Lead I - Engineering Design - BIM Engineer

Job Title: BIM Engineer - LOD 350-500 & Tower Digital Twin Location: Remote Type: Contract- 2-3 Months Role Overview The BIM Engineer (LOD 350-500) will lead the validation of development and management of high-fidelity 3D models of tower structures (telecom/utility). The focus is on creating accurate, "construction-grade" digital twins that integrate detailed structural connections, component data, and IoT sensor data to support structural analysis, predictive maintenance, and operational lifecycle management. Key Responsibilities

• LOD 350-500 Modelling & Data Integration: Validate & Fix 3D models at LOD 350-500, ensuring accurate representation of tower components (lattice, monopoles, mounts) and their precise connections with other systems (antennas, mounts, cables).
• As-Built Documentation: Transform laser scan data/point clouds into detailed 3D Revit models to create highly accurate "as-built" digital twins.
• Clash Detection & Resolution: Perform multidisciplinary clash detection to ensure, and validate, that new equipment fits within the existing structure without conflicts before deployment.
• Digital Twin Lifecycle Management: Integrate sensor data (IoT) into the BIM model to monitor real-time conditions like deflection, temperature, and structural stress.
• Structural Analysis Prep: Prepare models for engineering analysis by ensuring accurate geometry, material specifications, and connectivity details.
• Documentation Management: Generate, manage, and update construction documents, shop drawings, and asset data sheets. Required Skills & Qualifications
• Software Proficiency: Expert knowledge of Autodesk Revit (mandatory) and AutoCAD. Experience with BIM 350-500, Navisworks for clash detection, and RSA software for structural analysis.
• Experience: 8-10+ years of experience in BIM modelling, with specific experience in structural steel or telecommunication towers preferred.
• LOD Standards: Deep understanding of AIA LOD specifications, specifically the transition from LOD 350 to LOD (elements + connections).
• Data Driven: Experience in connecting BIM models with IoT systems for Asset Management (Digital Twin).
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in civil/Structural Engineering, Architecture, or related field
