You will leverage your deep physical engineering expertise and AI-driven tools to automate the design of large-scale power plants and data centers. By building a platform that reduces pre-construction engineering timelines from ten months to minutes, you'll help hyperscalers build critical infrastructure 10x faster and restore America's ability to build at scale.
Senior Multidisciplinary Engineer at a16z-backed AI construction startup
Building data centers and power plants currently takes years of manual engineering; this a16z-backed startup is doing it in minutes. We are looking for a Senior Multidisciplinary Engineer—ideally an alum of Tesla, SpaceX, or Anduril—to join a 10-person team already generating millions in revenue. If you have 7-15 years of experience shipping hard hardware and are ready to use AI to automate the future of American infrastructure, this is the most significant product-market fit you will find in SF. Relocation and visa support available for those ready to build in-person.

a16z-backed AI-native construction startup raising $12M to automate data center engineering
Responsibilities
What you will do
- Collaborate across mechanical, electrical, and systems disciplines to codify complex engineering constraints into an automated design platform.
- Use AI tools like Claude Code to build and ship software product that generates thousands of optimized engineering configurations in parallel.
- Partner directly with hyperscaler clients to deploy automated designs that cut project costs by half and drastically accelerate infrastructure deployment.
Candidate profile
Who this is a fit for
- 7-15 years of hands-on experience shipping complex physical products at top-tier companies like Tesla, SpaceX, Rivian, or Neuralink.
- A multidisciplinary mindset with deep intuition for how mechanical, electrical, and structural systems interact within a larger product ecosystem.
- A hardcore, builder-first mentality ready to work in-person in San Francisco to solve genuinely difficult problems without heavy corporate process.
What makes it remarkable
Why this role is remarkable
- Rare opportunity to join an a16z American Dynamism and Bessemer-backed startup at a de-risked inflection point with signed hyperscaler contracts and millions in revenue.
- Direct impact on the global AI arms race by solving the massive power and infrastructure bottleneck for data centers through high-fidelity engineering automation.
- Work in an elite, high-intensity environment alongside veteran builders from SpaceX, Tesla, and Anduril who are shipping real, physical-world products.
