Job description

Digital Built Environment Technician

Kansas City, Missouri

The Digital Built Environment Technician will support the creation of accurate 3D models of existing facilities, primarily using Revit and point cloud data produced with various reality capture workflows. Working with our Buildings Business Line as part of our Digital Built Environment team, this role will focus on scan‑to‑BIM (as‑built modeling) with a strong emphasis on MEPF systems in complex facilities such as hospitals, airports, educational facilities, etc.

Collaborating closely with project managers, engineers, modelers, and scanning technicians, the ideal candidate will bring both technical precision and communication skills to ensure accurate modeling of existing conditions. This role is critical to the success of our reality capture and as-built modeling initiatives, leveraging the latest BIM and point cloud technologies.

Primary responsibilities

• Develop accurate and detailed 3D BIM models in Revit, based on point cloud data and existing building documentation.
• Produce high-quality drawing sets including plans, sections, elevations, and 3D details within Revit.
• Process and interpret point cloud data (from sources such as LiDAR scanners and mobile mapping systems) to inform accurate as-built modeling.
• Participate in clash detection efforts and assist in coordinating issue resolution between design teams, VDC teams, and construction stakeholders.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, including architectural, structural, and MEPF disciplines, to support both design and reality capture projects.
• Perform QA/QC checks to verify model accuracy, adherence to company BIM standards, and alignment with project-specific requirements.

Requirements

• Proficiency in Autodesk Revit for modeling and documentation of building systems.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail in both modeling and documentation.
• Clear and professional communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across disciplines.
• Familiarity with point cloud processing tools (e.g., ReCap, NavVis, or similar) and Scan-to-BIM workflows is preferred.
• Experience with MEPF modeling, construction documentation, or as-built modeling is a plus.
