This is a solo role building the operational nervous system for our implementation team - the automations, workflows, and tools that let 20+ people move 10x faster. You'll own outcomes that directly impact our Time-to-Value and revenue. You'll work in ambiguity, ship fast, and learn the construction finance business while you build. This is not a junior support role. You're the only person writing code here. You move. What You'll Actually Do Build internal tools and automations using AI and agentic frameworks (Claude, LLMs, MCP servers) on top of Built's bapps infrastructure Ship fast and iterate—if it works and people use it, it's good. If it doesn't, kill it and build the next thing Work from real operational pain points (your team will tell you exactly what's broken) Own the full stack: design, build, deploy, measure, iterate based on what actually gets used Learn the real estate finance domain by shipping solutions, not by reading docs Partner with product and engineering to understand our architecture and use it What Success Looks Like Your code directly reduces manual hours on the implementation team (and you'll measure it) You ship your first tool within your first 30 days You get comfortable shipping and iterating quickly with real feedback People on your team actually use the things you build - adoption matters You grow from "new grad" to "engineer who owns critical internal systems" in 12-18 months Required Recent Computer Science graduate or software engineer with up to ~1 year of experience (including internships, co-ops, or substantial academic projects). 0–2 years of professional or serious personal project experience (bootcamp counts; passion projects count) Ability to write clean code in any modern language (you'll pick up our stack) Comfort with ambiguity and ownership - you'll get a problem statement, not a spec Genuine curiosity about the business - why we're automating this, what it enables downstream Speed and shipping bias over perfection Preferred Hands-on with AI/LLM tools or agentic frameworks (even a personal project) Experience with APIs and integrations Ability to...
