Archived listing. The details below describe a past opening.

We are seeking an experienced BIM Modeler/Detailer to develop accurate, coordinated 3D electrical models and construction-ready drawings for commercial electrical projects. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with electrical construction modeling, BIM/VDC coordination, clash detection, and prefabrication detailing. This role works closely with engineers, project managers, and field teams to improve constructability, resolve coordination issues, streamline installation, and support efficient project execution.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain detailed 3D electrical models, including conduit pathways, cable trays, equipment, hangers, sleeves, and penetrations.
  • Produce shop drawings, installation plans, spool drawings, coordination layouts, and prefabrication packages.
  • Perform clash detection and coordinate electrical systems with architectural, structural, mechanical, plumbing, and fire protection models.
  • Review design documents and specifications to identify discrepancies, installation challenges, and missing information.
  • Collaborate with engineers, project managers, and other trades to resolve BIM/VDC coordination issues.
  • Incorporate approved RFIs, submittals, design revisions, and field changes into project models.
  • Coordinate with estimators, superintendents, foremen, and field crews to ensure models reflect actual site conditions and installation requirements.
  • Develop models that support prefabrication accuracy, installation sequencing, and field productivity.
  • Provide updated drawings and technical modeling support throughout construction.
  • Prepare as-built documentation and final model deliverables at project completion.
  • Maintain drawing accuracy and ensure all deliverables comply with project standards and specifications.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience in BIM modeling, electrical detailing, VDC design, or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience with commercial electrical construction projects is required.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop electrical system models and construction-ready drawings.
  • Advanced proficiency in Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, and Navisworks.
  • Knowledge of electrical installation practices, conduit routing, cable trays, equipment layouts, supports, and penetrations.
  • Experience with clash detection, BIM/VDC coordination, and multidisciplinary construction models.
  • Ability to read and interpret electrical and architectural drawings, specifications, and construction documents.
  • Strong understanding of field installation requirements, constructability, and construction sequencing.
  • Ability to produce accurate, coordinated models that field crews can use directly for installation.
  • Prefabrication modeling and spool drawing experience preferred.
  • Strong attention to detail, communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
  • Associate degree, technical certification, or equivalent training and experience in BIM, drafting, electrical design, or a related discipline preferred.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience.
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • 401(k) with company match.
  • Paid time off and company holidays.
  • Professional training and advancement opportunities.
  • Steady pipeline of commercial electrical projects.
  • Access to advanced BIM/VDC and prefabrication technologies.
  • Exposure to complex commercial construction projects.
  • Collaborative team environment.
  • Long-term career development opportunities.
