Job description

Elusav Recruitment have an excellent opportunity for a BIM Quality Engineer with one of Europe's most reputable and largest engineering contractors, based in Leixlip, Kildare.

The role is very much focused on quality checking BIM models before they are released for fabrication or site, making sure the correct specs, fittings and design requirements have been followed and that everything is practical and buildable before it gets to construction.

Responsibilities:

• Own BIM QA review of 3D modelling for compliance with project specifications,standards and BEP/LOD requirements, while primary cursory checking responsibility for 2D fabrication deliverables remains with the BIM Lead.
• Check coordinated models and associated deliverables for compliance with piping, ductwork, electrical, instrumentation and support specifications.
• Verify space management, access and maintainability requirements are respected in the model.
• Confirm naming conventions, file structure and documentation align with BIM standards.
• Support the BIM Lead by identifying QA issues and recommending acceptance or rejection of deliverables ahead of fabrication pack release.
• Log all fabrication and installation-related issues through the BIM QA Punch Portal, using the correct issue type (BIM, Site or Fab Shop) and project code.
• Ensure sufficient detail is captured for each issue to enable timely and accurate resolution.
• Track issues through to resolution, engaging designers and detailers as needed for comment and close-out.
• Escalate unresolved or recurring issues at the weekly BIM constraints/QA review meeting. Track and trend metric.
• Participate in model versus scan reviews to confirm accuracy against asbuilt/ existing conditions.
• Review clash reports produced under the BIM Lead's remit and confirm that reported clashes have been resolved prior to fabrication release.
• Flag discrepancies between design intent and captured field conditions
• Maintain and update the BIM QA/QC dashboard and trackers, recording issues by tool, discipline, type and status.

• Confirm that all deliverables comply with the project BIM Execution Plan, applicable SOPs and project specifications.
• Act as QA/QC steward for BIM execution.
• Carry out cursory quality audits and housekeeping checks across live models and deliverables.
• Support onboarding and training of new BIM team members on QA expectations and checking procedures.

Requirements:

• Strong background in mechanical, electrical, or piping disciplines with practical trade or engineering experience (e.g. pipefitting, electrical installation).
• Experience checking 3D models and 2D fabrication drawings against specifications.
• Working knowledge of Revit, Navisworks, iConstruct and/or CADWorx.
• Familiarity with BIM360/ACC issue tracking and QA/QC dashboard tools (e.g. Power BI).
• Understanding of clash detection processes and model versus scan validation.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to identify discrepancies and constructability risks.
• Semiconductor, pharmaceutical or advanced manufacturing project experience preferred.
• Strong understanding of project SOP information, specifications, standards and checking procedures required to confirm deliverable compliance.
