Monaro is building the intelligence layer for mechanical teams. Our platform reads equipment schedules straight out of PDF construction drawings, runs the quantity takeoff, manages supplier pricing requests and produces a formatted quote. Work that used to take an estimator six hours now takes under twenty minutes.

Our customers are HVAC distributors and mechanical contractors. They win or lose commercial projects on how rapid and how accurately they can quote, and most of them still do it by hand today. We want to own that moment end to end and become the system these teams run their business on.

Monaro is a product within Torinit's venture studio. Torinit is VC-backed, which means you get early-stage product ownership with the engineering bench and funding of an established company behind it.

The Role

This is the role that shapes how Monaro gets built. You will lead engineering as a player-coach, reporting to the Founder, and work with lead engineers to develop the technical roadmap for the platform. The document extraction pipeline is the product.



It has to read construction drawings accurately enough that an estimator will stake a commercial bid on what comes out.

Roughly 30% of your time is hands‑on, most of it on that pipeline and the architecture around it. The other 70% goes to building the engineering team and improving the way we ship software.

You will be part of our Canadian team, working through senior engineers and leads in our India office, part of a 20+ person engineering group. This is one engineering organization rather than a head office and an outsourced arm. You are the first engineering leader dedicated to Monaro, so the standards and the technical direction are yours to set, but you are setting them with an experienced team already in place rather than from nothing.

Expect some early‑morning overlap with the India team as part of the rhythm. You will also work closely with Product, Design and
