Job Summary

QLM is hiring a VDC Manager for our client in Lubbock. You'll lead the Virtual Design and Construction work for HVAC and plumbing, and you'll still do hands-on modeling. You'll manage a team of two VDC Specialists and run clash coordination on complex projects, including healthcare and data center work, usually valued at $5M and up. Your models go straight to the sheet metal fabrication shop and to our field crews, so your work shapes how we build. About 25% of our projects are design-build, which gives you a real voice early in the design.

Benefits

Benefits Offered: Medical Insurance | Dental Insurance | Vision Insurance | Paid Time Off | 401k | Safety bucks program!

Pay Range

$110k-$140K per year

What You'll Do

• Lead and mentor a team of 2 VDC Specialists, including assigning work, setting priorities and maintaining quality standards
• Model HVAC and plumbing systems hands-on in Revit, Navisworks and AutoCAD
• Own and run clash coordination meetings with GCs, design teams and other trades, mostly over Teams or Zoom
• Produce fabrication-ready models and output for our in-house sheet metal shop
• Support field layout with Robotic Total Stations and Trimble Field Points
• Contribute to design-build projects from early design through installation
• Keep VDC standards, workflows and best practices consistent across projects

What We're Looking For

• 3-5+ years of VDC management experience (5+ preferred)
• Strong skills in Revit, Navisworks and AutoCAD
• HVAC and plumbing modeling experience (plumbing strongly preferred)
• VDC experience with an MEP subcontractor or a general contractor
• Experience leading clash detection and coordination meetings
• Ability to balance managing people with doing your own modeling
• Healthcare or data center experience is a plus

Note: Candidates whose VDC experience is electrical only won't be a fit for this role.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base Salary: $110,000 - $140,000, based on experience
• Bonus: Discretionary, based on company profit
• Relocation: Negotiable
• Health Insurance: Medical, dental and vision, starting the 1st of the month after 60 days
• 401(k): 25% company match on contributions up to 15%
• Paid Time Off: 2 weeks vacation, 1 week personal time and 6 paid holidays
• Supplemental Coverage: Aflac, short-term disability, accident and life insurance, portable at the group rate

Work Environment
