Working Student: LCA & Sustainability in BIM (m/f/d)

neoBIM is a well-funded, fast-growing startup revolutionizing the Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) industry. We build AI-powered Building Information Modeling (BIM) software that makes design smarter, faster, and more sustainable. Our platform covers the full building lifecycle — from early-stage design to handover and digital twin operation.

Sustainability and life cycle thinking are at the core of what we do. We are building the next generation of integrated LCA workflows directly inside BIM — and we need passionate people to help us get there. Join us and be part of something that matters.

Tasks

• Support and run Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) for buildings, primarily for the German building and construction industry
• Turn messy real-world data (materials, energy, emissions) into clear sustainability insights
• Build scrappy, smart solutions to automate LCA workflows using AI and modern tools
• Use LLMs and AI agents to speed up analysis, reporting, and internal processes
• Ship quick prototypes using a vibe coding mindset — iterate fast, break things, and improve
• Spot opportunities, challenge assumptions, and bring your own ideas to the table
• Work closely with a small, driven team and have a real impact from day one
• Communicate results clearly — whether it’s a quick dashboard or a sharp presentation

Requirements

• A master’s degree (or currently pursuing one) related to sustainable development of the built environment
• Solid understanding of architectural design and LCA, and their impact on each other
• Hands-on experience with AI / LLMs (prompting, APIs, and automations)
• You can code (ideally Python) and like using it to solve real problems; without programming acumen, we cannot build anything
• Comfortable with vibe coding — fast prototyping, AI-assisted development, figuring things out as you go
• You’re independent: you don’t wait for instructions, you create direction
• You think in systems, not tasks — and care about building scalable solutions
• Bonus: experience with LCA tools (One Click LCA, GaBi, ecoinvent) or LCA of buildings

Benefits

• Direct impact: your work shapes real product features used by architecture firms worldwide

• Steep learning curve — work alongside experienced engineers, sustainability experts, and product designers

• Flexible hours around your university schedule (up to 20 hrs/week)

• Fully remote — work from wherever you study and live

• Flat hierarchies and open culture — your ideas are heard and valued from day one

• Opportunity to grow with us — outstanding students may be offered a permanent position after graduation

• Fair compensation and a team that genuinely enjoys working together
