JLRD, Inc · Merritt Island, Florida
JLRD, Inc. is a Florida-based MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) and fire protection consulting engineering firm founded in 1991. Headquartered in West Palm Beach with offices in Merritt Island, Jacksonville, and Tampa, JLRD delivers all four engineering disciplines in-house across healthcare, education, government, federal, aviation, utilities and infrastructure, commercial and mixed-use, hospitality, residential, and mission-critical facilities.
We are privately owned and engineering-led. We compete on technical depth, not scale, and we build teams accordingly.
We design mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, low-voltage, and controls systems for healthcare, education, government, federal, aviation, and commercial clients, and we stay involved from design through construction.
ABOUT THE ROLE
The BIM Manager owns how JLRD models, coordinates, and produces drawings. This is not a drafting seat. You set the standards, run the tools, lead the production team, and keep every model that leaves the building coordinated, current, and constructible. Engineers, project managers, and our construction administration team rely on you to know where every model stands and what it needs next.
Position is based in West Palm Beach, or Merritt Island, Florida. On-site.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
STANDARDS AND PROCESS
Own and maintain JLRD's BIM standards: Revit templates, families, view templates, sheet standards, naming conventions, and the BIM SOP.
Enforce one model per job number, with consistent setup, worksharing, and file structure across all four offices.
Write and maintain BIM Execution Plans for projects that require them, including federal and owner-specific BIM requirements.
Define model quality checks and run them before every milestone submission: SD, DD, CD, permit, and conformed sets.
COORDINATION AND DELIVERY
Lead MEP/FP model coordination with architects, structural engineers, and contractors, including clash detection in Navisworks and issue tracking through closure.
Manage cloud collaboration in Autodesk Construction Cloud / BIM 360, including permissions, model links, and publishing.
Support construction administration with current conformed sets and a clear record of what was issued and when.
Keep BIM status current on the firm's active project schedule so leadership can see model health, milestones, and gaps at a glance.
PEOPLE
Lead, schedule, and develop the BIM production team, including the BIM Coordinator, with workload balanced across offices and projects.
Build a training plan so every modeler meets a defined skill baseline, and onboard new production staff to JLRD standards.
Serve as the first point of contact for engineers and PMs on modeling questions, so issues get solved before they become rework.
TECHNOLOGY
Administer Autodesk licensing with IT: seat assignment, utilization review, and renewal input.
Identify, evaluate, and implement BIM automation tools, including Dynamo and Revit add-ins, to streamline design workflows, reduce repetitive tasks, and improve production efficiency. Measure their effectiveness by tracking time saved and productivity improvements.
Track where production hours go and bring forward specific fixes for recurring rework.
Evaluate IT hardware requirements and recommend appropriate solutions for implementation.
Your First 90 Days
Day 30
Audit every active model against the BIM tracker, fill the gaps, and name the top risks to upcoming deadlines. Meet each Department Lead and the construction administration team.
Day 60
Publish updated templates and a current BIM SOP. Set a weekly coordination and QA rhythm the team runs without reminders.
Day 90
Deliver a training plan and skill baseline for the production team, a license utilization review with IT, and a costed recommendation on automation priorities.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
5+ years of Revit/BIM production on MEP and/or fire protection projects.
3+ years leading BIM for a firm or major projects: owning standards and directly supervising modelers or BIM coordinators.
Expert-level Revit MEP: templates, families, worksharing, linked models, and sheet production.
Hands-on clash detection and coordination in Navisworks Manage, including running coordination meetings with outside teams.
Experience writing and executing BIM Execution Plans and meeting owner-defined BIM requirements.
Track record of setting a written standard and holding a team to it, including hiring input, training, and performance feedback.
Strong understanding of how MEP/FP systems are designed and installed, so you can spot a problem in the model before the field does.
Communicate clearly and directly in writing, and proactively provide timely status updates.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Experience with Dynamo scripting or the Revit API, with demonstrated success in automating tasks and reducing production time.
Autodesk licensing administration and utilization reporting.
Autodesk Certified Professional (Revit for MEP) or equivalent credential.
Associate's or bachelor's degree in engineering, engineering technology, or architecture, or equivalent experience.
