Overview
AEC firms and infrastructure owner/operators increasingly demand seamless integration between GIS data and BIM models to improve all aspects of asset design, construction, and operation. The global demand for housing and the need for roads, energy, and water to support them requires innovative workflows that help owners, engineers, planners, and stakeholders collaborate. Esri is working in partnership with Autodesk and other firms to help our customers design, build, and operate the sustainable infrastructure of the future more rapidly, at lower cost, and in compliance with complex regulatory landscapes.
Providing this integration requires innovative software engineering to ensure reliable, secure, seamless, and scalable access to this information in ways that are user- and industry-focused while adapting to evolving global standards for BIM and GIS, such as IFC, 3D Tiles, and Esri i3s. In this role, you will be the crucial resource in the design and implementation of this integration. Join us in helping define the future of GIS-AEC integration in collaboration with the product owner, product engineers, and software engineering peers on a multi-disciplinary team.

- Integration between the ArcGIS geospatial cloud and cloud-based BIM systems such as Autodesk Docs, Autodesk Platform Services, Autodesk Forma, and other information systems
- Public and internal RESTful APIs to integrate the above platforms
- Typescript components and widgets compatible with ArcGIS Experience Builder
- Geoprocessing tools to automate the linking and data migration of BIM data to ArcGIS
- Communicate with industry developers on best practices for extending ArcGIS to the AEC and BIM industries
- Design real-time and batch data pipelines for synchronizing versioned BIM data with GIS
- Construct complex micro-service pipelines for large BIM datasets
Requirements
- 5+ years of software product development experience
- Demonstrated experience developing cloud infrastructure, backend services, and data pipelines

- Lead the design, architecture, and development of native Windows desktop applications using Windows App SDK, WinUI (or related UI frameworks), C#, XAML, and — when needed — C++.
- Define and enforce best-practices for Windows desktop development across the codebase: code architecture, performance, memory usage, responsive UI, cross-version compatibility (Windows 10/11+), and maintainability.
- Drive accessibility efforts: integrate and validate support for accessibility APIs (e.g. Microsoft UI Automation or other relevant Windows accessibility frameworks), ensure UI controls, focus management, keyboard navigation, screen-reader support, and usability for users with disabilities.
- Collaborate closely with product designers, UX researchers, QA, and other stakeholders to shape feature planning, UI/UX architecture, and long-term roadmap for the Windows platform.
- Take ownership of full lifecycle of features: conception → design → implementation → testing → release → maintenance. Ensure quality, reliability, and consistency across releases.
- Identify, diagnose, and resolve complex bugs, performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, rendering issues, or compatibility problems — and propose robust architectural or design solutions.
Required:
- 3+ in Windows desktop application development using Windows App SDK, WinUI (or similar), C#, XAML — and ideally additional experience with native Windows code (C++, Win32/WinRT/COM).
- Deep understanding of Windows application architecture, including interop between managed code (.NET) and native code.
- Proven track record of designing, building, and shipping production-quality desktop applications, with an emphasis on reliability, performance, scalability, and maintainability.
- Strong experience with accessibility APIs on Windows (e.g. Microsoft UI Automation or similar), and a dedication to building accessible and inclusive software.
- Excellent software engineering fundamentals: OOP, design patterns, data structures, algorithms, memory management, multi-threading or asynchronous programming (where relevant).
- Experience leading technical design, mentoring other engineers, conducting code reviews, and making architecture-level decisions.
- Strong communication skills; ability to articulate tradeoffs, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and drive consensus.
- A user-centric mindset: focus on building polished, intuitive, and accessible experiences for end users.
Preferred / Bonus:
- Experience with writing automated tests for UI — unit tests, integration tests, UI automation tests; familiarity with relevant testing frameworks.
- Experience with performance optimization for desktop apps (memory usage, startup time, rendering performance, high-DPI support, responsiveness under load).
- Experience with localization/globalization, right-to-left UI support, internationalization, accessibility for multiple regions.
- Familiarity with telemetry, analytics, crash reporting, logging, and error monitoring in desktop applications.
- Previous experience in shaping CI/CD workflows, release pipelines, and deployment strategies for desktop applications.
- Demonstrated ability to take ownership of feature areas or modules and drive them long-term, including maintenance, refactoring, and technical debt management.
What we offer
- A high-impact role: you will define architecture, shape the future of our Windows product, and directly influence what millions of users see and experience.
- A collaborative, flat-structure engineering culture — you are not just a coder, but a builder and a decision-maker.
- Opportunities to lead — mentor others, steer technical direction, and grow into broader technical leadership (e.g. Tech Lead, Architect).
- Flexibility, autonomy, and responsibility: you define how to solve problems, own features end-to-end, and contribute to long-term product vision.
- A purpose-driven mission: building software that’s reliable, accessible, and user-centered — making a real difference for people.
