Generative AI Engineer / Scientist (US)

Los Angeles, CA, USA
Responsibilities

We are looking for a Generative AI Engineer / Scientist to help build next-generation AI systems that combine large language models (LLMs), agentic AI, graph neural networks (GNNs), and image generation algorithms. This role is an opportunity to work on real-world applications at the intersection of architecture, engineering, and AI, while shaping the future of generative design.

  • Design, fine-tune, and optimize large language models (LLMs) for domain-specific applications in architecture and engineering.
  • Develop agentic AI systems for reasoning, tool use, and workflow automation in structural design tasks.
  • Apply graph neural networks (GNNs) to structured engineering data, knowledge graphs, and design optimization problems.
  • Prototype multimodal systems combining text, drawings, and structured design data.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate generative AI into production-ready AEC workflows.
  • Stay on top of the latest AI research and propose innovative solutions to push the boundaries of generative design.
Qualifications

EDUCATION & BACKGROUND

  • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, or a related field.
  • Strong academic/industrial foundation in deep learning and generative AI models, geometric learning and computational geometry.

CORE EXPERTISE

  • Hands-on experience with LLMs: fine-tuning, instruction tuning, domain adaptation, or RLHF.
  • Experience developing agentic systems (e.g., tool-augmented LLMs, reasoning frameworks).
  • Strong knowledge of graph neural networks (GNNs) using PyTorch Geometric, DGL, or similar.
  • Skilled in Python and deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX).
  • Able to navigate ambiguity and adapt effectively to evolving requirements in fast-paced environments.

PREFERRED QUALITIES

  • Track record of publications in top AI/ML/NLP/CV conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, ACL, KDD).
  • Contributions to open-source AI projects or a demonstrable portfolio of generative AI applications.
  • Experience working with multimodal or AEC-related datasets is a strong plus.
  • Excited by working in a fast-growing startup environment and contributing to both research and product impact.
