[Hiring] Electrical BIM Specialist @AECOM

Role Description

AECOM is seeking an Electrical BIM (Digital Design) Specialist to electrical engineering design and documentation through the development and coordination of Building Information Models (BIM) and construction drawings. The successful candidate will have strong proficiency in Autodesk Revit, electrical drafting, and shop drawing development, with the ability to translate engineering markups and redlines into accurate, coordinated construction documents. This individual will work independently under the direction of electrical engineers and collaborate with multidisciplinary project teams to support project delivery.

This position offers the flexibility of a remote work schedule and can be based from a variety of locations in the US where AECOM has an office. Although the position is primarily remote, periodic travel may be required for client meetings, key project milestones, onsite collaboration sessions, or other business-critical activities. Travel is expected to be occasional and scheduled in advance.

AECOM is a leader in the global data center consulting industry with robust teams in the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. In this role, you will have the opportunity to work with our teams around the world on high-profile, fast-paced data center projects for global clients. This is a hands-on, client-facing role with an opportunity for upward career mobility.
