VDC Designer & Field Integrator

POSITION SUMMARY

The VDC Designer & Field Integratorserves as the critical link between Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) and field operations, ensuring that coordinated BIM models translate into successful field installation. This role develops electrical models, supports layout and field verification, coordinates prefabrication activities, and works directly with project managers, field supervisors, and installation crews to improve constructability, productivity, and project quality. The ideal candidate combines strong technical modeling skills with practical electrical construction knowledge and a passion for continuous improvement.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

· Develop, maintain, and coordinate detailed electrical BIM models using Revit and other VDC technologies.

· Produce coordination drawings, installation drawings, spool drawings, and prefabrication packages.

· Participate in BIM coordination meetings with owners, architects, engineers, general contractors, and trade partners.

· Perform clash detection, constructability reviews, and model quality assurance using Navisworks or similar software.

· Coordinate model updates resulting from RFIs, design revisions, field conditions, and coordination meetings.

· Support field layout activities using Trimble Total Station, robotic layout equipment, or similar technologies.

· Work directly with project managers, foremen, and field electricians to resolve installation issues using model-based solutions.

· Verify field conditions and ensure BIM models accurately reflect project requirements and installation constraints.

· Support prefabrication initiatives by developing detailed fabrication drawings and installation packages.

· Assist field personnel with model navigation, digital drawings, layout data, and construction documentation.

· Maintain BIM standards, project documentation, file organization, and version control.

· Evaluate new technologies and recommend improvements to VDC workflows, field integration, and construction processes.

· Promote model-based planning to improve safety, productivity, quality, and project execution.
