Meet Augrade

Augrade is a construction technology company building AI-native software to automate design, estimation, documentation and other preconstruction workflows. Its Dreamspace platform works with building plans and spatial data to generate and manage BIM models, quantity take-offs, cost information and construction documentation. Augrade says its systems combine AI, computer vision, geometric reasoning and BIM intelligence to help owners, real-estate developers, general contractors, architects and engineers move from project concepts toward construction faster. The company is also developing workflows around scan-to-BIM, parametric design and multidisciplinary building-model generation.View more

Why work here

Augrade offers candidates the opportunity to work on technically difficult problems at the intersection of AI, computer vision, geometry, BIM and construction engineering. Current roles describe a team of roughly 32 people working on foundational AI models, scan-to-BIM pipelines, geometric and physics engines, and automated code-compliant building generation. The company says it has already worked on 120+ projects worth $5.8B across five countries. Engineering roles emphasize end-to-end ownership and direct influence over core systems rather than narrowly scoped implementation work. Some roles advertise equity, generous PTO or sick leave and, for selected candidates, visa sponsorship. As an early-stage company, it may suit candidates who value autonomy and technical breadth, while also carrying the uncertainty typical of a young startup.Read more
