Brazil-based late Co-founder

About Constructer.ai

Constructer.ai is an AI startup providing SaaS to construction companies and stakeholders involved in large infrastructure and construction projects. These projects often involve multiple teams from different organizations and are highly complex. When teams lack accurate, timely information, decisions slow down, delays increase, and projects can exceed their planned costs.

Constructer helps project teams understand the state of a project in real time, make more effective decisions, and deliver projects on time and on budget.

We are looking for an entrepreneurial late co-founder to help build Constructer.ai’s presence in the region. Ideally based in São Paulo, you will work closely with the founders to develop the business, build trusted relationships across the construction sector, and turn early opportunities into lasting customer partnerships.

Job Description

As Constructer.ai’s Late Co-Founder, you will take broad ownership of building the business in Brazil. This is a single, senior role with a mix of commercial leadership, customer development, partnerships, and local operations. You will work directly with the founders and collaborate with the product, software, and customer success teams.

You will develop relationships with contractors, project owners, consultants, and other industry stakeholders; identify promising use cases and pilot opportunities; and help convert successful pilots into long-term customers. You’ll also bring a strong understanding of ConTech to the role, helping us adapt our go-to-market approach to the needs and realities of the Brazilian construction market.

This is an equity-based co-founder opportunity for someone who wants to help build a company over the long term. It suits a self-directed, hands-on person who enjoys creating momentum in an early-stage business and is comfortable working through ambiguity.

Responsibilities

- Work closely with the founders to develop and execute Constructer.ai’s commercial and operational strategy for Brazil.

- Build Constructer.ai’s presence and reputation in the Brazilian construction market.

- Generate and qualify business opportunities across construction and infrastructure.

- Develop trusted relationships with contractors, developers, project owners, consultants, insurers, government organizations, and other relevant stakeholders.

- Lead customer conversations, product demonstrations, and commercial negotiations.

- Identify and manage pilot projects, from initial engagement through implementation and evaluation.

- Turn successful pilots into long-term customer relationships and recurring business.

- Develop partnerships with industry associations, universities, and technology providers.

- Represent Constructer.ai at conferences, exhibitions, and industry events.

- Gather customer feedback and market intelligence, and share it with the founders and product team.

- Work with the software and customer success teams to support customer onboarding and successful delivery.

- Manage the local business pipeline and contribute to Constructer.ai’s growth in Brazil.

- Take on the hands-on work needed to establish and grow the business locally.

Qualifications

Required

- Strong fluency in ConTech startups: a clear understanding of construction technology, the construction market, and how digital tools can address industry needs.

- An entrepreneurial, ownership-oriented approach, with the ability to work independently and make progress in an early-stage company.

- Strong commercial judgment and the ability to build customer relationships and identify business opportunities.

- A track record of execution, such as winning customers, growing revenue, launching a market, managing successful projects, or improving business operations.

- Comfort working across commercial, customer, partnership, and operational activities.

- Willingness to travel within Brazil as needed.

- Fluent in Portuguese and English, with excellent written and verbal communication skills in both languages.

Strongly preferred

- A background in construction, infrastructure, engineering, construction management, or a related field.

- Experience in business development, project management, or commercial roles within the construction industry.

- Experience with ConTech, B2B SaaS, AI, BIM, project controls, or digital transformation.

- An established or willing to build a network in the Brazilian construction sector.

- Based in São Paulo, or able to spend substantial time there.

Direct experience at a ConTech or SaaS startup would be valuable, but the most important fit is a strong understanding of ConTech, founder-level ownership, and the ability to build relationships and deliver results in Brazil.

What We Offer

- An equity-based late co-founder opportunity.

- Direct access to the founders and a meaningful role in strategic decisions.

- The opportunity to build Constructer.ai’s presence and operations in Brazil.

- A broad, hands-on role with the ability to shape how the company develops in the market.

- Flexible remote or hybrid working arrangements.

- The opportunity to help shape AI-powered construction management in one of the world’s largest construction markets.

NOTE:

- If you are not Brazilian, please do not apply.
