BIM​/VDC Engineer

Career Opportunities with Kent Companies

The BIM/VDC Engineer will develop and manage 3D Building Information Models focused on tilt-wall concrete systems. This role supports design coordination, shop drawing production, and construction planning by ensuring the creation of accurate and detailed digital models that accurately reflect real‑world buildability. The ideal candidate will possess strong technical skills in Revit and Tilt‑werks (willing to receive training), as well as a solid understanding of tilt‑up construction processes.

• Create and maintain detailed BIM models of tilt‑wall panels, including openings, embeds, lifting inserts, reveals, and joint layouts.
• Produce shop drawings, panel drawings, and layout plans directly from the BIM model for fabrication and field use.
• Coordinate with structural engineers, architects, and construction teams to ensure alignment of design intent and constructability.
• Participate in clash detection and coordination meetings to identify and resolve interferences with other building systems.
• Generate quantity takeoffs and assist in estimating and scheduling through model‑based data.
• Apply and maintain company BIM standards, templates, and workflows specific to tilt‑up projects.
• Support field operations by providing model visualizations, lift sequence simulations, and panel erection plans when needed.
• Collaborate with project teams to integrate BIM data with site logistics and project management tools.
• Create accurate 3D Models using Revit based on Contract Drawings to be used for Digital Layout (Model‑based layout).
• Design:
  Validate drawings during the Modelling process and write RFI to resolve drawing discrepancies.
• Maintain 3D Model with any changes due to Drawing Revision, RFI response, Submittal etc. to maintain accuracy of construction Model.
• Support creating Line drawing/Lift drawing based on project needs.
• Support the Shoring Engineer by providing a 3D Model and helping with the visualization of the complex project.
• Work closely with the Field team to learn the constructability means and methods and improve the accuracy of the 3D Model.
• Create a 3D Model for Pre‑Construction to be used for model‑based take‑off to help the Estimator quantity check.
• Support in creating 4D Schedule to help visualize the project sequence to the team and client.
• Provide Graphical support to Marketing for presentation.
• Support delegating and double‑checking the outsourced 3D Model creation company, if any, to get a faster Preconstruction Model.
