About The Position

Haskell’s Construction & Manufacturing Team supports delivery groups and projects throughout the United States, providing field management personnel, logistical support, and ongoing training. The team works collaboratively on construction projects to build facilities and solve job-site challenges.

The VDC Specialist I uses Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies and project management methods to support model data extraction for quantity takeoffs and estimating, constructability reviews, design coordination using automated clash detection, and construction sequencing animations for pre-construction planning. The role develops and maintains integrated project coordination models, supports virtual collaboration, converts 2D drawings into 3D Revit models, provides model-based layout coordinates to field teams, processes laser-scan point clouds, and creates construction sequence animations. Experience with Revit and/or Navisworks is desired.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Engineering, or Construction Technology.
• 1–3 years of experience in BIM/VDC technologies in the AEC industry.
• Good communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills.
• Ability to organize and manage complex implementation tasks, establish and meet schedules, and maintain focus on goals.
• Understanding of project workflows, including schematic design, design development, and construction documentation phases, and of project management.
• Understanding of the different needs of delivery-team members, including architects, engineers, estimators, project managers, and field staff.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with Revit and/or Navisworks.
• Proficiency with Autodesk Revit, Autodesk Navisworks, AutoCAD, or similar applications.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain integrated project coordination models using Navisworks, and create clash detection reports from analysis of design-discipline and trade-subcontractor 3D models.
• Participate in virtual collaboration meetings and use coordination models to support decision-making and resolve complex coordination issues.
• Extract quantity data from Revit BIM models for estimating teams and cross-reference contract drawings and specifications to check model accuracy.
• Convert 2D drawing information into 3D Revit models for design and construction details, including creating custom parametric Revit families.
• Provide model-based layout coordinates to onsite field surveying teams for layout of self-perform concrete, steel, utilities, and other systems.
• Process, register, and publish laser-scan point-cloud data for coordination.
• Create 4D/5D construction sequence animations using Navisworks, Synchro, and Lumion for proposals and construction teams.
• Support innovation through research and testing of new technologies.

Benefits

• Health, dental, and vision insurance plans.
• Company-provided hospital indemnity, accident, and critical care plans.
• 401(k) retirement savings plan with company discretionary matching contributions.
• Employee Stock Ownership Plan.
• Paid time off and nine company holidays.
• Professional development and training opportunities.
• Flexible work hours and remote work options.
• Employee assistance programs for physical and mental well-being.
• Opportunities for growth and advancement within the organization.
