About Us

Established in 2023, Genia is dedicated to empowering the North American real estate market with generative AI. Our product, Structural CoPilot, automates the generation of structural engineering design drawings for the construction sector, enhancing efficiency and quality for engineering design firms and real estate developers.

The founding team has a deep background in the architecture and AI industries, with experience from leading internet and architectural engineering companies such as Amazon, Tencent, and ARUP. Team members hold degrees from renowned universities, including Yale, UPenn, Columbia, CMU, Duke, UCLA, and UBC. They have a proven track record of building multiple AI products from the ground up.

In early 2024, Genia successfully closed a multi-million dollar financing round with investors including a top-tier Silicon Valley venture capital firm and Europe's largest construction technology fund. We have also established strategic partnerships with several North American architectural engineering firms. The company is in a phase of rapid expansion and offers a competitive compensation package, including equity incentives for outstanding talent. We sincerely invite talented individuals from all backgrounds to join us!
