About
Innovative BIM & CAD Automation Engineer with 10+ years of experience developing production-ready automation tools for Revit, AutoCAD, SketchUp, Rhino, and ArcGIS. I help architecture and engineering teams eliminate repetitive work, automate quantity take- offs, improve model quality, and connect BIM data with GIS and cloud platforms through reliable, scalable workflows.
With a strong background in C#, Python, and .NET, combined with deep AEC domain knowledge, I design custom plugins and automation systems that integrate seamlessly into real project workflows—supporting estimating, coordination, data accuracy, and faster delivery.
Core Capabilities
● Revit API development (C#, Python) – custom plugins, quantity takeoff automation, batch tools, model validation
● Dynamo & Python automation for modeling, documentation, data extraction, and estimating workflows
● AutoCAD automation ▒▒▒▒▒▒ AutoLISP)
● Autodesk APS (Forge), ACC / BIM 360 integrations
● SketchUp automation & plugin development (Ruby, model data extraction, metadata workflows)
● Rhino plugin & automation development (Grasshopper, Python/C#)
● GIS integration (ArcGIS automation, spatial data workflows, GeoJSON)
● AI-assisted BIM workflows (model validation, classification, data extraction, rule-based checks)
● Model data extraction pipelines (hierarchy, geometry, metadata → JSON → external systems)
● Point cloud to BIM workflows (Python, Open3D, segmentation, Revit integration)
Let’s collaborate to automate the BIM processes and boost productivity.
