architects!), you are productizing it and deploying it directly into the world's leading architecture firms. If you trained as an architect, have lived the practice, and you're excited by AI and what it can do for how buildings get designed and reviewed, this is the seat.
Working directly with our CTO and CPO, you will translate the logic of floor plans, building envelopes, and regulatory codes (both public regulations like IBC, local amendments, and accessibility, and client-custom standards) into autonomous AI agents. You'll ship those agents to clients yourself, own the relationship through the entire customer-success pipeline, and feed everything you learn back into the product. You write the logic, you deploy the feature, you sit across from the architect. We're early-stage and signing contracts, so your work goes live in front of real firms, fast.
Your core responsibilities
- Encode Expertise: Translate architectural objects, plan logic, and code requirements (public regulations plus firm-specific standards) into structured patterns and agent logic our AI can execute.
- Build & Ship: Prototype and deploy QA/QC checks and agent workflows end-to-end in our codebase (we work in Cursor and Claude Code, git, daily ships). You're hands-on-keyboard. You build the check, you push it to production.
- Stand Up Client Environments: Deploy dedicated environments and tailored check suites into enterprise architecture practices, then watch them run against real drawing sets.
- Generalize: Take what you build for one firm and turn the best of it into public, platform-wide checks every customer benefits from.
