About VIATechnik:

The firm's services include Virtual Design & Construction (VDC), Building Information Modeling (BIM), Virtual & Augmented Reality, Digital Twins, and Enterprise Software Application Development.

Our team is made up of leading VDC professionals, technologists, architects, and engineers who have a passion for solving problems and a thirst for learning. We are results-driven, creative solution finders and enjoy putting ourselves in our clients' shoes.


The role:

As a VDC Manager with a specialty in the mechanical and/or piping areas, you'll have the opportunity to apply your technical and engineering skills across a multitude of projects, and contribute to world-class thought leadership around BIM and VDC and manage a small team of VDC Engineers.

This includes ensuring that plumbing and/or mechanical projects for trade contractors incorporate BIM processes from schematic design through construction. The ideal candidate is someone who thrives in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment and has a deep passion for developing and implementing innovative BIM processes across dispersed teams.


In this role you will:

  • Collaboratively and proactively lead the global project management of VDC/BIM projects, planning for and moving projects along independently
  • Manage a team of 2-3 VDC Engineers and multiple BIM specialists
  • Act as a subject matter expert for our team in the plumbing and/or mechanical areas
  • Serve as a primary interface to clients, cultivating client relationships. Regularly present work and conduct meetings with the client
  • Respond to requests for information (RFIs) and manage the RFI submittal process
  • Coordinate and lead global project teams to complete client work
  • Create and manage complex commercial and industrial design projects within Revit, Navisworks, Procore, BIM360, and other supporting programs
  • Contribute to our culture of professional development and knowledge sharing by participating in and leading training efforts
  • Have the opportunity to get involved in projects where plumbing and/or mechanical isn't the focus, expanding your knowledge

Apply if you have:

  • A bachelor's or master's degree in engineering or a similar discipline
  • 5+ years of experience providing implementation, training, and support in BIM and VDC
  • Managed 2-3 detailers and/or VDC Engineers
  • 5+ years of experience working for a plumbing and/or mechanical trade contractor
  • Experience in combining and coordinating BIM updates, running clash detection on revised components and communicating results to internal and external stakeholders
  • Experience modeling, drafting, producing drawings, and reading mechanical and plumbing plans
  • Capability to work effectively in a self-directed way within an extremely fast-paced, ever-changing environment
  • The ability to manage multiple simultaneous projects requiring frequent communication, organization, time management, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and contracts
  • A proactive and flexible attitude; willingness to take an "all hands on deck" approach
  • Ability to work some early/late hours to coordinate with project teams in other countries
  • Experience in leading online meetings and training sessions across remote project teams using platforms
  • Experience with software such as AutoCAD MEP and/or Fabrication CADMEP

Even better if you have:

  • Field construction experience
  • Been involved in the administrative side of projects: invoicing, budgeting, scheduling, and forecasting
  • Knowledge of other primary building systems: foundations, primary building structure and walls, electrical, fire protection, specialty systems, conveying systems and interior finishes and the sequence of assembly of each
  • Experience managing BIM and VDC across a project lifecycle
  • Understanding of real world constructability of modeled systems
  • A portfolio of work you can share
  • Proven track record of effectively working with and managing teams remotely
  • Background in providing professional services to clients

Compensation and featured benefits:

  • The pay for this position is $100,000+, and the role is eligible for bonuses. The actual salary offer may be different as we carefully consider a wide range of factors, including your skills, qualifications, location, and experience
  • Health insurance with the choice of five plan options. We cover 70-95% of premiums for VIATechies and 70% of the premiums for dependents
  • Dental and vision insurance. We cover 75% of the monthly insurance premiums for VIATechies and 50% of the premiums for dependents
  • Open and flexible time off
  • A 401(k) plan that is fully vested immediately
  • Home office setup costs
  • Paid holidays

As a minority and woman owned and led company, VIATechnik takes diversity and inclusion to heart. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be.
