Job description

Readiness delivered.Kratos is seeking a skilled Building Information Modeling (BIM)iEngineer to support the development of highly detailed and accurate 3D building information models that enable seamless communication across engineering, manufacturing, fabrication, and construction teams. In this role, you will transform complex design inputs into precise REVIT and CAD models that drive efficient program execution and reduce risk throughout the engineering lifecycle. Working closely with multidisciplinary teams, you will play a critical part in ensuring mechanical, structural, and electrical systems integrate effectively within large?scale defense and simulation programs. This position is ideal for someone who thrives in a collaborative, technology?driven environment and is passionate about delivering high?quality digital models that support innovative engineering solutions. The BIM engineer incorporates CAD models and other engineering inputs to develop and manage detailed 3D building information models using REVIT, Navisworks and other BIM tools. iThese models are used to ensure clear communication for manufacturing, fabrication, assembly, and construction, thereby minimizing errors and supporting efficient program execution.

• Generates and collaborates in drawings, electronic models, and documentation used for manufacturing, integration, and testing
• Interprets engineering sketches, specifications, redline markups, calculations, and other design inputs to accurately translate concepts into detailed 2D and 3D technical drawings and models
• Applies REVIT software tools, drafting principles, and industry best practices to create precise representations of components, assemblies, and systems
• Ensures that all drawings and models clearly convey necessary information for manufacturing, fabrication, assembly, and construction
• Identifies and assesses potential risks associated with designs and their manufacture and proposes mitigation strategies
• Liaison with manufacturing and process engineers, systems engineers, and simulator designers to ensure integration of mechanical systems is feasible and achievable

Keyword: BIM

Required Experience

• Proficiency with AutoDesk Revit to generate building information models (BIM) incorporating 3D models, preferably to include those generated in SolidWorks
