Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain computational design workflows for VDC teams using tools such as Dynamo, Grasshopper, Rhino.Inside.Revit, and Python.

  • Translate design models into production-ready digital assets suitable for CNC machining, roll forming, or other fabrication methods.

  • Collaborate with trade partners and internal teams to support the implementation of prefab products across drywall, MEP, structural systems, and modular components.

  • Automate and validate geometry conditioning, metadata structuring, and drawing extraction from design models.

  • Contribute to the creation and maintenance of reusable scripts, libraries, and digital products within DPR’s VDC and computational teams.
