We are seeking a
Principal– Digital Delivery to own and engineer the digital backbone of architectural project delivery.

This is a senior technical role for someone who goes beyond traditional BIM management and coordination. The focus is information architecture, interoperability, data integrity, automation, and analytics—ensuring that design data is reliable, structured, and usable throughout the lifecycle of architectural projects.

Working in close partnership with the Digital Lead, this role owns how architectural information is structured, exchanged,validated, and reported. Success is measured by digital reliability: projects that move fast, iterate safely, and deliver without data loss, rework, or manual policing.

• Define and govern the information architecture for architectural projects: data structures, schemas, classifications, parameters,andnaming systems aligned with ISO 19650.
• Design andmaintainlossless data exchange workflows between architectural platforms (Revit, Rhino, and related tools), ensuring information survives iteration without corruption or rework.
• Own and document data mappings, exchange rules, and validationlogicso interoperability is predictable, testable, and auditable.
• Develop andvalidateinformation structures directly within project environments, ensuring they work in real delivery conditions—not just in theoretical workflows.

• Implement automated quality‑assurance systems using Python, Dynamo, Power Automate, or similar tools to continuouslyvalidatemodel and data integrity.
• Ensure automated QA systems are continuously tested and refined against live project outputs, capturing true delivery failure points and data‑quality risks.
• Work with project teams to interpret analytics and translate digital health findings into clear, actionable technical improvements.
• Lead digital execution planning on key architectural projects, defining information requirementsandexchangingmilestones, not as static documents.
• Ensure architectural information is structured from day one to support downstream uses (cost, schedule, asset data) without retrofitting.
• Collaborate directly with project architects and technical coordinators toanticipatedata needs and proactively resolve information bottlenecks.
• Develop andmaintainarchitectural templates, libraries, and standards that enforce information quality through embedded logic rather than manual enforcement.
• Govern the Common Data Environment (CDE) for architecture, ensuring itoperatesas a truesingle sourceof truth with clear validation, approval, and versioning logic.
• Champion standards through practical implementation and hands‑on support, not policing.

• 10+ years in Architecture / AEC with a proven track recordin digital delivery and information‑driven project execution. Proven experience operating as part of live architectural project teams, with strong understanding of design stages, coordination pressures, and technical delivery workflows.
• You understand that BIM is a tool; data integrity is the objective.
• Advanced Autodesk Revitexpertisefocused on data management (parameters, families, classification, model health
