• Support software lifecycle activities including updates, installations, and deployments.
• Administer design software licensing and support projects hosted on cloud‑based collaboration platforms.

• Professional license not required.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience developing and governing BIM standards, templates, and shared content libraries for multi‑discipline teams.
• Experience with cloud collaboration (e.g., model hosting, access control, and coordination workflows).
• Comfort leading change, driving adoption, and coaching teams through new tools and processes.
• Familiarity with established operating procedures and quality standards within an A/E firm environment.
