Director, Engineering

Stratus, deriving from the Latin term meaning 'layer', offers an advanced set of MEP-specific solutions that seamlessly layer across a contractor's entire workflow from design to fabrication to installation. Our team of seasoned industry experts, skilled technology leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs understands that fabrication does not occur in isolation, and increasingly, it may not happen within your own fabrication shop. Through close relationships with our customers — who include some of the most innovative and largest MEP contractors — we have developed a suite of Stratus tools to digitize, automate, and optimize piping, plumbing, sheet metal, and electrical contracting. Stratus provides the software layer an MEP contractor needs to optimize profits with true "Data-Driven Contracting."

About the Role

The growth is proven. Stratus has built a platform customers depend on and a market that is accelerating. The next chapter is scale and compounding value: more customers, deeper workflows, and an AI layer that gives MEP fabrication shops capabilities they could not build on their own.

You will be among the first engineering leaders to put a genuine AI agent into a fabrication workflow that a real shop floor runs on. That has not been done at scale. This role is where it gets built. And you will build it while keeping the core product shipping to a rapidly growing customer base. You will need to hold both.

You will report to the CTO, peer with Directors and Senior Directors across engineering, and partner day to day with the Head of Product and GTM leadership. This role is fully remote. We meet quarterly as a leadership team and make regular visits to customer shop floors. You will know what your software looks like when it is running in a real fabrication environment.

Lead product focused teams delivering against the Stratus roadmap, bringing engineering and AI capability together to ship what customers depend on.
