## Job description

## SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Location: New York, NY (Hybrid) | Type: Full-Time | Reports to: Head of Revenue

## ABOUT NOMIC

Nomic builds AI agents and developer tools that power the built world. We help enterprise teams in architecture, engineering, and construction extract structured knowledge from decades of drawings, specs, and project files. Our platform combines embedding models, document parsing, and autonomous agents that reason over real-world data and take action in live environments.

## THE ROLE

We're looking for a senior full-stack engineer to build product across the Nomic platform. You'll work on the interfaces, APIs, and backend systems that enterprise customers and developers use daily — from our web application to our Developer API.

Most of your day-to-day coding will involve directing and managing AI coding agents. We're not interested in people who are curious about this — we need someone already doing it, with the architectural judgment to use it effectively. That means knowing how to decompose work for agents, reviewing output with a critical eye, maintaining codebase coherence when code is being generated at speed, and never letting velocity become an excuse for slop. The bar is engineering excellence: clean architecture, thoughtful abstractions, code that other people can work in.

## WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

- Product features end-to-end — UI through API through data layer
- Backend services in Python and TypeScript
- Frontend in React/TypeScript
- APIs that serve both our product and external developers
- Integration points with our AI and agent systems

## WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Strong full-stack skills — you're comfortable owning frontend and backend
- Production experience with Python and TypeScript
- Active, intentional use of AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) — not as a novelty but as your primary workflow
- Good instincts for API design, data modeling, and system architecture
- You write code that's clear, tested, and easy to change — whether you typed it or an agent did
- You care about the end-user experience, not just the implementation

## EVEN BETTER IF YOU HAVE:

- Experience building developer-facing products or APIs
- Familiarity with AI/ML systems — embeddings, retrieval, model integration
- Background in enterprise software or B2B products

## WHAT WE OFFER

- Competitive base salary and performance-based compensation
- Equity participation
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Flexible PTO
- Hybrid NYC work model (3 days in office)
- High-visibility role on a small team

## About Nomic

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Nomic is a domain-specific AI platform that transforms unstructured data into AI-ready knowledge for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms.

- Mission: "Accelerating the design and construction of the built world through AI."

## Products & Services
- **Nomic Platform**: AI agents that automate AEC workflows—RFP responses, QA/QC reviews, code compliance, document parsing, and intelligent search across drawings, specs, and project data. SaaS platform.
- **Developer API**: RESTful APIs (nomic-embed-text, nomic-embed-vision, drawing parse) with Python and JavaScript SDKs. Trained on 100,000s of drawings and project files. Supports PDFs, images, CAD files, and more.
- **GPT4All**: Open-source tool to run AI models locally on any device with no cloud connection required. Cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Linux). Focus on privacy and offline inference.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed (private company)
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding $17M (Series A, July 2023, led by Coatue with 12 investors); Estimated annual revenue ~$1M per LinkedIn
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Coatue (lead), 12 investors; Partnership details not publicly listed
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount of 16 (+10% YoY; +4.8% monthly); LinkedIn followers 8,022 (+30% YoY); Active hiring for Senior Software Engineer, Senior Platform Engineer, Account Executive (APAC), Customer Success Manager, and Growth Engineer

## Competitive Advantages
- Domain-specific AI models trained exclusively on AEC content (100,000s of drawings and project files) – reduces hallucinations common in generic AI.
- Zero data retention policy; legally binding agreements with external providers; flexible deployment (cloud, on-premise, hybrid, private cloud) – strong data security and privacy.
- GPT4All open-source project builds brand credibility in the AI developer community and enables privacy-first local inference.
- Focus on institutional knowledge capture for AEC firms, turning scattered documents into AI-ready, actionable insights.

## Strategic Focus
- Expand domain-aware AI agents to automate critical AEC workflows (submittal reviews, code compliance, RFPs).
- Grow international sales presence (APAC region hiring).
- Deepen developer platform with more API capabilities and SDKs.
- Publish research (white papers, academic publications) to establish thought leadership in AEC AI.

## Why Work Here
- Early-stage startup (16 employees, Series A) offering significant ownership and impact across engineering, product, and go-to-market.
- Hybrid work model based in New York, NY (most roles listed as Hybrid).
- Cutting-edge AI research environment with open-source contributions (GPT4All, research publications).
- Strong security-first culture; engineers work on infrastructure for autonomous agents, compliance, and data governance.
- Diverse distributed team (USA, Canada, Ukraine) with a collaborative, mission-driven atmosphere.
