Cyril Waechter is a Geneva-based HVAC engineer, BIM manager and founder with over a decade of experience designing energy-efficient mechanical systems and automating technical workflows. He has deep hands-on expertise in Revit since 2010, applies python scripting to streamline repetitive tasks, and contributed to the widely used pyRevit project by improving configuration management, multilingual support and documentation. His work bridges practical engineering (geothermal simulation, energy compliance, hydraulic and aeraulic systems) with research on openBIM-to-BEM workflows at EPFL, reflecting a rare combination of field design, computational tooling and standards-aware modeling. As owner of Cyril Waechter BIM Insight he focuses on producing clearer, less error-prone technical documentation and more sensible, functional installations.
