Develop multimodal data pipelines that convert BIM, Autodesk, geospatial, document, and operational data into structured, queryable knowledge. Deliver AI workflows supporting design, construction, commissioning, building operations, sustainment, and reinvestment use cases. Move priority solutions from prototype through pilot and production with appropriate governance, documentation, evaluation, observability, and operational readiness. Establish reusable engineering patterns that enable successful pilots to scale into enterprise platform capabilities.

Building blocks for success Required: 6+ years of experience in software engineering, platform engineering, data engineering, applied AI, automation, technology consulting, or a related technical delivery role. Experience designing, building, deploying, or maintaining AI-assisted workflows, large language model applications, or agentic systems for business use cases.

Experience leading discovery, workflow mapping, technical scoping, implementation, rollout, and post-launch iteration with users or domain teams. Ability to apply context engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, semantic layers, tool or function calling, structured outputs, orchestration, evaluation, and human-in-the-loop design. Programming or scripting capability in Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, or a comparable language. Experience integrating APIs, SaaS platforms, data sources, workflow tools, and enterprise systems. Ability to communicate technical decisions, risks, and outcomes clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders. Preferred: Experience with agent frameworks or orchestration patterns such as OpenAI Agents SDK, LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, MCP, AutoGen, CrewAI, n8n, or comparable platforms. Experience with Autodesk construction and building platforms, BIM, geospatial systems, reality capture, simulation platforms, or digital twins. Experience with AWS IoT, AWS Lambda, event-driven or serverless architectures, streaming telemetry, rules engines, or cloud-native operational data platforms. Experience with building lifecycle systems, operational technology, building management systems, asset management, estimating, bid management, project controls, or field support. Experience with data platform patterns such as knowledge graphs, entity resolution, ontologies, vector databases, Snowflake, data lakes, semantic layers, or BI and reporting.
