The Berkeley Lab's Engineering Division is seeking an experienced Principal Building Information Modeling (BIM) Designer to develop a consolidated Autodesk Revit BIM system. The role involves overseeing the integration of as-built models from BIM and parametric design spaces into a unified system, improving model accuracy using 3D laser scans and other data to prevent system clashes. Tasks include model editing, converting 2D drawings to 3D, and coordinating with subcontractors for scan-to-BIM services. The position requires leadership in refining models for complex multi-disciplinary projects in a research or laboratory environment. The BIM Manager will support ALS accelerator system design, including plumbing, HVAC, and electrical systems, and create system drawings and schematics from existing models and field conditions.

What You Will Do

• Lead the development and continuous improvement of the laboratory’s consolidated BIM model, ensuring integration of all design and operational data.
• Establish and enforce BIM standards, processes, and protocols to maintain model quality and consistency.
• Provide strategic leadership in Autodesk Revit and Autodesk Construction Cloud to support facility system design and integration.
• Collaborate with engineering, design, and construction teams to ensure seamless integration of plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and other systems into the ALS accelerator system.
• Lead the creation and maintenance of system drawings and schematics using AutoCAD, Revit, and other tools, ensuring alignment with design and operational goals.
• Supervise and manage a BIM team, mentor professionals, and foster a collaborative, innovative environment.
• Coordinate with vendors, contractors, and consultants to ensure proper implementation of BIM technologies.
• Conduct site visits, manage BIM deliverables for complex projects, and provide regular status updates to management.
• Collaborate with project managers to track milestones and align BIM deliverables with project timelines.
