Role Overview
Apply civil and structural engineering expertise to help train and evaluate next-generation AI systems through precise, real-world technical input. This remote contract role focuses on BIM-based design documentation, model quality, interoperability, and engineering judgment. Prior AI experience is not required.
Key Responsibilities
- Create, review, and refine detailed civil and structural drawing sets, including plans, elevations, sections, and schedules, using Revit, ArchiCAD, or similar BIM tools.
- Author and manage BIM models for complex or multi-building projects, ensuring accuracy and alignment with applicable code families, including Eurocode, ACI, ASCE, IS, and BS.
- Export and validate IFC 2x3 or IFC4 files, confirming geometry, classification, and mapping integrity for coordination and data interoperability.
- Document and communicate technical decisions and design rationale clearly in writing and conversation.
- Evaluate project requirements, identify constructability concerns, and recommend improvements based on professional experience.
- Assess BIM tools and data workflows for functionality and usability.
- Provide high-quality domain input that informs AI-powered engineering training and evaluation.
Qualifications
- Bachelor''s degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or Architecture.
- A master''s degree is preferred.
- At least 5 years of hands-on post-degree experience producing complete drawing sets and leading model development, beyond markups or reviews.
- At least 3 years of daily, expert-level BIM authoring experience in Revit, ArchiCAD, or BlenderBIM, including IFC export and validation.
- Experience coordinating across disciplines and delivering complex or multi-building solutions.
- Ability to reference and apply Eurocode, ACI, ASCE, IS, or BS standards in design work.
- Fluent written and spoken English, with strong technical communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications
- Professional licensure, such as PE, CEng, or Chartered status.
- Experience with openBIM scripting, including ifcopenshell or Python.
- Knowledge of clash detection or model-checking tools, such as Navisworks or Solibri.
- Experience with engineering analysis tools, including ETABS, SAP2000, Robot, or Tekla.
- Experience creating custom BIM families or contributing data annotation for AI projects.
Work Terms
- Remote contract engagement.
- Compensation$30 to $50 per hour.
