Selectek; Smyrna (GA); On-site; USD 90,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job summary

Selectek in Atlanta is seeking an Electrical Design - BIM/VDC role to develop and manage coordinated electrical models and drawings supporting constructability, prefabrication, field installation, safety and project delivery.

The role partners with Preconstruction, Project Management, Field Leadership, Prefabrication teams and trade partners to ensure electrical scope is accurately modeled, clash‑free, and aligned with project standards and timelines.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in BIM/VDC modeling for electrical construction or design/build.
• Proficiency in BIM/VDC tools, such as Autodesk Revit (required), Navisworks Manage (for clash detection/coordination), Autodesk Construction Cloud / Forma or similar platforms (preferred).
• Strong understanding of electrical systems, NEC standards, and construction workflows (routing, supports, equipment coordination, and field installation constraints).
• Ability to interpret engineered drawings, specifications, and coordination requirements.
• Extrapolate information from equipment submittals or vendor cutsheets.
• Experience producing shop drawings/spools and supporting prefabrication or field installation.
• Familiarity with multi‑trade coordination processes and BIM execution standards.
• Read and understand trade partner’s contract/shop drawings.
• Preferred: healthcare, mission‑critical, industrial, or large commercial projects.
• Knowledge of coordination for low‑voltage systems (security, structured cabling, AV, nurse call, EPMS, BAS/BMS, lighting controls, etc.).
• Field experience or prior electrical trade background.
• Relevant Autodesk/BIM certifications.

Responsibilities

• Create, maintain, and coordinate electrical BIM models (power, lighting, grounding, fire alarm, and low‑voltage systems as applicable).
• Produce high‑quality shop drawings, spooling sheets, and installation deliverables from coordinated models that also align with our company’s safety culture.
• Participate in and/or lead clash detection and coordination meetings with GC and other trades.
• Translate design intent into constructible, field‑ready layouts (supports, sleeves, embeds, equipment rooms, routing, etc.).
• Support prefabrication efforts by providing accurate model‑based spools and material‑driven outputs.
• Coordinate with Project Managers, Superintendents, and Foremen to align modeling priorities with field needs and safety factors or concerns.
• Review contract documents (drawings/specs) and assist with RFI identification, constructability questions, project/schedule constraints, and solution development.
• Maintain model standards and file management per project BEP and internal requirements.
• Track and publish coordination updates, model milestones, and deliverable deadlines.
• Support closeout deliverables such as As‑Builts, record models, and O&M coordination where required.

Job description

Needed immediately: An Electrical Design - BIM/VDC role in the Atlanta, GA metro area. The mission of the BIM / VDC Electrical Design role is to develop and manage coordinated electrical models and drawings that support constructability, prefabrication, field installation, safety, and successful project delivery.

This position partners closely with Preconstruction, Project Management, Field Leadership, Prefabrication teams, and trade partners to ensure the electrical scope is accurately modeled, clash‑free, and aligned with project standards and timelines.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in BIM/VDC modeling for electrical construction or design/build.
• Proficiency in BIM/VDC tools, such as: Autodesk Revit (required), Navisworks Manage (for clash detection/coordination), Autodesk Construction Cloud / Forma or similar collaboration platforms (preferred).
• Strong understanding of electrical systems, NEC standards, and construction workflows (routing, supports, equipment coordination, and field installation constraints).
• Ability to interpret engineered drawings, specifications, and coordination requirements.
• Extrapolate necessary information from equipment submittals or vendor websites and cutsheets.
