Residential Revit Designer & Estimator

Lightspeed; Northbrook (IL); In loco; USD 85.000 - 115.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

LightSpeed Build Technologies is seeking a Residential Design & Estimating Specialist to own residential Revit models from plan sets to production-ready files and generate first estimates for each project.

You will collaborate with the Preconstruction & Procurement Manager to convert takeoffs into bid packages with pricing from subcontractors and suppliers, ensuring accuracy and timely updates as designs evolve.

Competenze

• 3+ years modeling residential buildings in Revit to construction-document level, including structural framing and MEP
• Hands-on experience producing quantity takeoffs, bills of materials or construction estimates
• Strong practical knowledge of US wood-frame construction and working familiarity with IRC and NEC
• A sharp eye for plan-set gaps and conflicts, and the confidence to raise them early
• Disciplined modeling habits and reliable delivery against firm milestones
• Able to work on-site in Northbrook, IL

Mansioni

• Review incoming plan sets from customers and architecture partners, and flag what is missing, unclear or conflicting before it reaches the factory
• Take designs from rough layouts through review cycles to approved, construction-ready plans, with renderings when they help a customer decide
• Build and maintain a library of standard plan sets and Revit templates that new projects can start from
• Build and fix construction-ready Revit models: architectural, wood structural framing to IRC prescriptive requirements, and MEP rough-in
• Keep models clean and consistently structured so they export reliably to IFC and BTLx for engineering and robotics teams
• Confirm every design is buildable by our robotic system, working with engineering on anything that is not
• Coordinate model updates with outside design partners and keep one current version of every project
• Produce quantity takeoffs and bills of materials straight from the model: lumber, sheathing, fasteners, windows, doors and MEP rough-in
• Build initial project estimates using our robotic-construction cost model and industry cost data adjusted for location
• Hand finished takeoffs and estimates to the Preconstruction & Procurement Manager for bid packages and buyout
• Update quantities and pricing quickly when a design changes, and flag the cost or schedule impact
