AI & Digital Execution Architect – JCK USA

Job Title: AI & Digital Execution Architect
Company: JCK USA
Location: Atlanta, GA (Hybrid/Remote with Regular Site Visits)
Employment Type: Full‑Time, Permanent
Industry: Automated Material Handling (AMH) – Warehouse & Airport Installation
Reports To: President / Operations Director

About JCK USA

JCK USA is a mechanical and electrical installation company specializing in automated material handling (AMH) systems for warehouses and airports. We are building a new type of construction services business, one that operates with the precision, repeatability, and data‑driven decision‑making normally found in advanced manufacturing.

Our installation operating system (SIOS) is the backbone of this transformation, and this role is central to bringing it to life.

Role Overview

As the AI & Digital Execution Architect, you will design and build the digital tools, automation, and AI systems that make our project execution measurable, predictable, and coachable, without adding admin burden to field teams.

This is a build‑from‑scratch role focused on creating the technology stack for a company launching with AI and digital tools at its core. You will work closely with a field‑based Installation Systems & Methods Engineer who develops installation processes; your mission is to turn that expertise into scalable, intelligent digital products.

What You Will Build & Own

• Real‑time progress tracking using mobile inputs, photos/video, QR/barcode tagging
• Dashboards for site teams, PMs, and executives
• Visual intelligence using 360° cameras and computer vision
• Predictive forecasting based on actual production curves
• Automated daily/weekly reporting
• Real‑time earned value metrics (CPI/SPI)

• Parametric estimating models based on system quantities and historical data
• Automated quantity take‑off from 2D/3D models where feasible
• Labor planning, crew loading, and lookahead tools
• Scenario modeling with cost/schedule impacts
• Risk premium calculations tied to known execution challenges

• Digital task cards with steps, visuals, safety controls, tooling needs
• Quality gates requiring evidence (photo/measurement/sign‑off)
• Version control and document governance
• Exploration of medium‑term AR instruction overlays

• Role‑based learning paths for field staff and supervisors
• Microlearning modules designed for tablets and offline use
• Skills matrix with measurable competency levels
• AI tutoring capability for field Q&A
• Train‑the‑trainer content and assessment templates

• Daily plan templates, issue logs, shift handover tools
• AI‑assisted issue clustering and searchable knowledge base
• Digital permit‑to‑work with geofencing and automated tracking
• Wearable/sensor technology evaluation
• Leading indicator tracking (near‑misses, hazards, PTP compliance)
• 6. Data Architecture

• Unified model for progress, estimating, methods, training, safety, and quality
• API integrations with client systems (Procore, integrator platforms)
• Data security and compliance aligned with client expectations

How You Will Work

• Report directly to the President/Ops Director
• Partner weekly with the Methods Engineer
• Rapid prototyping and field validation cycles
• Quarterly on‑site sessions with active project teams
• Field‑first mindset: tools must work in dust, limited connectivity, and real‑world conditions

Technology Principles

• Commercial tools where they fit; custom solutions where they don’t
• Cloud‑native, mobile‑first interfaces
• Explainable AI that field teams can trust
• Open standards; avoid vendor lock‑in
• “Two‑tap rule” for routine tasks

What We’re Looking For (Essential)

• Proven experience deploying AI/ML tools in field, industrial, or operational environments
• Strong software engineering skills (cloud architecture, APIs, mobile development, data modeling)
• Experience with predictive analytics or NLP
• Ability to create intuitive UX for non‑technical users
• Dashboard/reporting system development experience
• Entrepreneurial mindset and ability to build from zero
• Strong communication skills across technical and field teams

Highly Desirable

• Experience in construction, logistics, manufacturing, or other industrial sectors
• Familiarity with BIM tools (Navisworks, Revit, AutoCAD) or construction platforms (Procore)
• Knowledge of lean construction/lean manufacturing
• LMS or microlearning platform experience
• Background in high‑procedure industries (aviation, automotive, nuclear, healthcare)
• Exposure to AR, IoT, or wearable tech

Mindset That Thrives Here

• Build for users, not for demos
• Comfortable with ambiguity, requirements come from fieldwork
• Ship fast, iterate fast
• Choose practical solutions (AI when needed, rules/templates when better)
• Prioritize safety in every tool you build

How Success Is Measured

• >80% objective progress tracking adoption within 12 months
• Reporting lag reduced from weekly to same‑day
• Improved plan‑vs‑actual variance and forecast accuracy
• Reduced rework and non‑conformance rates
• Improved safety leading‑indicator capture
• Faster, more accurate estimating cycles

Compensation & Benefits

• Base Salary: $90,000–$110,000 (based on experience)
• Performance Bonus: Up to 10% tied to operational outcomes
• Benefits: Health, dental, vision, 401(k)
• Professional Development: Annual budget for certifications, training, and conferences

Why Join JCK USA

This is a rare opportunity to help build a tech‑enabled construction company from the ground up. The AMH industry is evolving rapidly, and major clients are demanding higher predictability and precision from installation partners. JCK USA is committed to leading that shift—and this role plays a defining part.

How to Apply

Please submit your resume and a brief cover note explaining:

• A project where you built/deployed AI or digital tools in an operational environment
• Why this role and industry interest you
• Your approach to building tools for non‑technical field users

JCK USA is an equal opportunity employer and values diverse perspectives.
