About the role
BIM Specialist to lead modeling, integration and coordination of electrical systems for Starship and Super Heavy Booster tooling systems and facilities infrastructure, acting as a key technical resource throughout the project lifecycle.
Responsibilities
- Develop, maintain, and upgrade detailed 3D BIM models of electrical systems (power distribution, control systems, data acquisition, wire harnesses, routing, cable management, hardware mounting, and equipment placement) using Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, or NX
- Own, draft, redline, and maintain electrical schematics, single-line diagrams, panel layouts and prepare related documentation while coordinating 3D model placement of electrical systems with the system Responsible Engineers
- Integrate electrical systems with architectural, structural, mechanical, plumbing (MEP), and other disciplines for Starship facilities and production tooling; lead coordination of electrical systems into living facility models, owning end-to-end integration and electrical documentation ownership
- Generate construction documents, quantity takeoffs, visualizations, and as-built drawings from BIM models to support bidding, procurement, on-site execution, and long-term reliability improvements for electrical infrastructure and production systems
- Act as a liaison between project stakeholders, internal tooling teams, production leadership, responsible engineers, internal design and construction teams, and third-party consultants throughout the project life cycle
- Perform clash detection, model coordination, and constructability reviews focused on electrical systems to identify and resolve conflicts early in design and construction phases
- Support the development and maintenance of SpaceX BIM standards, protocols, and workflows for electrical infrastructure; act as the primary technical resource for electrical BIM issues
- Lead transition of electrical BIM workflows (including data migration, process documentation, and training); actively drive continuous improvements and optimizations for team processes, quality improvements, faster build times, lower maintenance, project kitting, communication, and feedback loops
- Support review and interpretation of power system studies, field data, and electromechanical integration; perform daily task prioritization and risk mitigation; participate in cross-functional meetings providing electrical BIM expertise to inform design decisions
- Perform other related duties as assigned to ensure an efficient and effective work environment
