Job Description

Candid is building the AI layer for EPCsWe use AI to automate the repetitive mechanical engineering tasks that slow projects down. This means everything from reading drawings, comparing datasheets, reviewing vendor packages, coordinating with other disciplines, and closing tasks. Our goal is to make preconstruction 10x faster.We recently raised $6.5M from top AI and industrial investors (including Schneider Electric and Meta's Chief AI Scientist). Our team includes engineers from MIT, Carnegie Mellon, major LNG/power projects, and leading EPCs.If you’re a mechanical engineer who is tired of rework, inconsistency, and constant document chasing, and you believe AI can remove bottlenecks, we would love to work with you.
