Project Engineer​/Bim Modeler

Northland Concrete & Masonry (NCM) is a leading commercial concrete and masonry contractor specializing in complex commercial, industrial, institutional, and large-scale construction projects. Our work includes structural concrete, foundations, slabs, formwork, masonry, and specialty scopes.

At Northland, successful projects are built through strong collaboration between the field and the office. Our Project Engineer / BIM Modelers connect those two worlds—using technology, drawings, models, and construction knowledge to help our teams plan, coordinate, estimate, and successfully execute projects in the field.

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys both technology and construction and wants to see their work directly influence how projects are built.

The Project Engineer / BIM Modeler supports Northland's Project Management, Estimating, and Field Operations teams through BIM modeling, drawing review, project coordination, quantity analysis, constructability review, documentation, and field support.

The position develops accurate 2D and 3D models and construction documents, identifies coordination and constructability issues, supports project pursuits and estimating, and provides field teams with practical information needed to execute Northland's work.

The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, technically capable, comfortable working with construction drawings and models, and interested in developing a strong understanding of commercial concrete and masonry construction.

• Create and maintain project layout files using 2D AutoCAD and develop 3D models using Revit, AutoCAD, Sketch Up, or similar software.
• Confirm building geometry and Northland's scope are accurately coordinated with design drawings and other trades.
• Update layouts and models as drawings, shop drawings, ASIs, and revisions are issued.
• Model work to appropriate construction tolerances and develop models that can be utilized by field personnel.
• Create field-specific construction visuals, including CMU elevations, in-slab coordination, post-tensioned structures, embeds, columns, formwork, and other details.
• Maintain accurate, organized project documentation and project control information.

• Perform comprehensive drawing and model reviews to identify coordination, constructability, and scope issues before they reach the field.
• Coordinate Northland's work with structural steel, precast, elevators, anchor bolts, and other trades.
• Review CMU coursing, door frame sizes, floor slopes, drainage, ADA requirements, and other construction details.
• Prepare and track RFIs and assist with resolving technical issues.

• Attend and support design and coordination meetings, both virtually and on site.

• Perform slope and drainage studies using Revit, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, or similar software.
• Develop floor finish plans and confirm specified finishes and scope requirements.
• Review mix designs and reinforcement requirements related to specified floor finishes.
• Develop control joint plans and identify locations and quantities for slabs-on-grade, masonry, brick, and site scopes.
• Identify potential drainage, finish, or constructability issues and communicate solutions to the project team.

• Support project pursuits, preconstruction, quantity analysis, scheduling, and site logistics planning.
• Develop models and visuals for visualization, quantity analysis, constructability, and project execution planning.
• Assist with site logistics, including…
