BIM Designer

ABOUT THE ROLE:

Join the High Power Engineering team supporting xAI to design, build, operate, and maintain electrical infrastructure for AI training campuses. As a BIM/Designer on the Data Center team, you will work with a small on-site team to scale high-capacity power systems on a schedule set by compute demand. The position is based in Memphis, TN, with potential travel to other sites.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Own drawing standards, revision control, the equipment tag register, and the as-built process for Data Center electrical packages, published so Transmission & Distribution and Battery Storage can follow the same conventions. 
• Produce and maintain BIM and CAD models: equipment families, raceway, cable tray, busway, and coordinated 3D layouts against mechanical and structural models.
• Run clash detection and issue coordination reports before packages go to construction.
• Maintain the master document list and configuration control across repeated hall packages.
• Support Design Engineers with plan, section, and isometric production from the model of record.
• Capture as-built markups from commissioning and field engineering and close them into the operating record.
• Enforce a single tagging scheme across pillars so protection, studies, and operations are looking at the same equipment IDs.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Associate's or bachelor's degree in engineering, drafting, or a related technical discipline, or 4+ years of BIM/CAD production experience in lieu of a degree.
• 3+ years producing electrical or multi-discipline BIM/CAD packages for industrial, data center, or utility projects.

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Revit, Navisworks, and AutoCAD experience on electrical distribution packages.
• Experience owning drawing standards and revision control for a multi-phase campus.
• Familiarity with NEC equipment identification and one-line conventions.
• Experience coordinating electrical models against mechanical (CDU, piping) and structural models.
• Laser-scan or as-built survey experience.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Strong organizational skills to prioritize, schedule, and implement solutions with minimal operational impact.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

• Perform hands-on work in all environments (heat, cold, rain), in tight quarters or at heights.
• Work extended hours and weekends as needed to support construction, energization, and operations.
• Remain focused in hazardous environments while wearing appropriate PPE.
• Lift up to 25 lbs. unassisted.
• Provide 24/7 on-call support for emergencies.
• Willing to work on-site in Memphis, TN. This is not a remote or hybrid role.
• Travel up to 25% for factory witness testing, vendor and OEM engagement, and supporting other sites.
• Valid driver's license.
