The AI models exist. Now build what people actually use
On-site | Vancouver Office – 675 W Hastings St.
The Problem We're Solving
Dental labs and clinics across 28 countries are still designing crowns by hand. Not because better technology doesn't exist — but because no one has built the intelligent system that makes it seamless. EviSmart is building that system. It's live, it's in production, and it's only getting faster
Why EviSmart
- 300 people. Two hubs: Vancouver HQ and Manila operations.
- 145% year-over-year SaaS growth — the market is responding.
- 28 countries. One platform. The dental industry's Autopilot.
- An in-house AI model research and development team building proprietary intelligence.
Why This Role, Right Now
Most engineers who work in AI are one layer removed from the models — consuming outputs, wrapping APIs, waiting for the research team to hand something over. This role is different. EviSmart's AI research team is actively building the models that automate dental crown design. What doesn't exist yet is the engineer who sits at that boundary and owns the full product experience on the other side of it.
The AI has been proven. The scale is coming. The person who joins now gets to define what it feels like to use — and that's the kind of problem that doesn't come around often.
A Note from the Team
"We're looking for someone genuinely curious about user problems, honest about tradeoffs, and who takes real ownership of what they ship. We don't need someone who needs a perfectly scoped ticket; we need someone who takes a clear goal and runs with it. You'll work closely with our AI research team and be expected to go from understanding the problem to delivering the outcome. If that's how you already think, we'd love to talk."
— Paolo Kalaw, CEO, EviSmart
What You’ll Own
- Own The full application layer for EviSmart's AI Design products — everything the user sees, touches, and depends on
- Build The AI Crown product experience from end to end: case submission, 3D design viewer, acceptance and rejection flows, and the preference UI that makes the product feel like it was built for each dentist specifically
- Define The integration between the AI Design module and the broader EviSmart dashboard — the entry point where lab owners launch AI Design and the results that flow back
- Instrument The data infrastructure that connects AI output to product metrics — every feature you ship is instrumented before it goes live
- Own A production codebase, end-to-end. You write the tests, manage the deployments, watch the monitors. No hand-off to a separate ops team
What You'll Get
- A seat where AI model decisions and product decisions meet. Most engineers spend their careers one layer removed from this. You won't be.
- Real ownership — you inherit a codebase, assess it honestly, and build from there. No committee approval for architectural decisions.
- Production AI tooling from day one: Claude, Cursor, and LLM-powered workflows built in-house — not a sandbox, not a pilot.
- A category-defining problem in a $40B industry with 28 countries of live customers. The feedback loop is real and it's fast.
- A direct growth path — mid-senior today, senior engineer next, technical lead as the product scales. The trajectory is concrete, not aspirational.
- Competitive compensation with salary range disclosed at offer.
How We Work
We ship before we’re 100% certain. We write things down because we have two offices and memory is lossy. We debate loudly and move without resentment. We treat the customer’s real problem as more important than an elegant internal process. If you’ve spent time waiting for permission to try something obvious — you’ll notice the difference here immediately.
The Question You're Probably Asking
"Is dental really where I want to build my AI career? Here's the honest answer: the strongest full-stack engineers in AI work in verticals where the problem is hard, the data is rich, and the incumbent software hasn't been rebuilt in a generation. Dental fits all three. You're not competing with fifty other engineers solving the same well-documented problem at a FAANG-adjacent company. You're the person who builds the product that proves AI can actually automate complex clinical design — with a real 3D viewer, a real ML team, and real customer data to work with."
— EviSmart Talent Team
What We Need
- 4–6 years of full-stack experience with strong React / TypeScript on the frontend and real backend capability (Node.js or Python).
- Experience building data-intensive interfaces — you know what it takes to make a 3D viewer or large-file preview feel fast, not just functional.
- You've worked alongside ML or AI teams before — you understand model output well enough to make product trade-offs without a translator.
- You can own a codebase end-to-end: architecture decisions, test coverage, deployment, and production monitoring.
- Strong communicator — we're a distributed team and clear async writing is a core engineering skill here, not a soft skill afterthought.
