BIM Software Developer

Job description

Responsibilities

• Extract Revit and IFC model data—properties, parameters, type/instance data, and relationships—using Autodesk Platform Services APIs

• Transform extracted model data into structured, analysis-ready formats such as Parquet, JSON, or CSV

• Process and manage derived geometry data (SVF/SVF2, OBJ, STL, IFC) for downstream analysis and visualization

• Build and maintain geometry data checks, including proximity/clash detection, bounding-box and volume validation, missing-element detection, and parameter completeness

• Run IFC quality checks to validate schema conformance, property-set completeness, and geometry integrity

• Develop and operate robust data ingestion pipelines, handling asynchronous translation jobs, webhooks, retries, and large/heavy models

• Map BIM data semantics onto the platform’s structured data model and identify API coverage gaps

• Collaborate with data, engineering, and AEC domain teams to ensure extracted data accurately reflects model intent

Required Skills

• Strong backend/data engineering skills in Python

• Experience with Autodesk Platform Services (APS) APIs (Model Derivative, Data Management)

• Proficiency in extracting and transforming BIM data from Revit and IFC models

• Familiarity with IFC schema, Revit property/parameter structures, and BIM data semantics

• Ability to handle and process geometry data (meshes, transforms, spatial queries)

• Experience with data formats such as JSON, Parquet, and CSV

• Knowledge of analytical/columnar data querying

• Experience with asynchronous pipelines, webhooks, and cloud-based data processing

• Familiarity with tools like trimesh, shapely, IfcOpenShell, or xBIM

• Git proficiency for version control
