We have an immediate need for a Piping BIM Engineer in the microelectronics/semiconductor space in the Phoenix area.
We are recruiting BIM (Building Information Modeling) engineers well-versed in piping design for construction site projects. Responsibilities in this role include designing 3D models of piping aligned with P&ID, as well as coordinating and negotiating BIM through on-site interactions with other companies. In this position, you will utilize Plant3D to visualize piping design, welding, quantity, and progress. You will be responsible for designing scaffolding and piping supports, creating 3D models, checking and eliminating interference using 3D models (specification management, catalog creation, interference checks).
Salary: $92K to $110K
Travel: 10 to 49%
Responsibilities
Based on P&ID, develop 3D model designs for piping and supports.
Execution of collision detection and collaborative resolution
Updating and managing model data including attribute information
Collaborate with design and production teams to integrate data
Ensuring compliance with BIM standards and modeling guidelines
Creating 3D piping models that align with P&ID, including information such as pipe size, material, and quantity.
Specification management (piping class, diameter, material, standards)
Creating custom catalogs and specifications
3D model creation of installed equipment (rotators, heat exchangers, tower tanks, etc.)
Creation of 3D models of mounting and piping supports
Interference checking and elimination using 3D models (advanced 3D piping design, specification management, catalog creation, interference checks)
For each spool (piping unit), data such as "manufacturing status," "welding completion status," and "on-site installation status" is continuously tracked and understood (progress definition, dashboard creation, spool and welding progress management).
Using information contained in the 3D piping model, we extract piping lengths, fittings, and valve quantities "accurately"
Create a material list (BOM/MTO) from a 3D model, then output it by line, system, and area
Verify and confirm whether quantities (BOM/MTO) created from 3D models can be used directly for procurement (ordering) and cost management (accurate quantity extraction from 3D, MTO creation, cost coordination)
Skills, Knowledge & Abilities
Expert users of Plant3D ('3D' refers to 3D data created with Plant3D)
The ability to independently set projects (specs, catalogs, steel materials)
Skills sufficient to fully understand the contents of piping material specifications (Able to fully understand standards, materials, types of fittings, connection methods, bolts/nuts, piping equipment, and types/characteristics of steel materials)
Practical experience in Plant3D project creation
Practical experience in spec registration for piping parts and steel materials
Bolt length can be automatically calculated to be entered at the appropriate length
Practical experience in 3D modeling of installed equipment (rotators, heat exchangers, tower tanks, etc.)
Models of equipment based on delivery drawings (nozzle specifications can be accurately designed)
You can register nozzle specifications in the specs
Practical experience in 3D modeling
Based on P&ID and PLOT PLAN, you can select and model appropriate piping classes, fittings, and piping equipment from specifications
Allows planning of piping routes considering workability (piping pitch, alignment, flange ratio, support, etc.)
Supports and piping supports can be planned and modeled using appropriate steel materials
Constraint conditions can be set considering heat transfer for steam piping support
Practical experience in welding definition and spool creation
Practical experience in correctly defining weld locations on 3D piping models (distinguishing between factory/on-site welding, weld numbers, welding specifications), cutting out spools (manufacturing units) based on these, and creating practical spool diagrams that can be used
Ability to draft General Assembly and mounting drawings from 3D data
Practical experience with Plant3D's 2D cropping function
Practical experience extracting BQ (MTO/BOM) from 3D data
Practical experience creating BOMs/MTOs (Lists of Materials) by hand using attribute and quantity data contained in 3D models
Practical experience in revision management
Manage 3D models and outputs with unified revision status
Ability to build progress visualization systems
Ability to define and aggregate progress based on design, fabrication, and construction progress data (3D/welding/quantity, etc.), and build a "visualization system" that can be used for management and customer reporting (practical experience with Excel and Power BI)
Practical experience with various functions in Navisworks Manage/Simulate
Create Navisworks data from Plant3D data
Search using various criteria combining search items
Display of information list for selected objects and CSV output (Selector Inspector function)
Interference check using Navisworks Manage (identifying interference items and outputting reports)
Allows appropriate setting of interference check items and conditions (selecting target objects, setting clearances, etc.)
Viewpoint and Comment Creation/Management
(Practical experience in project development, welding, BQ, and progress visualization)
Abilities
Ability to effectively communicate and coordinate with cross-functional stakeholders
(customers, design teams, and subcontractors)
Ability to prioritize tasks and work proactively.
Ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
Basic conversational Japanese skills preferred
Qualifications
Education & Work Experience
Required Qualifications
