Bite is the AI infrastructure layer for the built environment. Built by engineers, Bite connects design tools, automates workflows, and surfaces project knowledge so engineering teams can work faster and avoid manual re-entry or cascading errors. Its product features include intelligent search across past projects, change detection and orchestration when designs change, and compliance/audit trails; it is used by structural engineering teams (notably across the UK).

📋 Description

• Join Bite as one of our first engineers. • Ship across the full stack to paying customers. • Work directly with the founders, and own real pieces of the knowledge graph that powers everything we build. • Build features from a conversation with a customer through design, implementation, tests, and deployment. • Improve extraction or retrieval quality in the Python ML/RAG workers and measure whether it actually got better. • Sit in on a design partner call and watch a structural engineer use what you built last week. • Make pragmatic calls on tech debt with the team: what to fix now, what to log, and why.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of experience with a track record of shipping and owning production systems. • Strong backend experience, ideally Node.js/TypeScript or Python in a production context, and comfortable reading across other languages (C#, Python or TypeScript). • Working knowledge of distributed systems fundamentals: async queues, event-driven workflows. • The instinct to keep things simple under pressure, and the judgement to know when a tactical shortcut is right and when it isn't. • Genuine product sense. You think about the user before you think about the implementation. • Clear communication. We move between deeply technical, semi-technical and plain-language conversations every day, and we value clarity above speed. • Kindness, curiosity, optimism and drive. We believe in being kind over being nice, we give and receive constructive feedback constantly, and we're building something bigger than ourselves.

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive salary + early-team equity
