Design Automation Engineer, Architectural Design, BIM

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain production tools for the design team that are stable, save real time, and work well with our downstream design automation systems.
• Collaborate with highly interdisciplinary teams to design and implement software automation that drives efficiency and throughput on the architecture and business development teams.
• Build the exchange layer between our internal model and external MEP consultants so they don't bottleneck the process or lock us into their stack.
• Build auto-takeoff from BIM to produce high-confidence estimates during design.
• Build tooling that helps architects iterate through value-engineering options quickly.
• Collaborate with software engineers to build and support reliable, effective tools.

• Bachelor's degree in architecture or engineering, or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years experience in design/CAD/BIM automation, ideally in Type III or Type V / residential construction.
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate cross-functionally and build consensus around a technical vision.
• Strong general coding experience, ideally in Python and/or Type Script.
• Experience with automated testing and releases/deployments.
• Used Revit in a professional setting and have built integrations with Revit yourself (such as Revit plugins, Dynamo, py Revit, or APS).
• Built API integrations with other systems (any protocol, just that you've interfaced with real-world external systems).
• Foundational knowledge of parametric design.
• Experience using coding agents; builds prototypes, collaborates, and gets to a solution rapidly. A 0-to-1 builder.

Demonstrates expertise in design and automation tools, particularly in BIM and CAD environments, with a strong foundation in Python and Type Script for developing integrations and enhancing architectural workflows. Proven ability to collaborate across teams to drive efficiency and implement technical solutions in residential construction.
