Computational Designer - Build Technologies (New York, NY)
The role
At Build, the company is the product. Every output, every workflow, every client deliverable is an expression of what we believe AI and expert services can become when you remove the boundary between them. This role sits at the centre of that, applied to design.
We are looking for a computational designer who has likely trained at one of the world’s leading architecture or engineering firms, or built their own practice with computational geometry at its core. Someone who looks at the built environment and sees systems, not drawings. Someone who wants to build the AI factory for design: a stack of workflows, tools and models that makes the full range of design work faster, smarter and compounding across every asset class.
The scope runs from critical infrastructure and data centres to industrial, office, urban and beyond. The ambition is to define what AI-native design means – not as a productivity improvement on existing practice, but as a genuinely new model for how design work gets done.

What you will do
Build the computational design stack that powers Build’s delivery across infrastructure, industrial, office and urban projects – from site selection and early massing through to technical due diligence and design automation.
Translate spatial and site-specific problems into fast, reproducible workflows that compound over time and work across asset classes.
Work directly with domain experts and engineers to identify the hardest design questions and build AI-driven systems that answer them.
