About Primepoint

Primepoint is building construction intelligence for the physical world. We transform massive, static construction datasets into an interactive AI system that surfaces conflicts and reduces risk on $100M–$3B+ building projects.

We go beyond LLM wrappers and focus on multimodal reasoning across diagrams, text, and structured data.

Founders:

• Founded Facebook’s first Computer Vision team

• Helped build Facebook AI Research

• Built and sold a neural video compression startup to Apple

Team:

• ~$10M seed

• Paying customers

The Role

We are hiring an Applied ML / Computer Vision Research Engineer with a strong academic background and product mindset.

You will:

• Develop models for understanding technical drawings and specifications

• Work on multimodal reasoning across diagrams, text, and structured data

• Translate research into production systems within ~1 year horizons

• Present prior research and apply it to real-world constraints

• Collaborate closely with founders

This is applied research. Everything must impact customers.

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have

• PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, or related field

• Publications in top-tier venues (CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, ICML preferred)

• Applied orientation (not purely theoretical)

• Strong engineering capability

• Based in Bay Area, in-person

Ideal, but not required

• Document understanding / diagram analysis

• Vision-language / multimodal experience

• Knowledge graphs / structured reasoning

• Production ML experience
