Senior Automation & AI Engineer

Founded in New Zealand in 2017, Timescapes is a visual progress tracking solution for complex construction projects. Our mission is to simplify construction through shared visibility. Customers love Timescapes because it helps them stay on schedule, validate construction claims and communicate progress more effectively.

We’re a rapidly growing company, and are used by some of the largest construction firms across Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States.

The Role

We're hiring a hands-on builder to lead AI and data across Timescapes: someone who finds the highest-leverage problems in the business and solves them with agentic AI, automation and better data.

You will work across every team at Timescapes, understand how work actually flows, and then build and streamline the workflows. Some of that is agentic AI but plenty of the time the right answer is a simple automation, fixing the process underneath, or removing a step nobody needed. 

This is an individual contributor role. You will scope the work, build it yourself where that is fastest, and bring in vendors or contractors where that makes more sense.

Location: Auckland, New Zealand. Hybrid, in-office.

Reporting to: Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, moving to the Chief Operating Officer in time. 

Scope: Internal-facing, you are improving how Timescapes runs. AI inside our product is owned by a separate team, and building customer-facing AI
