Software Engineer

OverviewWe’re working with a client building a platform at the intersection of AI and digital construction, focused on turning complex building models into structured, intelligent systems. They are looking for a hands-on software engineer to work directly with BIM models (Revit / IFC) — extracting, processing, and integrating 3D building data into production-grade platforms. This is not a BIM coordination or modelling role, and not a pure AI research position. It is a core engineering role focused on building systems around IFC and BIM data.What you’ll be doingWriting production-grade Python code to process and analyse IFC and Revit datasetsBuilding pipelines for geometric and spatial analysis of 3D modelsDeveloping APIs and backend services that integrate BIM data into wider systemsWorking with structured building data across architecture, structural, and MEP domainsContributing to systems that connect BIM data into AI-driven workflowsCollaborating with engineering teams to deliver features into production environmentsOpportunity to work on a high-impact AI + construction platformExposure to a highl y niche and in-demand problem space (BIM + AI)Work on systems that move BIM from static models to intelligent, queryable data platformsCollaborative, engineering-led environment with real-world applicationBased in Abu Dhabi with on-site collaborationMust have (non-negotiable)Strong Python software engineering experienceDirect, hands-on experience working with: IFC data, or BIM datasets / Revit modelsExperience handling 3D geometry or spatial dataProven ability to build production-grade systems (not just scripts or academic work)Important qualifierWe are prioritising candidates who have worked on IFC or BIM data at code level — not just through toolsNice to haveExperience with libraries such as: ifcopenshell, trimesh, open3d, pythonoccExposure to tools/platforms like: Speckle, BlenderExperience integrating engineering data into AI / LLM workflowsBackground in AEC / construction technology productsArabic language skillsTech environmentPython (core language)BIM / IFC ecosystems3D geometry and spatial processing librariesGitLab CI/CD pipelines#J-18808-Ljbffr
