Arcforma AI (arcforma.ai) | AI Engineer (Marketing / Construction / Fashion & Luxury) | REMOTE (US only) or ONSITE NYC | Full-Time $80k-$120k + equity, or Contract $50-$150/hr | jobs@arcforma.ai
We build production AI systems inside other people's companies: hotel groups, automotive retail, creative agencies, consumer brands. One industry at a time, sitting next to the operator whose job the system changes. Very little of it is generic LLM plumbing.
Two ways in.
CONTRACT, PROJECT-BASED ($50-$150/hr). For people who already have the domain. A scoped first project, typically three to six weeks. This is most of what we need right now, and it is how we would rather start with anyone senior.
FULL-TIME ($80k-$120k + equity). For strong engineers earlier on who want to go deep into one industry with us instead of staying a generalist. We teach you the vertical. You bring the engineering.
Pick one track. Depth in one beats a tour of all three.
MARKETING. Lifecycle and CRM automation, brief-to-asset pipelines, creative variants with brand guardrails that hold, attribution. You have fought HubSpot, Klaviyo, and the Meta and Google ad APIs.
CONSTRUCTION. Invoices in, mapped to contracts, schedule of values, and cost codes, back out as pay applications. Then RFIs, submittals, change orders, schedule impacts. You know why generic invoice parsers stall when half the input is handwritten. Weighted toward ex construction tech and people who have run operations at a GC or a sub.
FASHION AND LUXURY. Merchandising and assortment planning, tech packs and PLM, Shopify Plus and PIM, allocation, replenishment, demand forecasting, size curves, markdown optimization, clienteling, creative workflows.
ALL TRACKS: You own a system end to end (data in, evals, an interface the client actually opens), and you can sit with a non-technical operator and leave with the right spec.
