What you'll do
Reality capture (field)
- Plan and run terrestrial LiDAR scans of existing buildings, sites and in-progress construction, using equipment such as [Leica RTC360 / Faro Focus / Trimble X7].
- Set up scan positions, targets and control points to meet project accuracy requirements.
- Support mobile, handheld or drone-based capture (photogrammetry) where projects call for it.
- Follow site safety rules, care for equipment, and keep accurate field logs.
Point cloud processing (office)
- Register, clean, and georeference scan data in [Leica Cyclone / Faro Scene / Trimble RealWorks / Autodesk ReCap].
- Run quality checks on registration accuracy and point cloud coverage, and flag gaps for re-scan.
- Export and manage deliverables: point clouds, TruViews or web viewers, and 2D floor plans and elevations.
Scan-to-BIM and coordination
- Build and update as-built Revit models from point clouds to the agreed Level of Development (LOD).
- Compare scans against design models to find deviations (as-built vs. as-designed).
- Run clash detection in [Navisworks / Revizto / Autodesk Construction Cloud], and help prepare clash reports.
- Join weekly BIM coordination meetings with designers and trades; track and follow up on open issues.
- Help maintain BIM standards, file naming, and model organization on the common data environment.
Qualifications
Required
- Pursuing or recently completed a degree in Architecture, Construction Management, Engineering, Geomatics, or a related field.
- Working knowledge of Revit and ability to read construction drawings.
- Able to work on active job sites and travel locally (valid driver's license).
- Strong attention to detail and clear communication.
Preferred
- Experience with laser scanners or point cloud software (ReCap, Cyclone, Scene).
- Exposure to Navisworks or other clash detection tools.
- OSHA 10 or FAA Part 107 certification.
What we offer
- Ownership of real scan-to-BIM deliverables on live projects, not just shadowing.
- Training on professional-grade scanners and industry software.
- Mentorship from experienced VDC and BIM professionals.
- A portfolio of point cloud and model work you can show future employers.
- Potential path to a full-time role after graduation.
