Telecommunications BIM Designer

About the role

At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good. As a Telecommunications BIM Designer, you will be engaged in the design documentation while being responsible for the set-up and management of Revit BIM models in coordination with other discipline BIM leads and team members. Working under the direction of telecom discipline or project leads, this position provides an opportunity to showcase your Revit expertise while staying in accordance with Jacobs and client BIM standards. Using a mixture of Revit, Navisworks and AutoCAD software platforms you will create and manage content towards fully coordinated 3D models across all design disciplines (C,S,A,M,E,P,T,I,L) as well as creating 2D construction drawings. This is accomplished in coordination with other designers, discipline leads, architects and engineers who are all on the same Jacobs design team. Using the Jacobs design methods in conjunction with your keen eye for detail and established BIM skills, you will be part of our telecom design team working to turn the design intent of our senior telecom design staff into constructable deliverables including clash-free 3D models.
