Senior Software Engineer (Computational Geometry & BIM)

Join ICON, a pioneering company in construction technology. As a Senior Software Engineer II, you will lead the design and implementation of new features and products for our BuildOS design platform, develop cutting-edge geometric algorithms, and create robust software integrations with third-party CAD and CAM software. You will work closely with architects, structural engineers, and building scientists to convert architectural plans into efficient path-planning algorithms. This role requires a deep understanding of computational geometry, BIM, and a passion for solving complex problems.

• Lead the design and implementation of new features and products to support the BuildOS design platform, including architecting and developing cutting-edge geometric algorithms.
• Build and maintain internal tools to help visualize, instrument, and debug the 3D printing process, and partner with Architects, Structural Engineers, and Building Scientists to convert architectural plans.
• Drive technical standards and best practices for computational geometry systems, and lead exploration and prototyping of AI-driven design approaches for generative design.
• 8+ years of professional experience as a software engineer with demonstrated technical leadership
• Track record of architecting complex systems and making sound technical decisions
• Excellent ability to communicate clearly and succinctly both in-person and via written asynchronous channels
• A willingness to accept failure, learn and try again, and an open mind to try solutions that may seem impossible at first
• BS in Computer Science or equivalent experience
• Advanced degree in Computer Science
• Strong experience building platforms, micro-services, and APIs at scale
• Experience mentoring other engineers and contributing to team growth
• A passion for learning new disciplines and gaining a deep understanding of how other professionals do their work
• Proven ability to work closely with a wide variety of stakeholders to rapidly analyze and reduce large requirements into small deliverables
• Strong Node.js and TypeScript experience, with a functional programming approach
• Deep mathematical background in geometry, linear algebra, numerical analysis and advanced 3D mathematics
• Strong intuition for physical systems and principles of stability
• Extensive experience with tools and services that leverage three-dimensional trigonometry to calculate and analyze shapes and tool paths
• Hands-on experience with BIM platforms (Revit, Rhino, Grasshopper) and their APIs for automation
• Experience in computational design, algorithmic architecture, or design automation
• Familiarity with AI/ML frameworks and applications in design, generative modeling, or optimization problems
• Experience with parametric modeling frameworks and computational design tools
• React, Redux, and RxJs experience
• Proven experience interfacing with CAD and CAM software APIs
• Strong interest in the principles of parametric architecture
• PostgreSQL, GraphQL experience
• Modern CI/CD workflows: GitHub, Jenkins, Travis, etc
• Experience with geometric kernel libraries (CGAL, Open CASCADE, etc.)
