We’re working with a leading multidisciplinary consulting firm to hire a VDC Engineer / BIM Specialist for their growing New York City office.

This is an opportunity to join a high-performing Virtual Design & Construction team delivering complex infrastructure and building projects using cutting-edge technology. You’ll play a key role in driving BIM strategy, coordination, and model delivery across major public and private sector projects.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Develop and manage detailed 3D BIM models across architectural, structural, MEP, and civil/site disciplines
  • Lead model setup, coordination, and management throughout the full project lifecycle
  • Perform clash detection and lead 3D coordination meetings with internal teams and trade partners
  • Oversee QA/QC processes to ensure model accuracy and compliance with project standards
  • Coordinate with engineers, architects, contractors, and stakeholders across multidisciplinary teams
  • Support reality capture workflows including LiDAR scanning, point cloud processing, and Scan-to-BIM
  • Produce visualizations, renderings, and 4D simulations to support project delivery
  • Review contract documents, drawings, and scopes to ensure alignment with BIM deliverables
  • Assist with proposals, client presentations, and technical documentation
  • Support site visits, field verification, and troubleshooting of BIM/VDC tools and workflows

What They’re Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Engineering, Construction Management, or related field
  • 5+ years of experience in BIM/VDC within the AEC industry
  • Strong proficiency in Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Autodesk Construction Cloud
  • Experience leading coordination and managing BIM deliverables on complex projects
  • Ability to interpret construction drawings, specifications, and project documentation
  • Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical teams

Nice to Have

  • Experience on public sector or infrastructure projects
  • Familiarity with Bentley tools (MicroStation, OpenBuildings, OpenRoads)
  • Experience with LiDAR scanning and point cloud workflows
  • Exposure to Dynamo, Python, or Revit API development
  • Understanding of construction means and methods

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on high-profile NYC infrastructure and building projects
  • Join a well-established, technology-driven VDC practice
  • Be part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary team spanning design, construction, and technology
  • Clear opportunity to grow into leadership within VDC/BIM
