This Opportunity

We are looking for a BIM Lead to join our growing team! In this role, you'll focus on modeling the ICT (Information and Communications Technology) infrastructure within data centers.
Your work will be essential in creating detailed, high-quality Telecom and ICT drawing packages using Autodesk Revit.
Join us in delivering innovative, award-winning projects and see your designs come to life in critical technology environments.

Your Impact:

• Advanced BIM Modeling:
Leverage your expertise in Autodesk Revit to develop detailed and complex models for ICT infrastructure within data centers.
You will work with complex linked models across multiple trades, ensuring that telecommunications pathways, cabling, and equipment layouts are accurately represented and integrated within the overall project design.

In addition to mastering Revit, you should have a strong understanding of traditional MEP design project workflows and be adept at collaborating with multiple disciplines.
Candidates must be proficient in creating and modifying families and parameters based on project needs, and in using Revit schedules and Excel to manage data effectively.

• BIM Document Management:
A solid understanding of BxP (BIM Execution Plan) is essential.
Candidates should be able to follow or establish BxPs and understand the relationship between excellent Document management and model efficiency.

• Automation and Scripting:
Utilize your advanced skills in Dynamo within Revit to quickly create parameter conversions, export model information, and perform batch modifications.
Strong logical thinking and the ability to identify automation opportunities during the modeling process are key.
Familiarity with scripting platforms like Rhino and Grasshopper to automate repetitive tasks, enhance modeling efficiency, and improve project workflows.
Your ability to create and refine scripts will help streamline processes, reduce errors, and drive innovation within the team.

• Training and Mentorship:
Play a key role in mentoring and training team members, from new hires to advanced users, on best practices in BIM and ICT design.
Your passion for teaching and sharing knowledge will help elevate the skills of the entire team, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment.
Candidates should have a strong background in BIM project setup, production, and engineering knowledge, with the ability to share daily work experience and insights with junior team members.

• Innovation in ICT Design:
Implement customized configurations as specified by our clients, ensuring that our designs incorporate the latest technologies and meet client expectations.
You will collaborate with clients and hardware vendors to develop and integrate customized connectivity hardware into our ICT models.
Your role will be pivotal in adapting these cutting-edge solutions to fit the unique requirements of each project.

• Collaborative Design Integration:
Work closely with a multidisciplinary team of architects, engineers, and other stakeholders to ensure that all ICT models are fully integrated with the broader project.
Your role will involve coordinating with various trades to achieve cohesive and technically sound designs that align with client specifications and project goals.

• Project Management and Leadership:
Take ownership of BIM tasks across multiple projects, managing your workload to meet deadlines and maintain high-quality standards.
You will use project management tools to prioritize tasks, communicate progress, and ensure that the ICT components are delivered on time and within scope.

• Visualization and Data Analysis:
Utilize BIM data to identify potential design issues early and optimize project workflows.
Your ability to visualize complex data and communicate it effectively will be critical in delivering precise, high-quality solutions that meet client needs and project specifications.
