About the Role

Join an early-stage AI and construction technology team building a new BIM authoring tool designed for AI agents. You will help shape its geometry and data foundations, with the opportunity to take on broader technical leadership as the team grows.

What You'll Do

• Build the geometry and data core of a new BIM authoring tool.

• Develop AI agents that can plan and edit real building models.

• Startup or founder experience, and fluency in English.

• Experience leading engineers or making architecture decisions is valuable.

• AEC or BIM experience, including IFC, Revit API, or Rhino/Grasshopper, is valuable, as is experience with Python, PyTorch, TypeScript, three.js, or generative and multimodal models for 3D or visual data.
