BIM DESIGNER 1

The NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) enriches the environment and protects public health for all New Yorkers by providing 1.1 billion gallons of high-quality drinking water managing wastewater and storm water and reducing air noise and hazardous materials pollution. DEP is the largest combined municipal water and wastewater utility in the country with nearly 6000 employees. DEPs water supply system is comprised of 19 reservoirs and 3 controlled lakes throughout the systems 2000 square mile watershed that extends 125 miles north and west of the City.

The Bureau of Engineering Design & Construction (BEDC) currently has a portfolio of capital projects valued at $35B and another $13.6B projected over the next 10-year commitment plan. The projects BEDC implements allows DEP as a whole to continue to operate and maintain an exemplary water supply system.

BEDC In-House Design (IHD) directorate provides design and engineering services to meet operations needs in a manner consistent with BEDCs core values of safety schedule quality and customer service. IHD supports projects from the business case through preliminary design design procurement construction and finally with the turnover to operations. The directorate includes two divisions: Design Services and Engineering Services.

IHDs Engineering Services include Quality Assurance Laboratory Services Specifications/Standard Operating Procedures Sustainability and BIM/CADD sections. The Engineering Services division focuses on projects sustainability resiliency laboratory material testing quality reviews and inspections standardization of documents project delivery standards and uses current BIM/CADD technology to streamline engineering design processes.

IHDs Design Services include Architectural Site Civil Structural Process Mechanical/HVAC Water Tunnel Mechanical Systems and Electrical discipline sections. Each design section prepares design and construction documents including engineering plans and specifications for the construction of water supply sewer and wastewater treatment infrastructure. They also provide design services during construction. IHD projects are typically of the highest priority for the Agency. The projects worked on are some of the largest public works contracts administered by the City. They are vital to the health and welfare of the citizens of New York and allow the designers to leave a lasting legacy by creating facilities that will be utilized for generations to come.

BEDC seeks to hire an Assistant Civil Engineer BIM Designer 1 for the IHD BIM/CADD Section located in Queens NY. The BIM Designer will work in a multi-disciplined engineering BIM/ CADD design section that serves the needs of municipal agencies within DEP that provide engineering drawings specifications and other documents related to the design of new or existing facilities. Under the supervision of the lead design engineer and the section manager the selected candidate will assist in the delivery of capital projects through the design phase by preparing engineering models and documents for large projects for water and wastewater pumping stations and treatment facilities which are of the highest priority for the agency. Work shall include preparing said engineering drawings for water supply facilities water tunnels wastewater pumping stations treatment systems and other miscellaneous facilities using Revit AutoCAD Civil3D and other BIM/CAD related software. Other responsibilities include field investigations and utilizing 3D laser scanning for capturing existing conditions. The BIM Designers responsibilities may also include performing similar functions to review and oversee staff designs and models prepared by outsourced engineering firms for similar facilities.

Under general supervision with latitude for independent action and decision-making the selected candidate will be responsible for preparing engineering or architectural designs for review by the professional engineers or architects and may oversee staff engaged in correlative activities. Furthermore the selected candidate will prepare 2D and/or 3D building information models with related software from data with or without sketches reviews and interprets drawings and specifications performs field inspections and makes calculations. These tasks may require the application of geometric trigonometric and algebraic principles formulas and techniques prepares reports memos and correspondence maintains office records of drawings plans maps surveys and inspection data extracts data from various sources e.g. manuals standard reference guides field notes reports etc. The BIM Designer will be expected to be independently capable of applying well-defined methods and principles to resolve issues that may arise.

The BIM Designer will be also responsible for reading and interpreting complex models and drawings comparing them with BIM/CAD standards and making corrections as required. Under the direction of the section manager the selected candidate will perform or assist with BIM/CAD templates setup project technology planning assist with the generation of BIM/CAD standards and implementation plans and other technology related plans protocols or workflows. The BIM Designers additional tasks include working to maintain BIM quality and fidelity adherence to BIM plans and adhering to modeling and information standards. Additional responsibilities will include implementation of effective information protocols and workflows between internal project teams and external consultants. Likewise the selected candidate will coordinate with firm wide design technology section to develop document and communicate best practices for BIM standards templates and content. The BIM Designer must be familiar with advanced architecture engineering and construction industry practices and familiar with MEP 3D coordination processes. The selected BIM Designer will perform clash detection develop 4D/ 5D models construction sequencing analysis and will work with 3D laser scanners virtual/ augmented reality devices and other related technologies in conjunction with related software packages.
