We help institutional real estate teams automate complex development and acquisitions workflows so important projects move from concept to completion faster, with less cost, delay, and operational drag.Our customers include some of the largest institutions in the world: alternative asset investors, hyperscale developers, infrastructure owners, energy companies, and public-sector partners. We are backed by Tier 1 VC and angels/C-suite from from Palantir, OpenAI, Blackstone, and Google DeepMind.About the roleWe are not looking for someone to fill a seat. We are looking for someone who sees what Build is building, knows where they fit, and wants to come in and make that contribution real."If you have to ask what the role is, it probably isn't for you. If you already know, come and talk to us."Build is at a stage where the right person can define a function, own a relationship, or unlock a capability that we haven't fully articulated yet. If you've built something before, you know what that moment looks like and what it requires.We are particularly interested in people who have operated at the intersection of AI, real estate, infrastructure, or complex enterprise services. But we will not rule out anyone who makes a compelling case for why they belong here.You might be a good fit if youFounded or co-founded something that had tractionHave an extremely unconventional background that led you to startupsAre technical enough to work directly with AI systems and evaluate what good looks likeThrive when the playbook doesn't exist and you have to write itMove fast, communicate clearly, and don't need to be told what to do nextAre genuinely curious about the built world, not just AI in the abstractHave strong opinions about quality and won't let things ship below the barHave a love for the built world that goes far beyond Build as a companyYou will not be a good fit if youNeed a defined role, clear reporting lines, and a predictable roadmapWant to advise rather than executeAre not comfortable making decisions with incomplete information and owning the outcomeThink the built world is just a market vertical, not one of the most important problems of the next decade
