About The Position

In the role of Structural CAD Technician, we'll count on you to work for a specific discipline, under the direct supervision of an Architect/Engineer, or other technical professional. You will be responsible for your discipline model and will generate the BIM elements, based on the Level of Development (LOD) outlined in the Digital Delivery Plan (DDP) and project scope. You will create and maintain the discipline model, systems, content, and overall digital delivery output for that discipline. You will rely on the architect, engineer, or other technical professional to provide direction and guidance throughout the project duration but will be technically competent with the discipline and software used to produce the designs identified in the Digital Delivery requirements. Your tasks will include accurately modeling the BIM elements in the correct special constraints of the modeling environment, using the current 3D software, preparing detailed drawings, layouts, & diagrams of the design within the project scope, schedule, and budget, and maintaining the discipline model including project information, coordinates, scales, orientations, scope boundaries, match-lines, views, and sheets. You will also produce discipline specific documentation with accurate annotations on all modeling output, monitor, improve, and maintain company standards and model health, coordinate the design with other discipline models through Design Reviews and the 3D Coordination process, and assist or execute any additional Digital Delivery requirements identified on the project.
