Principal Engineer

24WD83239

Intro 

We are searching for a Software Engineer to join us in developing the next-generation, AI-powered architecture design product. Our teams work on everything from complex 3D drawing on the web to building machine-learning-based real-time analyses. Your contributions will have a direct impact on shaping our offering. It will enable our users to discover smart, sustainable solutions and gain valuable insights in their projects.  

About us 

We are on a mission to help design better cities. According to the United Nations, more than 90% of future population growth will happen in cities. The construction industry is responsible for 40% of global CO2 emissions. To respond to this trend and combat climate change, the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry needs to change the way they work.

We are building the new generation of cloud-based software tools that will drive this change in AEC. We started our journey as Spacemaker, a Norway-based startup, and became part of Autodesk in 2020.

Our tools help architects, urban planners, and real estate developers find the smartest and most sustainable ways to unlock the potential of their projects. We focus on enabling outcome-based design through assessing living quality (sun, daylight potential, noise, et al), environmental impact (embodied and operational carbon), and profitability of our users' projects.
