Virtual Construction - On - Site - BIM Coordinator & Engineer

Job Description:

Shape the Future of How Buildings Get Built - From the Field

Positioned as a project-embedded Senior Associate on HITT's Virtual Construction team, this role is fully dedicated to a specific project and based on-site full time. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with Superintendents, Project Engineers, Project Managers, and trade partners-using BIM and model-based workflows to directly support installation, sequencing, and real-time problem solving in the field.

Unlike traditional office-based VC roles, this position is intentionally field-forward. Your work will influence day-to-day construction decisions, support proactive issue resolution, and strengthen the connection between digital coordination and physical installation.

Position Overview

Serving as the project-embedded, on-site Virtual Construction lead, this role is fully integrated with field and site operations and dedicated to a single project. The Senior Associate enables construction execution through practical, constructible, and timely BIM coordination-bridging design intent, trade modeling, and field installation.

In this role, you will own the coordination process end-to-end, from model integration through clash resolution and installation support, while maintaining constant alignment with field leadership and trade partners.

Work Location: Full-time, on-site at an active HITT project Assignment Type: Dedicated to a single project for the duration of the assignment

Core Responsibilities

Field-Integrated BIM Coordination

• Lead BIM coordination efforts directly from the jobsite, aligned with construction sequencing and installation priorities

• Develop, manage, and maintain federated models integrating architectural, structural, MEP, and specialty contractor scopes

• Run clash detection and issue resolution workflows with a focus on constructability and field execution

• Partner closely with Superintendents and field engineers to align models with real-world constraints, means, and methods

• Support look-ahead planning by identifying upcoming coordination risks before they impact the schedule

Construction & Trade Partner Collaboration

• Act as the primary Virtual Construction point of contact for trade partners on site

• Facilitate coordination meetings and working sessions that drive decisions-not just issue logs

• Translate model information into actionable field deliverables (installation views, sequences, details, and layouts)

• Support RFIs, field coordination questions, and design clarifications using model-based analysis

Reality Capture & Field Verification

• Execute and manage reality capture workflows (terrestrial scanning, SLAM, photogrammetry as applicable)

• Compare installed conditions against coordinated models to validate progress and detect deviations early

• Integrate scan data into coordination and as-built documentation workflows

Installation & Schedule Support

• Develop model-based installation studies and temporary works coordination

• Support 4D sequencing and visualizations tied to site logistics and phasing

• Assist field teams with model-driven planning for complex work areas and constrained conditions

Leadership and Mentorship (On Project)

• Mentor junior team members assigned to the project on tools, processes, and professional growth

• Contribute to internal VDC playbook development-expertise helps the whole team improve

• Ensure deliverables meet HITT's rigorous quality standards every time

• Participate in continuous improvement initiatives including weekly knowledge-sharing sessions

Required Qualifications

• 3-6 years of experience in commercial construction with 2+ years dedicated BIM/VDC experience

• Strong proficiency in Revit and Navisworks for coordination and clash detection

• Solid understanding of construction means and methods, sequencing, and field operations

• Experience working directly with superintendents and trade partners

• Comfort operating in an active jobsite environment

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with demonstrated ability to translate digital information into field-ready solutions

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience in a field-embedded or project-dedicated VC role

• Experience with reality capture and scan-to-model workflows

• 4D scheduling experience (Synchro Pro, CM Builder, or similar)

• Experience supporting large-scale or technically complex projects (data centers, healthcare, aviation, advanced manufacturing)

• Ability to mentor junior team members assigned to the project

• Experience with NVIDIA Omniverse or similar real-time 3D collaboration platforms
