• Support the creation and validation of accurate as-built models using field verification methods, point cloud scans, and engineering markups.
• Coordinate with design consultants, project managers, and facilities teams to resolve design conflicts and ensure accurate system representation.
• Enable the development of digital twins by ensuring model accuracy and metadata completeness for future simulation and monitoring use.
• Support internal project teams by providing drawing packages, space planning diagrams, and model overlays to aid in design and decision-making.
• Establish workflows for drawing/model version control and coordinate model data with CAFM, IWMS, and document management systems.

• Proven experience developing and managing standards, templates, and model coordination workflows.
• Strong communication and organizational skills with a proactive mindset and attention to detail.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience with point cloud scans, model validation workflows, and LOD requirements.
• Familiarity with digital twin strategies and integrating models into BMS or asset management platforms.
• Experience working in high-tech, semiconductor, or life sciences environments.
• Proficiency in Navisworks or similar tools for clash detection and coordination.
