Position Summary

The Electrical BIM Modeler II is a mid-level production and coordination role responsible for developing and managing more complex electrical BIM content with a higher degree of independence. This position builds on foundational modeling skills by introducing coordination responsibility, technical problem-solving, and limited leadership within project modeling tasks. The BIM Modeler II is expected to produce accurate, constructible models while actively supporting coordination efforts and helping maintain project BIM standards across multiple systems.

Key Responsibilities

Modeling & Production

• Independently develop and maintain electrical BIM models from design through construction documentation phases
• Model complex electrical systems including:
  • Power distribution (normal and emergency systems)
  • Lighting and lighting control systems
  • Fire alarm and low-voltage systems
  • Equipment connections and feeder routing
• Produce coordinated sheets, views, schedules, and construction documentation
• Review and incorporate RFIs, submittals, design revisions, and field changes into models
• Ensure model accuracy, constructability, and completeness prior to coordination milestones

Coordination & Collaboration

• Actively participate in coordination meetings with other trades (mechanical, plumbing, structural, architectural)
• Run or assist with clash detection workflows using Navisworks or similar tools
• Track, assign, and resolve coordination issues within assigned areas
• Communicate constructability concerns and design conflicts to BIM Lead or project team
• Support field teams with model-based clarifications and layout support when required

Standards & Quality Control

• Enforce and follow company BIM standards, templates, and naming conventions
• Perform self-checking and peer-level review of models before submission
• Maintain clean, organized, and efficient models suitable for coordination and fabrication use
• Identify and resolve model inconsistencies and documentation conflicts proactively

Mentorship & Team Support

• Provide guidance to Tier I BIM Modelers on modeling standards and best practices
• Assist in training or onboarding junior team members as needed
• Share knowledge of workflows, tools, and coordination processes within the team

Experience & Education

Required

• 2–5 years of electrical BIM / Revit modeling experience
• Demonstrated experience producing coordinated construction models

Preferred

• Technical degree, construction management, electrical technology, or equivalent experience
• Field experience in electrical construction or prefabrication environment
• Exposure to BIM coordination environments on large commercial or industrial projects

Required Skills & Competencies

Technical Skills

• Intermediate to advanced proficiency in Revit (MEP electrical tools)
• Working knowledge of Navisworks Manage (clash detection and coordination workflows)
• Strong understanding of electrical construction systems:
  • Power distribution and grounding
  • Lighting systems and controls
  • Low-voltage and specialty systems
• Ability to interpret complex construction documents and specifications
• Understanding of construction sequencing and field installation practices

Behavioral Competencies

• Strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Clear and professional communication in coordination environments
• Strong accountability and ownership of assigned scope
• Ability to manage multiple priorities across projects
• Proactive mindset in identifying and resolving issues

Performance Metrics

Performance is evaluated based on:

• Model accuracy and reduction of coordination issues
• Clash resolution effectiveness and turnaround time
• Ability to meet deadlines with minimal rework
• Participation and contribution in coordination meetings
• Quality and constructability of deliverables
• Responsiveness to RFIs, field input, and design changes
• Support provided to Tier I team members
