Join Trunk Tools as a Forward Deployed Engineer, where you'll work directly with general contractor customers to implement and optimize our Cortex platform on real construction projects. This early-career role offers the opportunity to write code, engage with builders on job sites, and see the impact of your work in a matter of weeks. You'll also have the chance to contribute to product development by providing feedback from the field.

Prior customer-facing, deployment, or forward-deployed work

Responsibilities

  • Deploy Cortex and the agents into live projects, connect a customer's document set, integrate with existing systems, and configure the agents.
  • Create new custom agents for use on live projects, leveraging the Trunk Tools platform to address specific customer use cases.
  • Own the data-to-outcome loop for your accounts, ensuring measurable results on the customer's own drawings, specs, and submittals.
  • Low ego and a builder's respect for the people doing the work

Requirements

  • 0 to 3 years of software engineering experience with strong computer-science fundamentals. Recent graduates with substantial project or internship experience are encouraged to apply
  • A bias to action. You ship, you watch what breaks, you fix it, and you pick up a new domain quickly
  • Working proficiency in Python and/or TypeScript, and comfort with APIs, data, and building integrations between systems
  • Willingness to travel to jobsites and customer offices, and real comfort working in the field, hard hat included
  • Clear, direct communication and genuine comfort in front of customers. We hire engineer-diplomats: people who can write code in the morning and earn a superintendent's trust in the afternoon
  • Familiarity with data, machine learning, or retrieval systems
  • Exposure to construction, architecture, or engineering, or genuine curiosity about how buildings get built
  • Hands-on experience with Procore or Autodesk Construction Cloud
