CAD Engineering

LogiX-Guru

The Position: We are seeking a mid‑level Structural Engineer with strong expertise in BIM‑driven, industrialized construction, specializing in light‑gauge steel (CFS) framing systems. This role plays a critical part in bridging architectural BIM models and fabrication‑ready manufacturing outputs, leveraging Autodesk Revit and Vertex BD to deliver efficient, code‑compliant structural solutions and CVS files for roll form machines.

The ideal candidate is technically strong, detail‑oriented, and comfortable working at the intersection of engineering design, BIM coordination and manufacturing.

Responsibilities BIM Modeling & Documentation

Develop detailed 3D structural models in Autodesk Revit and Vertex BD by interpreting a wide range of inputs (including preliminary architectural sketches, cost parameters, and project requirements), while actively collaborating with diverse stakeholders such as architects, manufacturers, installers, business and finance teams, and clients.

Translate Revit models into fabrication‑ready Vertex BD models, ensuring constructability and accuracy.

Produce coordinated structural drawings, shop drawings, and BIM deliverables.

Utilize Vertex BD to automatically generate wall, floor, and roof framing layouts for CFS or timber systems.

Structural Analysis & Engineering

Use integrated tools such as Vertex Engineering to analyze CFS wall frames, trusses, and framing systems.

Work collaboratively with architects, manufacturers, installers, business and finance teams, and customers to drive cross-disciplinary coordination and iterative development, ensuring delivery of the highest-quality and most cost-effective product.

Coordinate structural models with architectural and MEP BIM models to identify and resolve clashes.

Participate in BIM coordination meetings and collaborate closely with architects, MEP engineers, and project managers.

Manufacturing & Digital Fabrication Output

Generate CVS files directly from Vertex BD or Revit for automated roll‑forming and fabrication machinery.

Produce accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs) and fabrication data to support procurement and production teams.

Act as a technical liaison between engineering and manufacturing teams.

Compliance & Quality Control

Ensure all designs comply with applicable building codes and standards.

Maintain internal BIM content standards, naming conventions, and quality control procedures.

Conduct model, CSVs and drawing reviews to ensure accuracy, completeness, and constructability.

Demonstrated experience contributing to innovation-focused projects, including development of new products, systems, workflows, or construction methodologies.

Background working in new project development, pilot programs, or early stage project environments where requirements evolve rapidly.

Ability to bridge architectural BIM models and fabrication-ready manufacturing outputs, aligning engineering rigor with speed and flexibility.

Strong collaborator with the ability to communicate and work with cross-functional disciplines, including Engineering, BIM, Business, Finance, Architectural, Manufacturing, and Innovation.

Education Bachelor’s degree in Structural, Mechanical, or Civil Engineering with 1-3 years experience.

3-year degree for CAD Design with 5-7 years of experience

Key Required Competencies and Experience Typically 3–7 years of professional experience in structural engineering with a strong BIM focus.

Hands-on experience with light gauge steel (CFS) framing systems.

Proficient in Vertex BD and/or Revit, familiarity with Sketchup or Framebuilder is also advantageous.

Direct involvement in innovation-driven projects, such as:

Digital transformation or automation initiatives

Pilot or proof of concept construction projects

Ambiguous or evolving project requirements

Cross-functional collaboration beyond traditional engineering roles

Experience supporting projects from conceptual design through fabrication and manufacturing.

Prior involvement in multidisciplinary project teams, collaborating with architects, MEP engineers, and fabrication partners.
