e.construct
We are an engineering firm that specializes in providing elegant engineering solutions for complex challenges.
e.construct is a fast-growing firm with 7 offices around the world. At our core, we question how the very nature of how to evolve the structures that we inhabit to increase their performance and value.
we design structures such as bridges, high-rise design, precast concrete engineering and post-tensioning design. The firm's core work is structural engineering; however,
e.construct is increasingly holistic at its approach to buildings and it has divisions in MEP, Geotechnical and emerging construction technology such as 3D printing of concrete, technology and 3D laser scanning.
We are a tech startup that is being incubated in the technology lab of
e.construct and we employ technology to empower and eventually transform engineering.
VAES’s mission is to reduce the amount of raw materials we design in our buildings and bridges by using optimization algorithms and machine learning.
VAES consists of a team of software developers, civil engineers, machine learning experts, architects and graphic designers that builds tools that engineers can use to design and manufacture the next generation of cities.
We are seeking a highly motivated and talented Junior Computational BIM Engineer to join our team.
As Computational BIM Engineer, they will play a key role in leveraging Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies and computational design methodologies to enhance our architectural and construction projects.
In this role, they will play a vital part in the development of cutting-edge software tools that optimize structural systems and achieve the best value engineering.
This is an exciting opportunity for an individual who is passionate about the intersection of technology, design, and construction.
Responsibilities:
- Proficiency in industry-standard BIM software (e.g., Revit, Rhino) and parametric design tools (e.g., Grasshopper, Dynamo, etc)
- Collaborate with the design and project teams to develop BIM models using industry-standard software (e.g., Revit, Rhino, Dynamo).
- Programming skills in languages such as (C#) are highly desirable.
- Assist in the creation and management of BIM libraries, templates, and standards.
- Utilize computational design tools and scripting languages (e.g., Grasshopper, Python) to automate tasks, optimize design processes, and generate geometric forms.
- Assist in the coordination of interdisciplinary BIM models and resolve clashes or conflicts that arise during the design and construction phases.
- Collaborate with external consultants, contractors, and stakeholders to ensure the effective exchange of BIM information and coordination.
- Support the implementation of BIM-related workflows, standards, and best practices across various projects.
- Conduct research and stay up to date with the latest advancements in BIM technology, computational design, and parametric modeling techniques.
- Contribute to the development and delivery of BIM training programs for internal staff.
- Participate in the continuous improvement of BIM processes and workflows, identifying areas for enhancement and proposing innovative solutions.
