Senior Software Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to design and implement 3D model conversion and checking algorithms, and help guide the transition to a modular, component-based architecture.

Who are we

KUBUS has been supplying the architecture and construction industries with BIM (Building Information Modeling) software since 1992, from design software to tools for model checking, issue management and document management. With BIMcollab, our flagship product suite, we are the market leader in BIM quality control with model checking and issue management, stimulating BIM-based collaboration throughout the whole lifecycle of buildings or infrastructure. Our platform enables users to create and use a Digital Twin that becomes the single source of truth, from design and construction to management and maintenance. 

We empower users to create and maintain high-quality buildings that are circular, energy efficient, and offer a safe environment. We shape the construction industry by facilitating an integrated BIM process with fast, innovative, and user-friendly solutions that integrate with all popular BIM tools. Through high-quality, service-oriented support we let our users experience the power and joy of a smooth BIM process.

We are a firm believer in the circular economy and are an advocate of circular construction. Our software solutions contribute to the responsible use of our scarce resources. Enabling more sustainable decisions to be made from design to construction and then repurpose these materials during demolition. In our internal operations, we strive to be CO2 neutral. For example, the headquarters is virtually carbon-neutral and KUBUS offsets all CO2 emissions by planting new trees in cooperation with Trees For All, of which we are a forest partner. 

Our tech stack

• Backend: C++ (23), Clang, MSVC

• Frontend: C# WinForms, Objective-C, Cocoa

• Tools: Azure DevOps, Conan, Google test
  

About your team

As a member of the core application team, you will focus on 3D model conversion and 3D model checking, where the performance and accuracy of these algorithms plays a key role in distinguishing us from our competitors. To ensure optimal performance, we use C++. The team is currently transitioning from a full-stack desktop environment (Windows, Mac) to developing algorithms that can be deployed both on desktop and in the cloud (Azure, Windows, Linux). The team is multidisciplinary with a product owner, engineers, tester, and operates within an agile framework.
