Revenue‑share from day one (no salary).

What You’re Really Signing Up For

Urbana Systems™ isn’t tinkering with incremental upgrades; we’re rebuilding the built environment around SmartWalls™—prefab, movable wall modules that pack:

•

Solid‑state TEC HVAC for near‑silent, duct‑free climate control

•

Integrated air & water purification loops

•

Potable‑water and power‑storage reservoirs

•

Private, on‑device AI for hyper‑local automation (no cloud reliance)

•

Dense sensor/actuator networks with fail‑safe redundancy

•

Transducers & on‑wall displays for ambient info and comms

•

Full lighting, comms, and building‑automation backbones

If the phrase “building‑scale cyber‑physical system” gets your blood pumping, keep reading.

Core Mandate

•

Own the Tech Stack – Architect, integrate, and continuously harden every subsystem inside SmartWalls™ and our broader conversion platform.

•

Crush Complexity – Translate wicked, multi‑domain problems (structure, MEP, firmware, AI, supply‑chain) into deployable, scalable solutions.

•

Build the Bench – Recruit and mentor a strike team of multidisciplinary engineers who can execute at startup speed with enterprise rigor.

•

Drive Revenue – Technology decisions must shorten conversion timelines, slash cap‑ex/op‑ex, and open new monetization channels.

•

Safeguard Compliance – Make sure every bolt, byte, and line of code passes PE seal, ADA, life‑safety, and sustainability thresholds.

Must‑Haves

•

Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) — civil, mechanical, electrical, or systems; multi‑state registration a plus.

•

20+ years engineering track record delivering products that shipped, scaled, and survived real‑world abuse.

•

Fluency across HVAC, power electronics/storage, embedded systems, IoT, low‑voltage, controls, and prefab manufacturing.

•

Documented wins in complex problem‑solving—think moon‑landing stuff, not corporate busywork.

•

Proven revenue impact: you’ve turned R&D into dollars, not just patents.

•

U.S. citizen or Permanent Resident. Remote‑first, but you travel when a site or factory needs boots on the ground.

Deal‑Breakers

•

If your expertise is confined to pure IT, data, or software, this isn’t your sandbox.

•

If you need corporate hand‑holding or a crystal‑clear playbook, look elsewhere—we’re writing the playbook as we go.

How to Throw Your Hat In

Send a concise résumé and a blunt cover note explaining:

•

How you’ve solved one cross‑disciplinary engineering problem that rivals SmartWalls™ in complexity.

•

How you will convert technology choices into measurable revenue within 6 or 12 months.

•

Respond the questions in a separate email to walter.moss@gmail.com with a brief description and concrete examples, failure to complete this step will result in immediate rejection of your application.

•

Skip the buzzwords; show the receipts.
