📋 Description

• Work through ambiguity to determine the right level of automation for a given context, including when to prototype, when to harden, and when not to automate. • Design, build, and support automation solutions that improve design and delivery outcomes, using a mix of visual programming (Dynamo/Grasshopper), parametric workflows, and traditional software development. • Work primarily in Autodesk-based environments (Revit, Civil 3D, Dynamo), while staying flexible and ready to shift to other platforms and tools when business needs and opportunities arise. • Use AI-assisted development as a normal part of the workflow to accelerate exploration and implementation, while remaining accountable for the quality, reliability, and maintainability of the final solution. • Partner with internal project teams, discipline leads, and software teams to gather requirements, translate pain points into clear problem statements, and deliver solutions that can be supported over time. • Evaluate emerging tools and approaches, and help the team make grounded decisions about where new technology can deliver real value. • Build relationships with communities of practice and cross-disciplinary groups to identify recurring needs, share lessons learned, and surface high-value opportunities. • Contribute to scalable adoption by creating practical guidance, documentation, and examples that help others apply automation effectively in their own work.

🎯 Requirements

• Experienced developing automation solutions using visual programming, scripting, and software development, and comfortable applying those skills across different platforms and tools as needed. • Familiar with architecture or engineering project environments, with an understanding of project lifecycles, constraints, and tradeoffs that comes from working closely with delivery teams. • Confident working primarily in Autodesk-based environments, with working knowledge of Python and C#, and experience with Autodesk add-in development or related APIs considered an asset. • Comfortable using AI-assisted development as a normal part of your workflow, while maintaining accountability for solution quality, reliability, and maintainability. • Able to break down complex workflows, identify where automation creates meaningful value, and make sound judgments about where to focus effort. • Communicates technical concepts clearly and adapts level of detail to suit both technical and non-technical audiences. • Works well as part of a collaborative team, shares knowledge openly, and builds trust across disciplines. • Curious and proactive about emerging tools and practices, and willing to constructively challenge assumptions when there's a better way to approach something. • Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience working in architecture or engineering project environments. • A minimum of 4 years of related experience in design automation, computational design, or software‑enabled workflows, or an equivalent combination of education and experience sufficient to successfully perform the role. • A Master’s degree in a related field is considered an asset but is not required.
