Summary
Designs and builds a web-based 3D model viewer for BIM/IFC files, from architecture through implementation — including navigation features like object selection and section cuts, and performance tuning for large models. Core stack is JavaScript/TypeScript with WebGL/3D frameworks, plus backend JS runtimes and collaboration on geometry-processing APIs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Designing and developing the web-based 3D model viewer, from architecture through to implementation
- Exploring and evaluating relevant open-source libraries and tools (e.g. IFC parsers, WebGL frameworks)
- Implementing model navigation features (e.g. object selection, section cuts, and property inspection, etc.)
- Collaborating with backend engineers on server-side geometry processing and data APIs
- Optimizing viewer performance when dealing with large, complex files
- Iterating on the viewer based on feedback from end users
What we are looking for:
- Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript and backend JS runtimes (e.g. Node.js/Deno)
- Good understanding of 3D graphics and/or computational geometry concepts
- Strong problem solving skills and a desire to learn
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
Familiarity with any of the following would be a plus:
- Web development (Frontend/Backend/Full-stack)
- WebGL or related 3D frameworks (e.g. Babylon.js)
- Python and libraries like IfcOpenShell
- Building Information Modeling (BIM) concepts
- Geospatial data and information
- Agentic development workflows (e.g. Claude Code)
- WebAssembly
