Structure BIM Designer
Location: Sandy, UT
Compensation: $25–$35 per hour
Bring Structures to Life. Turn Complex Designs Into Construction-Ready Reality.
Are you someone who can look at a set of structural plans and see more than lines on a screen? Do you enjoy the technical side of construction, have an eye for detail, and love turning complex engineering concepts into accurate, coordinated models? We have an exciting opportunity for a talented Structure BIM Designer to join a growing construction team in Sandy, Utah!
We are looking for a motivated, detail-driven professional who understands how great construction begins long before materials arrive on the jobsite. This position plays an important role in transforming structural concepts, engineering drawings, and design specifications into detailed Building Information Models (BIM) that support successful project planning, coordination, fabrication, and construction.
This is an opportunity to put your technical abilities to work, collaborate with experienced construction and engineering professionals, and contribute to projects where accuracy, creativity, and problem-solving genuinely matter. If you enjoy working with technology, understanding how buildings come together, and producing models that make construction more efficient, this could be the perfect next step!
What You'll Be Doing:
-
Develop, create, and maintain detailed 3D structural BIM models using industry-standard design and modeling software.
-
Interpret structural engineering drawings, architectural plans, construction documents, specifications, and design details to produce accurate and coordinated models.
-
Create structural models for building components, including foundations, columns, beams, structural framing, walls, slabs, connections, and other structural elements.
-
Translate 2D construction drawings and engineering details into comprehensive 3D models that accurately represent project requirements.
-
Collaborate with structural engineers, project managers, architects, detailers, designers, and construction teams to ensure design accuracy and project coordination.
-
Assist with BIM coordination efforts by identifying potential design conflicts, inconsistencies, and constructability concerns before they become costly field issues.
-
Perform clash detection and model reviews to identify conflicts between structural, architectural, and mechanical systems.
-
Generate detailed construction drawings, plans, sections, elevations, schedules, and other documentation from BIM models.
-
Maintain model accuracy, organization, and consistency throughout the design and construction process.
-
Incorporate engineering revisions, field changes, RFIs, and design updates into existing models and drawings.
-
Review project documents to identify missing information, discrepancies, and potential design challenges.
-
Work alongside project teams to develop practical modeling solutions that support efficient installation, fabrication, and construction.
-
Assist with preparing shop drawings, fabrication details, and construction-related modeling deliverables as required.
-
Maintain organized project files, model documentation, drawing revisions, and electronic records.
-
Support BIM standards, modeling procedures, quality-control processes, and project-specific requirements.
-
Communicate design questions and technical concerns clearly and professionally to the appropriate project team members.
-
Help improve modeling workflows, drawing accuracy, and overall project coordination.
-
Take ownership of assigned modeling responsibilities while maintaining productivity, accuracy, and attention to detail.
What We're Looking For:
-
Previous experience in BIM design, structural drafting, structural detailing, or a related construction/design position.
-
Strong understanding of structural construction methods, building components, and construction documentation.
-
Experience interpreting structural plans, engineering drawings, specifications, and technical details.
-
Proficiency with Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, Tekla Structures, or other relevant BIM and structural modeling software.
-
Ability to develop accurate 3D models and produce detailed 2D construction drawings.
-
Familiarity with structural framing systems, foundations, concrete, steel, and other building components.
-
Understanding of BIM coordination, clash detection, model organization, and drawing standards.
-
Excellent attention to detail and the ability to identify inconsistencies before they become construction problems.
-
Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
-
Ability to manage multiple assignments, prioritize deadlines, and work effectively within a collaborative team environment.
-
A proactive mindset and willingness to ask questions, learn new technologies, and continuously improve.
-
Construction-related education, drafting certifications, or relevant technical training is a plus.
The Ideal Candidate:
You're technically minded, naturally curious, and someone who takes pride in getting the details right. You understand that a successful construction project depends on countless moving pieces working together, and you enjoy being part of the process that brings those pieces into alignment.
You aren't afraid to dig into complicated drawings, troubleshoot modeling challenges, or collaborate with others to find better solutions. You can balance precision with productivity, communicate effectively with different departments, and understand that even the smallest modeling detail can make a significant difference in the field.
Most importantly, you're someone who wants to contribute, grow professionally, and be part of a team that values quality work and strong collaboration.
Why This Opportunity?
-
Competitive hourly compensation of $25–$35 per hour.
-
Opportunity to work on meaningful structural construction projects.
-
Collaborative environment working alongside construction and design professionals.
-
Hands-on involvement in BIM modeling, structural design coordination, and construction documentation.
-
Opportunity to expand technical knowledge and develop your BIM expertise.
-
A chance to make a measurable impact on project accuracy, coordination, and overall construction success.
If you have the technical skills, structural knowledge, and attention to detail to turn great designs into buildable plans, we'd love to hear from you!
Bring your modeling skills, bring your ideas, and help build something that lasts!
