Summary
David Baldacchino is a Firmwide Design Technology leader with 11 years of experience driving BIM, automation, and software workflows at HOK from Houston. He blends hands-on automation (FME, REST APIs, Dynamo) and product-style backlog management with firmwide tool deployment and training, enabling teams across architecture, interiors, landscape and engineering to work more efficiently. His work spans integrations with Trimble, dRofus, Newforma and Microsoft Teams, plus Revit add-ins, Clarity and point-cloud optimization—often delivered as just-in-time, automated processes. Comfortable as a conduit between software development, enterprise IT and design leadership, he pairs technical depth (source control, DevOps) with practical change management and documentation. A long-time Autodesk/AUGI contributor and conference speaker, he quietly advances firm productivity by turning repetitive tasks into reliable, scalable systems.
