Senior Piping Detailer - VDC/BIM

At Haskell, you’re not just joining a company—you’re joining a nationally recognized Top Workplace where diverse perspectives and inclusive thinking drive stronger outcomes. Whether you’re starting out, growing your expertise, or leading the way, you’ll find a culture grounded in trust, driven by excellence, and built to support your goals. Here, you’ll have the opportunity, flexibility, and sense of belonging to grow your career your way—while making a real impact.

About the role

In this role, you will convert P&IDs, design documents, and engineering intent into highly accurate pipe fabrication drawings, assembly sheets, spool drawings, and coordinated bill of materials. This role primarily focuses on industrial projects such as water/wastewater, manufacturing, and mission critical. We are open to remote team members; however, if you are located near a Haskell office, we highly encourage you to integrate with the team and our company culture.

Responsibilities

• Translate P&IDs, process schematics, and design drawings into detailed fabrication-ready pipe models.
• Produce spool sheets, cut lists, bill of materials, and fabrication isometrics with clear labeling.
• Coordinate pipe routing and supports with structural, equipment, and other trades.
• Interpret engineering specifications, material standards, valve schedules, and QA/QC requirements.
• Review and integrate vendor drawings, equipment submittals, and field markups.
• Collaborate with Project Managers, field superintendents, fabrication shops, and the VDC team.
• Maintain model accuracy through project lifecycle changes and revisions.
• Support the development of internal standards, templates, and best practices for fabrication detailing.
• Assist other self-perform detailing scopes as needed (steel embeds, equipment layouts, skids, etc.).
• Support other VDC service offerings as needed:
  • Visualization - Renderings, animations, 4D schedule simulations, virtual reality
  • 3D Modeling - scan-to-BIM, construction detailing for trades and self-perform
  • Coordination - BIM coordination / clash detection between design disciplines, trade subcontractors, consultants, equipment vendors; coordination overlay drawings for overhead coordination, underground utilities, concrete, etc.
  • Estimating - model-based quantity takeoff of BIM design & construction models, field progress tracking, Power BI dashboarding, etc.
  • Laser Scanning - reality capture (laser scanning) of existing conditions for design and construction teams, including deviation analysis, and 360 photo viewing solutions
  • Digital Layout - survey stake-out and as-built reporting to support self-perform, and quality control of subcontractor installations
  • Drone - aerial survey / mapping of topography, overlays, and photo/video deliverables, for design team, construction teams, and marketing needs
  • SUE - subsurface utility engineering, with GPR & EM locates, combined with hydrovac excavation to identify existing utilities
• Research and implement new innovative solutions to improve efficiencies.
• Travel as required.
• Other duties which may be assigned as needed.

Requirements

• Minimum of a two-year Associate’s Degree in a CAD/BIM-related specialization such as Construction Management, Drafting Technology, Architecture, or Mechanical/Civil Engineering.
• 10+ years of relevant experience in AEC industry pipe detailing.
• Demonstrated experience with Mechanical, Plumbing, or Process Mechanical piping design (or subcontractor detailing preferred).
• Experience with Water/Wastewater, Food & Beverage, Beer/Wine/Spirits, Data Centers/Mission Critical/Manufacturing project types.
• Proficiency with BIM (Revit and AutoCAD Plant3D) is required, along with exposure to reality capture, drone, survey, and layout applications is preferred.
• Understanding of project workflows (schematic design, design development, construction documentation phases) and project management.
• Understanding of different needs of the delivery team (architects, engineers, estimators, project managers, and field staff).
• Strong understanding of piping materials (PVC, HDPE, ductile iron, stainless, carbon steel, grooved, flanged).
• Ability to read and interpret P&IDs, process flow diagrams, civil/site plans, and structural drawings.
• Clear understanding of fabrication sequencing, field installation constraints, and as-built workflows.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work with distributed teams.
• High attention to detail, accuracy, and model organization.
• Experience with wastewater or water treatment process piping.
• Experience generating shop drawings for self-perform crews.
• Familiarity with Navisworks and clash coordination.
• Experience with BIM/VDC workflows, naming standards, and worksharing.
• Understanding of pressure classes, valve actuation, pump connections, and equipment tie-ins.
• Fabrication shop or field installation experience.

Benefits

At Haskell, we offer a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, retirement plans, and professional development opportunities.
