Job description
Where BIM Meets Digital Construction
We are seeking a BIM/CAD Application Architect to lead the evolution of Hilti's 3D model ecosystem. You will architect and improve how BIM/CAD data flows across design tools, engineering applications, and digital construction platforms, removing manual rework, streamlining large project workflows, and ensuring reliable import/export pipelines.
This role blends deep expertise in Revit, IFC, and BIM/CAD standards with the mindset of a systems thinker and workflow architect. You will work hands on with models, templates, metadata structures, and translation behavior while partnering closely with software, product, and platform teams. Your mission: make BIM/CAD data predictable, governable, and seamlessly consumable across Hilti's digital solutions.
What You'll do
BIM/CAD Architecture & Standards Ownership
Required Qualifications
We're a big company with a family-owned feel. You will be given the opportunity to make big changes that will ripple throughout the industry while feeling right at home with the Hilti family.
In addition to a competitive base salary and bonus potential, we offer a robust benefits package including a generous paid time off policy that includes vacation, personal days, health & wellness, and 2 days per year to give back in your local community, paid family leave, educational reimbursement, 401(k) matching, medical/dental/vision coverage, and a variety of other benefits to fit the needs of our employees.
Why Hilti
Hilti is a global leader in construction innovation, with more than 34,000 team members across 120 countries. Guided by our purpose, Making Construction Better, we're driven to keep learning, growing, and finding new ways to make a lasting impact. Here, you'll be empowered to use your strengths, work with a global and inclusive team, and take on meaningful challenges. At Hilti, you'll have the chance to make your ideas, achievements, and growth real through purpose, passion, and teamwork.

What You'll do
BIM/CAD Architecture & Standards Ownership
- Define and govern standards for authoring tools and neutral formats (e.g. IFC, DWG/DXF).
- Establish rules for modeling practices, coordinate systems, naming conventions, levels, and family/parameter structures.
- Ensure external BIM/CAD content and internal engineering applications consume models consistently and reliably.
- Design and optimize robust import/export pipelines for 2D/3D assets used in engineering, layout, prefabrication, and project services.
- Diagnose and resolve issues related to template inconsistencies, metadata loss, large-file performance, and tool to tool translation quirks.
- Create documentation and guidelines for multi tool interoperability.
- Work hands on with sample projects, models, and datasets to validate behavior and eliminate manual rework in service workflows.
- Architect a Model Registry enabling controlled intake, semantic versioning, traceability, and structured metadata for 3D assets.
- Improve, or define where needed, model metadata (discipline, family type, parameters, lineage, usage context) to support scalable reuse across teams.
- Govern model ingestion from internal groups and external designers.
- Evaluate emerging AI/ML capabilities for BIM workflows (automated QC, clash prioritization, generative design hints, digital twin analytics).
- Understand how LLMs, computer vision, and MLops can enhance model checking, metadata extraction, and design to engineering workflows.
- Partner with data and software teams to integrate AI capabilities into future BIM to Field and digital construction solutions.
- Work closely with solution architects, software engineering leads, Digital Design teams and UX designers.
- Translate BIM/CAD domain requirements into technical specifications software teams can implement.
- Collaborate with developers building Revit based or model driven tooling; familiarity with the Revit API is strongly preferred.
- Act as the technical liaison for BIM/CAD workflows within our community.
- Define end to end workflows for model intake, validation, review, approval, and publishing.
- Produce standards, playbooks, training materials, and guidance for teams working with BIM/CAD data.
- Operate within Agile or SAFe aligned delivery processes to support coordinated roadmaps and increments.
Required Qualifications
- This position is not eligible for employer-sponsored work authorization or visa sponsorship (including initial, transfer, or extension), and candidates must be authorized to work in the United States at the time of application and remain authorized for the duration of employment without the need for sponsorship.
- Bachelor's or Master's in Architecture, Engineering, Construction Technology, or Computer Science.
- 6+ years of BIM leadership with deep hands on expertise in Revit/AutoCAD, including system level planning of BIM/CAD environments.
- Strong understanding of IFC, DWG/DXF, and interoperability challenges across BIM authoring tools.
- Experience guiding or integrating AI/ML capabilities into BIM workflows (automation, quality checks, generative suggestions, predictive insights).
- Working knowledge of LLMs, computer vision methods, MLops concepts, and prompt engineering as applied to model workflows.
- Familiarity with how software engineering teams operate; understanding of cloud ecosystems.
- Proven ability to communicate across engineering, product, UX, and data domains
- Experience in working with a global setup (early/late calls/cultural awareness).
- Open to travel internationally
- Experience with BIM integrations into engineering or analysis tools, or model driven workflows in downstream applications.
- Understanding of BIM to Field processes, CAD preparation, layout workflows, and model to construction handover.
- Exposure to SAFe or scaled Agile environments.
- Familiarity with different authoring tools
- Software Development experience
