VDC 4D Coordinator (Data Center)

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. Your impact This job opportunity is available at ANY location in the United States. Ideally, selected candidates will be near a JACOBS U.S. based office, but we intend to hire the "best" candidates. Help make 4D a working part of construction planning. We’re looking for a VDC 4D Coordinator who understands construction, enjoys solving problems, and wants to help unify models and schedules to inform strategy and accelerate the re-industrialization of the country. Our team’s ambition is to make 4D as essential to construction planning as clash detection is in coordination. We build simulations that help teams visualize and evaluate sequencing, understand constraints, compare approaches, and prepare for execution. We’re also expanding into 5D, connecting model quantities, schedules, and cost information to support more informed planning. You’ll work across multiple projects, collaborate with an international delivery team, and help improve the tools and processes behind our work. This role combines hands-on production with room to experiment deliver useful work today while helping us build better ways to deliver it tomorrow. Beyond individual project deliverables, you’ll help establish practical, repeatable ways to use 4D—and increasingly 5D—in everyday project work. We’re looking for someone who wants to produce strong work, learn from project teams, and help move the practice forward. Have a 4D simulation, workflow improvement, or project example you’re proud of? We’d welcome a portfolio link.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain 4D models that connect 3D model elements with construction schedules using SYNCHRO 4D Pro or comparable tools.
• Prepare/structure/vet model data, including Revit parameters and element coding, to support reliable schedule linking and efficient updates.
• Work with project teams to understand construction methods, evaluate sequencing, and identify schedule conflicts, constraints, risks, and opportunities.
• Create clear simulations, visualizations, and presentations that support planning discussions and communicate construction strategy.
• Keep models and deliverables current as designs, schedules, and project priorities change. Pivot between projects as needed.
• Coordinate work with an international delivery team, setting clear priorities, providing useful handoffs, and reviewing deliverable quality.
• Improve repeatable workflows, troubleshoot data integration issues, and test tools and automation that improve speed, accuracy, or usefulness.
• Help develop 5D workflows that connect model quantities, schedule
