Job summary

Sehlhorst Equipment Services seeks a CAD/BIM Technician to develop 3D surface models for earthwork, support estimates and bids, and create demolition-ready BIM from drawings using Civil 3D and Revit.

You will coordinate across civil, utility, and grading disciplines, process GPS data, and produce machine-control files for Topcon equipment while maintaining CAD/BIM standards. Strong attention to detail is essential.

Qualifications

• Proficiency in Civil 3D, Revit, and Navisworks required; BIM modeling/coordination experience preferred.
• Experience with earthwork takeoffs and cut/fill analysis.
• Understanding of grading, site design, and underground utility plan sets.
• Experience with Topcon GPS machine control software a plus.
• Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering Technology, Construction Management, or related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple project models simultaneously.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain 3D surface models for earthwork operations using Civil 3D, Agtek, and Carlson.
• Perform earthwork quantity takeoffs (cut/fill) to support estimating and bidding.
• Create BIM models from architectural, structural, and civil drawings for demolition planning using Civil 3D and Revit.
• Create models of underground utility networks using Civil 3D.
• Coordinate and reconcile design surfaces across disciplines (civil, utility, grading).
• Import and process survey and GPS data to build accurate existing-conditions models and analyze earthwork production.
• Generate machine-control models/files for Topcon GPS-guided earthmoving equipment.
• Support project managers and estimators with quantity reports, staging plans, and site logistics visuals.
• Review civil and architectural plans for constructability and flag discrepancies.
• Maintain organized CAD/BIM project files and drawing standards.
• Collaborate with field crews, surveyors, and engineers to keep models current as projects progress.
• Participate in bid review meetings where communication of earthwork analysis, structural demolition sequencing, or utility conflict resolution is necessary.
