AI / Backend Engineer - Part-time - Worldwide

About the project

We are looking for an experienced Software Engineer to help build an AI-driven system for automated electrical layout generation on top of AutoCAD and Revit plans. This is a technically challenging role combining CAD/BIM processing, deterministic rule engines, and AI/NLP.

The right candidate has strong system design skills, is comfortable working with complex domain rules, and takes ownership of building production-grade software with long-term product potential

Responsibilities

• Design and implement a deterministic rule engine
• Build AI/NLP pipelines to parse unstructured documents (PDF, Word)
• Map textual instructions to structured system actions
• Detect missing or conflicting inputs
• Expose backend services and APIs for the CAD plugin
• Support generation of structured outputs (BoQ data)

Requirements

• Strong backend engineering experience (Python preferred)
• Hands-on experience with AI / NLP / LLMs
• Experience parsing unstructured text and documents
• Ability to design logic-heavy, rule-based systems
• Clear communicator able to explain tradeoffs

Nice to Have

• Experience combining AI with deterministic systems
• Computer vision or document understanding experience
• Product or startup experience
