Global architecture and design studio with BIM-led delivery across four continents
UNS is a 201–500-person design and architecture studio headquartered in Amsterdam with seven offices spanning China, the Middle East, North America, and Europe. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward CAD/visualization tools (AutoCAD, Revit, Rhinoceros, V-Ray, Enscape) with emerging BIM process standardization across projects — suggesting a shift from design-as-artifact toward design-as-documented-systems. Active hiring is concentrated in design roles (37 openings) across senior and intern levels, while the project list reveals aggressive geographic expansion: Saudi Arabia market entry, Qatar infrastructure, Shanghai BIM initiatives, and Bangalore masterplanning.
Notable leadership hires: Project Director, Associate Director, Director
