3D BIM CAD Technician

In the UK, we are delivering some of the most iconic projects which help connect people, protect our environment and meet emission reduction targets. We work in the transport and energy sectors, providing consultancy, engineering and operations services for clients such as major airports, governments, regulators, cities and rail and road operators.

With over 50 years of experience in the rail industry, we’ve delivered complex and challenging multidisciplinary projects all over the world. Our expertise extends to depots, operations, maintenance analytics and asset management across all aspects of rail, including transport, technical and sustainability assessments and systems infrastructure.

Based in London, 1 day on site in West London (Old Oak Common Station) and 2 days in our Waterloo office is required.

The CAD Technician plays a critical role within the Engineering Directorate, focusing on the production and coordination of high-quality 3D CAD models with embedded data and ensuring their alignment with project standards and the BIM Execution Plan.

As a CAD Technician you will take the role in the implementation of Digital deliverables, ensuring all outputs are produced to a high standard in accordance with project requirements.

• Assist in the delivery and management of projects from technical design to construction stage to ensure compliance and delivered to project standards.
• Responsible for implementing best practice and consistent processes across the project, liaising with project stakeholders and the supply chain to ensure the correct standards are applied.
• Responsible for quality processes and quality standards of all deliverables, including exchange information and conversion processes.
• Utilise Bentley ProjectWise with OpenBuilding Designer, RaceWAY and MicroStation for detailed 3D CAD model creation and documentation, ensuring models are fully coordinated and using clash avoidance tools embedded within the digital twin used on the project.
• Liaise with discipline BIM leads to ensure optimised clash results using suppression rules based on modelling methods.
• Lead the production of high-quality 3D CAD models and detailed construction drawings for specific elements of railway station projects, ensuring integration with overall project information models.
• Produce model geometry and information in line with the Component Catalogue and outline information within the BIM Execution Plan (BEP).
• Ensure all models submitted meet the project requirements set out, and ensure systems are in place for clash avoidance, internal model audits and clash detection before model submission.
• Support and liaise with the BIM Coordinator, BIM Manager and wider project joint venture team in the implementation of deliverables adhering to specified project standards and to facilitate issue resolution.
• Assist in the maintenance of the project's ProjectWise Common Data Environment, ensuring accurate and timely information flow and adherence to data management standards.
• Participate in quality assurance checks to ensure they meet the project's accuracy, detail, and the employers' information requirements.
• Assist in monitoring compliance with the BEP and the supporting project standards, contributing to regular reports on BIM deliverable status.
• Work closely with other disciplines to ensure the 3D CAD models are integrated and coordinated efficiently, attending regular coordination meetings as necessary.
• Provide technical support and guidance to project team members on BIM-related issues.
