AI Point Cloud Segmentation Engineer

Hannah Cohen

Full-time · Job · Berlin

About the role

LiDAR scanners capture buildings, construction sites, and infrastructure as dense point clouds — billions of 3D points that represent every surface, pipe, beam, and wire. Converting these raw scans into labeled BIM models takes skilled technicians 40 hours per scan. Our segmentation system automates the classification: identifying walls, floors, structural elements, MEP components, and furniture from the point cloud alone. The challenge is scale and diversity. A scan of a hospital wing contains 500 million points with 200+ object categories. A construction site scan has occluded surfaces, temporary structures, and objects that don't exist in any training dataset. You'll build segmentation models that handle this diversity while maintaining the precision that architects and engineers require — a misclassified structural beam isn't just an error; it's a safety risk. The 3D vision team is five engineers. You'll be the senior engineer who drives the segmentation architecture, designs the evaluation methodology, and ensures our models generalize across building types, scanner hardware, and scan conditions.

Responsibilities

  • Design point cloud segmentation architectures for architectural and infrastructure scans
  • Handle 500M+ point clouds with 200+ object categories
  • Build evaluation frameworks measuring segmentation precision for BIM applications
  • Improve generalization across building types, scanners, and scan conditions
  • Optimize inference for large-scale point clouds within practical time budgets
  • Set technical direction for 3D segmentation research and production

Requirements

  • 5+ years in 3D computer vision with point cloud experience
  • Experience with point cloud segmentation architectures: PointNet++, MinkowskiNet, or similar
  • Strong PyTorch skills for 3D model development
  • Understanding of AEC domain requirements and BIM concepts
  • Track record of shipping 3D vision systems to production

Benefits

  • Fully remote across EU time zones
  • 30 days PTO
  • €3,000 home office budget
  • Annual conference attendance
  • Work at the intersection of 3D vision and construction technology
