About the Company

At Flow, we’re reimagining what it means to live, work, and connect. More than just a real estate company, Flow is a brand, a technology platform, and an operations ecosystem spanning condominiums, hotels, multifamily residences, and office spaces. We’re building a new kind of living experience: one that’s flexible, connected, and designed to create genuine community and real value for the people who call Flow home.

Our mission is oneness:  prioritizing our residents and their experiences, and fostering connection with ourselves, their neighbors, and the natural world. By putting people at the center of everything we do, we’re creating vibrant, human-centered communities where life, work, creativity, and play all come together in one place.

About the Role
We're looking for a modeler who builds tools as readily as they build models. This role is half production modeling, half agentic workflow development. You'll own Flow's catalog of BIM and CAD files across buildings, furniture, and interior layouts, and simultaneously build the software systems and AI workflows that allow that catalog to scale without scaling headcount.
Right now, our system model skews from physical reality. These gaps matter because decisions, work orders, and agent reasoning across the company depend on model correctness. You'll work closely with property onboarding teams and property managers to close that gap and keep models in sync as our portfolio grows.
This isn't a role for someone who has thought about why AI doesn't work for modeling. It's for someone who has tried it anyway, hit walls, tried ten more times, and figured something out. Dogged persistence with agents is the signal we're hiring on. The specific BIM/CAD tool matters less than demonstrated mastery of at least one and a genuine track record of pushing what's possible with AI.
We believe our team is better together. Every position at Flow has an onsite or in-office requirement.
