BIM VDC Electrical Coordinator

We are seeking a skilled BIM VDC Electrical Coordinator to join our engineering department. This role focuses on electrical constructability review, trade coordination, and installation planning for commercial and industrial facilities. The successful candidate will transform engineered drawings into comprehensive, constructable installation plans that optimize both trade coordination and installation efficiency.

• Develop detailed 3D models and installation sequences using Autodesk Revit and Navisworks
• Perform clash detection and resolution across all building systems
• Create comprehensive installation plans that consider trade coordination and sequencing
• Generate accurate material takeoffs and installation documentation
• Coordinate with other trades to ensure optimal installation efficiency

• Analyze engineered drawings for whole building electrical distribution systems
• Plan installation methods for pipe racks, cable tray, conduit, and specialized raceway systems
• Design support systems and attachment methods for electrical infrastructure
• Develop routing strategies that minimize conflicts and maximize accessibility
• Create detailed installation sequences and phasing plans

• Ensure all installation plans comply with current NEC requirements
• Verify proper conduit types, support spacing, and installation methods
• Calculate and verify cable fill ratios, box fill requirements, and bend radius compliance
• Review and validate support spacing and structural attachment requirements
• Identify potential code violations and constructability issues before construction

• Prepare detailed installation drawings and specifications
• Create visual installation guides and sequencing documentation
• Collaborate with field teams to address constructability concerns
• Participate in design coordination meetings and trade coordination sessions
• Generate progress reports and project documentation

• Strong understanding of electrical distribution systems in commercial/industrial applications
• Comprehensive knowledge of NEC requirements for electrical installations
• Experience with conduit systems, cable tray, pipe racks, and specialty raceways
• Understanding of electrical support systems and structural attachment methods
• Knowledge of electrical equipment installation and spatial requirements

• Advanced proficiency in Autodesk Revit (electrical/MEP modules)
• Strong experience with Navisworks for clash detection and coordination
• Familiarity with additional BIM software and coordination tools preferred
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite and project management software

• Associate's degree in Electrical Engineering Technology, Construction Management, or related field
• Minimum 3-5 years of experience in electrical construction or BIM coordination
• Background in electrical installation or field experience preferred
• Relevant certifications (NECA or BIM-related) are a plus

• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
• Excellent attention to detail and accuracy
• Effective communication and collaboration skills
• Ability to work independently and manage multiple projects
• Strong organizational and time management skills
• Commitment to continuous learning and staying current with industry standards

• Experience with prefabrication and modular construction techniques
• Knowledge of additional trade coordination (HVAC, plumbing, structural)
• Familiarity with lean construction principles and methodologies
• Experience with cloud-based collaboration platforms (BIM 360, ACC)
• Understanding of construction sequencing and project scheduling

• Office-based position with occasional job site visits
• Collaborative team environment with cross-functional project teams
• Fast-paced environment with multiple concurrent projects
• Opportunity for professional development and advancement

This position offers the opportunity to work on diverse commercial and industrial projects while contributing to improved construction efficiency and quality through advanced BIM coordination and planning.
