While design software optimizes use and aesthetics and construction software optimizes execution and control, MeltPlan is building the missing layer - software that optimizes decisions and tradeoffs upstream, before scope is locked, procurement begins, and change orders become inevitable. MeltPlan’s long-term goal is to help teams make construction “boring” by making planning more intense: surfacing constraints and tradeoffs early, aligning stakeholders before plans are frozen, and reducing the need for late-stage redlines, rework, and change orders. MeltPlan is founded by operators who have built at scale. Kanav previously co-founded Innovaccer, a $3Bn health-tech company focused on making US healthcare more affordable and accessible. He’s now applying that systems-level thinking to construction.He’s joined by Tanmaya Kala, former Project Executive at DPR Construction, who led large commercial, healthcare, and life sciences projects. We combine deep tech scale with real construction execution. What This Role Really Is Code writing is a commodity. We’re not hiring someone to close tickets. We’re hiring someone who: - Is biased toward building - Thinks in systems - Designs for scale and resilience - Reviews architecture, not just PRs - Can move fast without creating long-term mess You’ll ship products daily. You’ll also help shape the system so it doesn’t collapse under growth. ## What You’ll Do - Build end-to-end features (DB → API → UI) - Design scalable data models and backend architecture - Ship clean, production-grade frontend experiences - Review and improve system design decisions - Work directly with founders on product direction - Help define engineering standards as we scale ## What We’re Looking For - Strong backend fundamentals (APIs, databases, performance, system design) - Strong frontend skills (React/Next.js or similar modern frameworks) with minimum 5 years of works exp - Experience building and shipping real products - Ability to plan before building and refactor when needed - High ownership mindset Bonus if you’ve worked in early-stage startups or B2B SaaS. ## Why MeltPlan - Massive industry, real-world impact - High ownership from day one - Small team, zero bureaucracy - Competitive comp + meaningful equity How to Apply Send us: - Your GitHub - Links to products you’ve shipped - A short note on something you built that you’re proud of We value builders. Show us what you’ve made. ## About Meltplan ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: MeltPlan is the AI-native planning engine for construction, automating building code compliance, quantity takeoffs, and bid leveling during preconstruction. - **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage) - **Headquarters**: Berkeley, California, United States - **Founded**: 2025 - **Founders**: Kanav Hasija (Co-Founder & CEO) and Tanmaya Kala (Co-Founder & COO); founding team also includes Prithivi Da (CTO), Frazin Salim (Design), and Lovekush Gangwar (Marketing/Tech) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Construction technology / Preconstruction software - **Target customers**: Architects, engineers, general contractors, specialty contractors, and building inspectors (B2B, SMB to enterprise) - **Mission / Purpose**: “Building the intelligence layer for construction” – moving critical preconstruction decisions upstream where changes are still cheap. ## Products & Services - **Melt Code** – AI-powered building code research tool that delivers project-specific compliance requirements with step-by-step reasoning and direct code citations. (SaaS) - **Melt Takeoff** – AI-assisted quantity takeoff service combining vision AI with onshore estimator verification for accurate, fast takeoffs including scope not shown. (Service + SaaS) - **Melt Bid** – AI bid leveling tool for general contractors to level subcontractor bids in minutes, catch missing scope, and make confident award decisions. (SaaS) ## Market Standing - **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed. - **Key Metric**: Total funding of **$17.4M** (per LinkedIn) or **$14M** (per Tracxn – conflicting reports) in a single Seed round. - **Notable Investors / Partners**: Led by **Bessemer Venture Partners**; other investors include WND Ventures and additional angels. - **Growth Signals**: - 21 employees (LinkedIn) / 30 employees as of May 31, 2026 (Tracxn – conflicting) with monthly headcount growth of +3.7%. - LinkedIn followers: 3,211 (+3.8% monthly). - Monthly website visits: ~6,834 with +1.8% traffic growth. - Used by “hundreds” of architecture, engineering, inspection, and contractor companies. - Offices in Berkeley (HQ), India, Thailand, and Italy. ## Competitive Advantages - **Construction‑native AI**: Trained specifically on construction data and language, unlike generic AI tools. - **Upstream focus**: Optimizes decisions during preconstruction (planning, code, takeoffs, bidding) – the phase with highest cost impact. - **Transparency**: All AI outputs show step‑by‑step reasoning and direct source citations, building trust with AEC professionals. - **Integrated platform**: Combines code research, takeoffs, and bid leveling in one workflow, reducing tool switching. ## Strategic Focus - **Preconstruction automation**: Continue expanding AI capabilities to automate the most time‑intensive preconstruction tasks. - **Scale go‑to‑market**: Grow customer base across contractors, architects, and inspectors; deepen integration with existing construction ecosystems. - **Talent acquisition**: Hiring across engineering (Python, SQL, GraphQL, Java), sales, and design to accelerate product development. ## Why Work Here - **Mission‑driven**: Solve real productivity problems in a $13 trillion global industry ripe for transformation. - **Fast‑growth startup**: Seed stage with strong funding and rapid headcount growth; early employees have high impact. - **Engineering culture**: AI‑first, construction‑knowledgeable team; modern tech stack (GraphQL, Python, Figma, etc.). - **Remote flexibility**: Presence across US, India, Thailand, and Italy – likely distributed team with Berkeley as HQ. - **Perks**: Not detailed, but typical startup perks (equity, flexible PTO) can be expected. - **Transparent processes**: Uses Greenhouse for applications; careers page emphasizes solving “construction’s planning problem.” ## Sources 1.
