- Tune Higharc's Autotranslate AI to identify, categorize, and translate floorplans into structured data
- Create geometric similarity scoring and classification models to surface duplicate or forked plans across a catalog
- Travel to client sites and company events up to 30% of the time to deliver and validate solutions
What they're looking for
- SQL and data querying
- Python or scripting for API integration and ETL
- Data modeling and taxonomy design
- Machine learning classification and similarity algorithms
- Rapid prototyping with tools like Cursor or Replit
- Data quality assessment and validation
