BIM Modeler

The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship.

The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more. The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening. Below, you will find a complete breakdown of everything required of potential candidates, as well as how to apply Good luck. As BIM Modeler for Instrumentation & Controls, you'll own the controls and instrumentation systems model on Giga Energy's AI data center projects — sensor networks, control systems architecture, cable and conduit routing, control panels, I/O locations, and all the hardware that monitors and manages facility operations. You'll model in Revit and work in AutoCAD, because both matter here: our federated model lives in Revit, but controls documentation and partner deliverables often come as CAD, and someone has to make those two worlds agree. That translation is a core part of the job, not an afterthought. You'll also be building the controls side of our BIM capability rather than maintaining someone else's — the families, templates, and standards you create are the ones Giga will use on the next campus. Expect to coordinate directly with our Controls Engineers, electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, IT/commissioning teams, and the crews on site, resolving cable routing conflicts before they hit the field and verifying sensor locations against equipment general arrangements before installation. It's a hands-on, high-volume role for someone who wants real ownership and is energized by a fast pace rather than worn down by it. Where you'll work We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our Houston, Long Beach, or San Francisco offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays. Some travel to active project sites should be expected. That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works.

Responsibilities: Create Models for instrumentation and controls systems in Revit and AutoCAD Plant 3D across active projects: sensor layouts, I/O cabinets, control panels, networking equipment, cable tray and conduit routing, and all field device locations Model cable tray, conduit runs, and cable routing for controls systems; coordinate conduit sizing and routing against electrical, mechanical, and structural scopes to avoid conflicts before the build Model control panels, junction boxes, disconnect switches, and cabinet locations to ensure accessibility and proper integration with adjacent systems Convert incoming AutoCAD controls drawings, P&IDs, electrical schematics, and partner controls documentation into native Revit geometry; produce CAD deliverables back out where partners or AHJs require them. Maintain the controls model within the federated model set per the Giga BIM Execution Plan, including worksets, links, shared coordinates, and model discipline Participate in and run clash detection cycles in Navisworks, resolving controls-side conflicts (conduit vs. structural, sensors vs. mechanical equipment, etc.) rather than only reporting them Raise and track model change requests so revisions are controlled and stale geometry never reaches a bidder, controls contractor, or site crew Produce controls drawings, system layout plans, instrumentation and I/O location plans, cable routing schedules, conduit and tray schedules, control panel layouts, and sensor/device schedules. Generate model-based quantity takeoffs for cable, conduit, sensors, panels, and controls hardware to support procurement and estimating Build and maintain the parametric Revit family library for repeatable controls content sensor types, control panels, cable tray sections, conduit supports, I/O cabinet types so the next project starts from validated content Familiarity with Template and Modular designs strategies and Processes Contribute to controls model templates, view standards, shared parameters, and naming conventions under the BIM Lead Support commissioning and startup teams with as-built documentation, final layouts, and system verification against the model Maintain as-built model updates from field markups, installation photos, and site feedback Mentor junior drafters and review their controls output before it is released
