The Opportunity
We're building the self-driving project for real estate development.
Northspyre is the operating system for real estate development — used by the developers behind billions of dollars of projects across the country. This summer, we're launching a skunkworks initiative to build the next frontier: autonomous AI agents that can predict, decide, and act across the full lifecycle of a building project. Think of what the self-driving car project was to transportation. That's the ambition here — applied to how buildings get built.
You will work directly with the CEO, CTO, and Principal Engineer. Not a team lead. Not a manager's manager. The three people who decide where the company goes. Your code, your ideas, and your decisions will help shape what Northspyre looks like for the next decade.
What You'll Build
- AI agents that autonomously monitor, flag, and resolve issues across complex real estate projects — from permitting to procurement to closeout
- Agentic workflows that replace hours of human coordination with real-time, context-aware decision loops
- LLM-powered interfaces that translate messy project data into structured intelligence and actionable insights
- Infrastructure for multi-agent collaboration — agents that hand off tasks, escalate to humans, and learn from outcomes
- Prototype systems capable of becoming core product features shipped to paying customers
Who We're Looking For
There is no rubric. We are looking for people, not profiles. That said, the people who will thrive here tend to be:
- Curious and self-directed — you pursue problems without waiting to be pointed at them
- Comfortable with ambiguity and able to make good decisions without a complete picture
- Systems thinkers — you care about how the pieces fit together, not just your slice
- Intellectually restless — you go deeper on things that interest you without someone telling you to
Qualifications
- Pursuing a BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.
- Strong CS fundamentals — you can reason about systems, not just write code
- Hands-on experience with LLMs, AI agents, or AI/ML pipelines (personal projects count heavily)
- Comfortable working in Python and at least one modern AI/ML framework
- A portfolio or GitHub that shows you've built something real — we want to see working projects, not coursework alone
