As a result of our continued success and growth in the UK, we’re looking for a full-time BIM Developer to join our team working on Nuclear New Build projects, specifically focusing on Nuclear Island buildings of Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C, and similar projects. You will enjoy reinforcing your technical skills when working on the most complex buildings of a Nuclear Power Plant, helping us evolve our internal suite of custom-developed BIM tools. These tools are used day-to-day by a team of 15–25 people working in 3D modelling, checking and data delivery. Our sole developer, you’ll work closely with the BIM Manager to understand user feedback, define priorities, and implement enhancements and fixes to keep the toolset performing at a high level across multiple projects.

As a BIM Developer, you will play a key role in maintaining and improving tools that support our BIM processes across major infrastructure projects, ensuring high-quality outputs and efficient digital workflows.

Key Responsibilities:

Tool Development and Enhancement

• Take ownership of an existing internal suite of BIM-related tools and plug-ins.
• Analyse, maintain, and expand these tools in response to new project requirements and team feedback.
• Ensure that tool updates are robust, well-documented, and backward-compatible with existing workflows.

Collaboration and Communication

• Work directly with the BIM Manager to clarify requirements, assess development feasibility, and prioritise enhancements.
• Respond to tool users’ feedback and proactively propose improvements to streamline their workflows.
• Participate in internal meetings and tool reviews to ensure that development aligns with team needs and project priorities.

Code Quality and Version Control

• Utilise GitLab for code version control and validation document management.
• Maintain clear documentation of tool revisions, user guides, and testing notes in English.
• Ensure tools are deployed in a controlled, traceable, and validated manner

API Integration and BIM Environment Awareness

• Adapt tools to interface with commercial BIM software platforms (e.g. Tekla Structures, Revit, Navisworks) using available APIs.
• Support integration of tools with 3D modelling environments and support efforts to streamline BIM checks, data validation, and digital QA/QC.

Essential

• Hands-on experience as a software developer, preferably in an engineering or construction context.
• Thorough knowledge and experience with C#.
• Experience working with Visual Studio or similar IDEs suited for C# development.
• Proven ability to take on, understand and maintain legacy codebases.
• Experience working in a version-controlled environment (GitLab, GitHub, etc.).
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple concurrent development tasks effectively.
• Clear English writing skills for documentation, version notes, and validation records.
• Willingness to learn from users and apply practical problem-solving approaches.
• Must hold the right to work in the UK

Desirable

• Knowledge of BIM environments and workflows (e.g. model checking, data management, clash detection).
• Experience working with commercial BIM platforms and their APIs (e.g. Tekla Structures, Autodesk Revit, Navisworks).
• Knowledge of Tekla’s API would be highly advantageous.
• Additional experience in other languages such as SQL, VBA, or Python is advantageous.
• Enthusiastic and proactive mindset, with a desire to improve BIM workflows and contribute to a high-performing team.

Note: Given the nature of the work, role holders may be required to undergo Basic Security Clearance (BPSS).
