About the Role
We are seeking a BIM/VDC Engineer who can bridge the gap between BIM modeling, point cloud data, construction documentation, and process automation. This role involves reviewing and validating BIM models, ensuring their accuracy against point cloud data, and automating workflows to improve efficiency.
Responsibilities
- Review BIM models created from point clouds and validate them against source data.
- Check model accuracy, completeness, geometry quality, classification, naming, and level of detail.
- Identify missing, misaligned, duplicated, or incorrectly modeled elements.
- Prepare QA/QC reports with actionable feedback for modelers.
- Ensure models follow project-specific BIM standards, modeling guidelines, and delivery requirements.
- Work with point cloud data from LiDAR scans, 360 captures, or reality capture systems.
- Support workflows for converting existing site conditions into clean BIM models.
- Identify repetitive BIM tasks that can be automated.
- Develop scripts, tools, templates, checklists, and workflows to improve efficiency.
- Create rule-based checks for model validation, including naming, categorization, element properties, geometry issues.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil/Structural Engineering or Architecture.
- 3+ years of experience in BIM modeling, BIM coordination, or scan-to-BIM workflows.
- Strong experience with Revit and BIM.
- Good understanding of construction drawings, building elements, levels, grids, MEP/structural/architectural coordination, and site documentation.
- Experience with BIM standards, LOD requirements, naming conventions, parameters, and model organization.
- Experience with scan-to-BIM delivery for commercial, industrial, infrastructure, or large construction projects.
- Experience with tools such as Navisworks, Recap, CloudCompare, Cyclone, Autodesk Construction Cloud or BIM 360.
Qualifications
- Experience creating automation scripts for BIM workflows using Dynamo, Python, Revit API, or similar tools.
- Familiarity with IFC, COBie, BIM data standards, or construction asset classification systems.
- Experience with tools such as Rhino, Grasshopper, or Blender.
Skills
- Hands-on experience creating and reviewing BIM models from point clouds.
- Understanding of construction drawings, site conditions, and BIM standards.
- Experience with scan-to-BIM workflows and automation.
