The posting

**We are open to supporting 100% remote work anywhere within the U.S.**

ICF is seeking a skilled Digital Twin Lead for our work across government, commercial, and non-profit sectors to guide the technical strategy, development, and integration of digital twin solutions. This role combines technical leadership with hands-on delivery, helping clients translate operational, planning, and asset-management needs into practical solutions that connect BIM, GIS, asset information, and other enterprise systems.

The ideal candidate will have real-world experience using AutoCAD, BIM modeling software, GIS, coding, and technology applications to develop and integrate digital twin solutions. They will help establish technical direction, identify opportunities for innovation, and evaluate how artificial intelligence and other emerging techniques can improve future digital twin capabilities. Additionally, the ideal candidate should be detail-oriented, analytical, and possess strong communication skills.

Travel: Must be able to travel up to 10% to meet with clients and stakeholders as needed for project and program support.

What you will be doing:

  • Work with clients and project leadership to define digital twin objectives, prioritize use cases, and develop implementation roadmaps that account for data readiness, integration needs, cost, and long-term maintenance.
  • Lead technical delivery of digital twin solutions by coordinating the management and integration of BIM models, GIS, and asset data, establishing quality standards, and reviewing deliverables for accuracy, completeness, and alignment with client requirements.
  • Define technical approaches for connecting digital models with enterprise GIS, databases, asset-management systems, and operational data sources, addressing interoperability, scalability, and information maintenance.
  • Support, develop, update, and review AutoCAD drawings and BIM models using Revit, ensuring model geometry, asset attributes, and required levels of development and information are accurate and complete for their intended use.
  • Use coding, scripts, APIs, and automation to process models, transform and validate data, and connect BIM/CAD models with GIS, databases, asset information, and technology applications.
  • Evaluate and pilot innovative techniques, including AI and machine learning, to improve model development, data integration, quality review, and predictive analysis. Assess their accuracy, data requirements, security, cost, and practical value, and recommend where they should be incorporated into future digital twin development.
  • Translate client needs into digital twin technical requirements; guide technology selection and integration decisions; configure, test, and troubleshoot technology applications and resolve interoperability and data-quality issues.
  • Provide subject matter expertise, coordinate assigned technical work, review deliverables, and document workflows, methods, quality criteria, and technical decisions. Contribute reusable methods and technical approaches to proposals and new digital twin opportunities.
  • Support internal and external training and capacity building efforts, including mentoring technical staff, demonstrating digital twin applications, and helping develop and deliver training materials. Explain technical options and tradeoffs to help clients make informed decisions.

What you must have:

  • Bachelors Degree and 5+ years of relevant professional experience.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in AutoCAD and hands-on BIM modeling expertise, including Revit.
  • Coding and scripting experience, including Python, and experience developing automated workflows and API-based data or application integrations.
  • Experience developing or integrating digital twin solutions or BIM/GIS/asset-data environments, including configuring, testing, and troubleshooting technology applications.
  • Experience translating client or operational needs into technical requirements, evaluating technology options, and guiding implementation decisions.
  • Experience independently resolving complex technical problems, reviewing technical deliverables, and conducting model and data quality assurance.
  • Experience providing technical guidance, coordinating assigned work, and communicating technical requirements and recommendations to clients and multidisciplinary teams.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust.
  • Must be a US Citizen and Permanent Resident per federal contract requirements.

What we’d like you to have:

  • Master’s or PhD in a relevant technical discipline
  • Fluency in both English and Spanish is highly preferred.
  • Experience developing digital twin strategies, implementation of roadmaps, or pilot projects that demonstrate value and inform broader adoption.
  • Ability to work independently while effectively communicating technical and business requirements to both technical and non-technical users.
  • Experience with LiDAR, point-cloud processing, scan-to-BIM, and BIM-to-GIS integration, including ArcGIS and IFC/COBie interoperability.
  • Experience with Dynamo, Revit API, Safe FME, SQL, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Autodesk Tandem, or Bentley iTwin.
  • Experience with cloud-hosted solutions, sensor-data or asset-management integration, and infrastructure, resilience, or government projects.
  • Provide technical leadership, coordinate staff assignments, and mentor team members to support program delivery, with supervisory responsibilities as assigned. ​

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
