Performance Design And Sustainability Analyst

Job Summary: The Performance Design & Sustainability Analyst will support ADAS IDEAS in developing performance-led, climate-responsive and buildable design solutions for lightweight architecture, tensile membrane structures, ETFE systems, fabric facades, skylights, canopies, covered walkways and semi-outdoor public environments. The role will combine environmental simulation, computational design, sustainability analysis, facade-performance studies, planning support and technical visualization. The objective is to help ADAS test design options early, improve user comfort, reduce material and energy demand, strengthen value-engineering proposals and communicate the technical benefit of ADAS lightweight systems to clients, architects and consultants. Key Responsibilities: Carry out solar radiation, shading, daylight, glare and lux-level studies for tropical and semi-outdoor environments, including covered walkways, atria, event spaces, stadium edges, public shelters and linkways. Assist in thermal comfort assessment for tropical and semi-outdoor environments, including covered walkways, atria, event spaces, stadium edges, public shelters and linkways. Prepare CFD-based studies for natural ventilation, wind comfort, airflow paths, heat build-up, stack effect and solar-induced ventilation strategies. Assess pedestrian-level wind performance and building porosity where ADAS proposals affect public spaces, covered routes or urban wind movement. Support wind-driven rain, rain protection and shelter-effectiveness studies to evaluate user comfort and the behavior of rain interacting with roof or facade geometry. Compare design options and clearly explain the impact of geometry, orientation, opening ratio, facade porosity, material transparency and roof profile on environmental performance. 3D Modeling & Design – Develop detailed, accurate 3D models using Rhino 3D for architecture steel, ETFE and PTFE. Shop Drawings & Fabrication Drawings – Prepare precise shop drawings, fabrication detailing, and technical documentation for construction. Proposal & Client Presentation Preparation – Develop presentations, including 3D visualizations, diagrams, exploded views, renderings, to communicate design concepts to clients. Scripting & Automation – Write custom scripts in Python or C# for Grasshopper/Rhino to automate modeling, streamline workflows, and enhance parametric capabilities. Parametric & Computational Design – Utilize Grasshopper for advanced parametric design and algorithmic modeling solutions. Shop Drawings & Fabrication Drawings – Prepare precise shop drawings, fabrication detailing, and technical documentation for construction, CNC machining, laser cutting, and 3D printing. Rendering & Visualization – Create visualizations using D5 render to communicate design intent. Digital Fabrication Integration – Optimize models CNC milling, robotic fabrication, and modular manufacturing. Design Optimization – Automate and enhance workflows to improve efficiency, material utilization, and production feasibility. Collaboration – Work closely with architects, engineers, fabricators, and clients to develop functional, manufacturable designs. Technical Documentation & File Management – Maintain structured libraries of 3D models, scripts, shop drawings, and BOMs (Bill of Materials).
