DRAINAGE BIM MODELER

Job summary:

We are looking for an experienced and technically proficient Drainage Engineer with a minimum of 5 years of hands-on experience in infrastructure drainage design and modeling. The candidate must demonstrate advanced-level expertise in AutoCAD, MicroStation, and Civil 3D, and be well-versed in working within ISO 19650-compliant BIM environments. The role involves the design, coordination, and documentation of stormwater, foul, and surface drainage systems using industry-standard BIM practices from LOD 100 to 300.

Key responsibilities:

• Design and develop stormwater, foul sewer, and surface water drainage systems for infrastructure and land development projects

• Produce high-quality drainage models and construction drawings using Civil 3D, AutoCAD, and MicroStation at an advanced level

• Implement and manage BIM processes in accordance with ISO 19650 standards

• Prepare and manage design models to meet BIM LOD requirements (LOD 100 to 300) across all project stages

• Conduct clash detection and resolve design conflicts in coordination with other disciplines

• Collaborate with multidisciplinary design teams and contribute to BIM coordination meetings

• Review, validate, and maintain drainage models and datasets throughout the design lifecycle

• Support the development of drainage reports, design calculations, and technical specifications

• Ensure compliance with local codes, client specifications, and international design standards

Qualifications:

• Minimum 5 years of professional experience in drainage engineering with a strong focus on digital delivery

• Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD, MicroStation, and Civil 3D for drainage layout and profile design

• In-depth knowledge of BIM methodologies and ISO 19650 standards

• Experience in developing and managing models at BIM LOD 100, 200, and 300

• Strong understanding of hydrology, hydraulic calculations, and drainage system functionality

• Familiar with BIM collaboration platforms (e.g., BIM 360, ProjectWise, or similar)

• Ability to interpret and implement drainage-related standards and client BIM execution plans

• Strong analytical, communication, and organizational skills

Preferred qualifications:

• Bachelors degree in Civil Engineering or related discipline

• Certification in BIM or relevant training aligned with ISO 19650

• Experience with Navisworks or other coordination/clash detection tools

• Exposure to major infrastructure projects (e.g., highways, airports, rail, urban developments)

• Familiarity with sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and water-sensitive urban design principles
