This is a high-impact, solo-developer role with room to grow. It is Ideal for someone who loves solving problems, enjoys autonomy, and wants to collaborate with engineers, project managers, and Building Information Modeling (BIM) specialists to shape meaningful, practical solutions.

You do not need a background in structural engineering. If you happen to have interest or exposure to engineering concepts, that’s a plus, but curiosity and problem-solving are the traits that matter most.

What You’ll Do

• Develop new internal applications and tools to support engineering workflows
• Enhance and maintain existing internal software solutions
• Build integrations between software platforms using APIs (including .NET integrations already in place)
• Partner with engineers, project managers, and BIM managers to identify process bottlenecks and create automated or software-based solutions
• Create small client-facing web tools and interactive features
• Explore opportunities to implement AI-assisted tools and workflow enhancements
• Maintain clean, well-documented code and version control practices
• Provide guidance on tech stack choices based on what best serves future development

What We’re Looking For

Required Qualifications

• 3–5+ years of experience in software development
• Proficiency in a modern programming language (C#, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or similar)
• Experience with API development and integration
• Familiarity with database design and use (SQL or NoSQL)
• Ability to work independently, take ownership, and deliver solutions from concept to deployment
• Strong problem-solving skills and willingness to learn new domains

Preferred (Nice-to-Have) Qualifications

• Experience with .NET and .NET API integrations
• Experience building internal business tools or dashboard-style platforms
• Knowledge of or interest in engineering, BIM, or CAD/CAE workflows
• Experience integrating with software such as Revit, Tekla, RISA, or similar platforms
• Background with automation, scripting, or workflow optimization
• Familiarity with AI/ML tools or API-based AI integration

Who You’ll Work With

• Reports to: Engineering Technical Manager
• Collaborates closely with:
• Structural Engineers
• Project Managers
• BIM Managers
• Occasionally client-facing teams for web tool integration

Who Thrives in This Role

This role is perfect for someone who:

• Takes satisfaction in seeing teammates use and benefit from the tools they create
• Likes variety, new challenges, and autonomy
• Communicates well with non-developers
• Wants to help shape and grow an emerging internal software ecosystem
• Has the curiosity to learn how engineering software fits together — even if you’ve never touched Revit or Tekla before
