Job Description

In this role, you will convert P&IDs, design documents, and engineering intent into highly accurate pipe fabrication drawings, assembly sheets, spool drawings, and coordinated bill of materials. This role primarily focuses on industrial projects such as water/wastewater, manufacturing and mission critical.

Job Responsibilities:

Translate P&IDs, process schematics, and design drawings into detailed fabrication-ready pipe models. Produce spool sheets, cut lists, bill of materials, and fabrication isometrics with clear labeling
Coordinate pipe routing and supports with structural, equipment, and other trades
Interpret engineering specifications, material standards, valve schedules, and QA/QC requirements
Review and integrate vendor drawings, equipment submittals, and field markups
Collaborate with Project Managers, field superintendents, fabrication shops, and the VDC team
Maintain model accuracy through project lifecycle changes and revisions
Support the development of internal standards, templates, and best practices for fabrication detailing
Assist other self-perform detailing scopes as needed (steel embeds, equipment layouts, skids, etc.)
Support other VDC service offerings as needed:
- Visualization – Renderings, animations, 4D schedule simulations, virtual reality
- 3D Modeling – scan-to-BIM, construction detailing for trades and self-perform
- Coordination – BIM coordination / clash detection between design disciplines, trade subcontractors, consultants, equipment vendors; coordination overlay drawings for overhead coordination, underground utilities, concrete, etc.
- Estimating – model-based quantity takeoff of BIM design & construction models, field progress tracking, Power BI dashboarding, etc.
- Laser Scanning – reality capture (laser scanning) of existing conditions for design and construction teams, including deviation analysis, and 360 photo viewing solutions
- Digital Layout – survey stake-out and as-built reporting to support self-perform, and quality control of subcontractor installations
- Drone – aerial survey / mapping of topography, overlays, and photo/video deliverables, for design team, construction teams, and marketing needs
- SUE – subsurface utility engineering, with GPR & EM locates, combined with hydrovac excavation to identify existing utilities
Research and implement new innovative solutions to improve efficiencies
Travel as required
Other duties which may be assigned as needed

Education & Years of Experience:

Minimum of a two-year Associate’s Degree in a CAD/BIM-related specialization such as Construction Management, Drafting Technology, Architecture, or Mechanical/Civil Engineering. 0–3 years of relevant experience in AEC industry pipe detailing

To thrive in this role, you'll need:

Demonstrated experience with Mechanical, Plumbing, or Process Mechanical piping design (or subcontractor detailing preferred)
Experience with Water/Wastewater, Food & Beverage, Beer/Wine/Spirits, Data Centers/Mission Critical/Manufacturing project types
Proficiency with BIM (Revit and AutoCAD Plant3D) is required, along with exposure to reality capture, drone, survey and layout applications is preferred
Understanding of project workflows (schematic design, design development, construction documentation phases) and project management
Understanding of different needs of the delivery team (architects, engineers, estimators, project managers, and field staff)
Strong understanding of piping materials (PVC, HDPE, ductile iron, stainless, carbon steel, grooved, flanged)
Ability to read and interpret P&IDs, process flow diagrams, civil/site plans, and structural drawings
Clear understanding of fabrication sequencing, field installation constraints, and as-built workflows
Strong communication skills and the ability to work with distributed teams
High attention to detail, accuracy, and model organization
Experience with wastewater or water treatment process piping
Experience generating shop drawings for self-perform crews
Familiarity with Navisworks and clash coordination
Experience with BIM/VDC workflows, naming standards, and worksharing
Understanding of pressure classes, valve actuation, pump connections, and equipment tie-ins
Fabrication shop or field installation experience

At Haskell, we offer a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, retirement plans, professional development opportunities, and more. Join us and be part of a team where your contributions make a difference.

Salary Range: The base salary range for this position is $70,000-$125,000. The actual salary will be determined based on the candidate’s knowledge, skills, experience, and location.
