BIM Manager

This is a hybrid role and we are open to candidates in Chicago, IL. This position will require 1-3 days a week working in a local office. US work authorization is required.

 

About VIATechnik:

VIATechnik is on a mission to lead the built environment in creating a better future, today. We are one team of over 500 digital experts around the globe. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed architects, engineers, tradespersons, researchers, and business leaders. Together, we empower clients through high-quality, high-velocity experiences that consistently improve outcomes across the design, construction, and operations of buildings and infrastructure. Our clients include Amazon, Mars Wrigley, and National Geographic, the firms shaping the world's most ambitious projects.

Role Overview:

Do you enjoy walking into a project without a clear answer and leaving with a solution the client loves? As BIM Manager at VIATechnik's Studio A100, you'll lead BIM projects across retail, restaurant, multi-site, and capital programs, and become the trusted advisor our clients count on.

This is more than a production role. You'll run your projects end to end, from scope and budget to delivery, own the Revit models, content, templates, and standards behind them, and train both our team and our clients. You'll operate with the independence of a consultant, backed by a global BIM and reality capture team.

We're looking for someone we don't need to tell what to do. You see what needs to happen, bring a plan, and bring new ideas, including AI, before anyone asks. If that sounds like how you already work, keep reading.

This is a full-time, hybrid role based in our Chicago office, with 1 to 3 days per week in the office.
