Job description

SWAPP builds Frank, an agentic AI architect that reads and writes the live BIM model inside Autodesk Revit and Graphisoft ArchiCAD, executing real documentation, modeling, and QA work for many of the world’s leading architecture firms. We pair deep architectural domain knowledge with optimization, computational geometry, and modern AI to put genuine automation on the critical path of production. Our team brings together architects, engineers, AI researchers, and data scientists across Tel Aviv and the US.

The role

The Forward Deployed Architect is our person on the inside. You do not advise from a distance and you do not build in a vacuum. You plant yourself within a customer’s office and stay until Frank is delivering on their real projects. Working out of our Texas customers’ studios, you will learn each team’s workflow first hand, collect the requests and rough edges as they surface day to day, make sure people are happy with what Frank is doing, and feed everything you learn back into the product. It is a role for an architect who likes solving problems in the room and shaping what gets built next.

What you’ll do

• Sit with your Texas firms week to week, working from their offices and becoming part of how the studio runs.
• Make Frank stick on live work: onboard teams, unblock issues quickly, and grow usage across projects and offices.
• Translate messy, real-world documentation needs into precise direction for our architects and engineers.
• Configure Frank to each firm’s standards and conventions, and prove the value on a real project rather than a demo.
• Sit in on product and feature definition, bringing the voice of the firm into what SWAPP builds and ships.

You are

• A mid-level architect in active practice, with about 5 to 7 years on production teams.
• Strong in Revit. This is non-negotiable: CD sets, coordination, and BIM standards are second nature to you.
• A natural relationship builder who wins over principals, BIM managers, and drafters by being useful, not by selling.
• Technically curious, energized by product work, and calm when the problem is not yet fully defined.
• Based in Texas and glad to spend most of your time on customer sites. Strong candidates elsewhere in the US are welcome too.

Bonus

• Hands-on BIM management: template, family, and standards ownership.
• Scripting or automation chops (Dynamo, Python, or the Revit API).
• Familiarity with ADA and accessibility requirements.

Working at SWAPP

• Work directly with a senior, product-driven team and see your work reach leading firms fast.
• Real ownership and impact from day one, on a product that sits on the critical path of real projects.
• We value curiosity, candor, and a Be-Nice attitude: genuine care for your teammates and our customers.
