ABOUT CAMBIO

Cambio is a software platform for real estate decarbonization. We help commercial real estate owners bring their portfolios to net-zero with an AI-driven sustainability, asset, and investment management platform.

THE ROLE

We're looking for an AI Engineer to build AI-powered features, help teammates do their best work, and have fun doing it.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

- Build AI features end-to-end, from prototype to production

- Design and run evals to measure and improve model/feature quality

- Build and maintain data + inference pipelines that power AI features in production

- Experiment with new models, prompting, and retrieval approaches to improve accuracy and cost

- Support and collaborate with your teammates

WHO YOU ARE

- An A-player: low ego, curious, and serious about your craft

- You are outcome driven

- You ship through obstacles — roadblocks are part of the problem to solve

- You move with urgency and close the week with visible impact

- You're relentlessly curious and treat truth-seeking as a discipline

- You believe iteration speed is quality - the way to build great things is to build fast and learn faster

- You show up for your teammates, in person. You unblock before being asked and never let someone stay stuck

- You own your work end-to-end - proactive about visibility, proud of your progress, and you over-communicate until everyone is fully aligned

WHAT DO YOU BRING

- Experienced in Python web development (Django is a bonus)

- Someone who's shipped AI features and understands the eval challenges that come with them

- Hands-on experience with LLMs/generative AI (prompting, fine-tuning, or RAG)

- Comfortable with evaluation frameworks and measuring model quality in production

- Familiar with vector databases and retrieval-based architectures

- Understands the tradeoffs between model cost, latency, and accuracy

WHAT WE OFFER

- Competitive compensation and startup equity

- Flexible time off

- $1,200 annual learning budget
