Designer, Engineering Design & Technologists, Systems Engineer

Thornton Tomasetti applies engineering and scientific principles to solve the world’s challenges. An independent organization of creative thinkers and innovative doers collaborating from offices worldwide, our mission is to bring our clients' ideas to life and, in the process, lay the groundwork for a better, more resilient future. We provide support and opportunities to our employees to achieve their full potential and cultivate a rewarding career.

We are seeking an entry‑level Revit modeler who is passionate about modeling and visualization to support electronic security, IT/Telecom, and AV drawing production. The ideal candidate brings hands‑on Revit experience, enthusiasm for developing innovative workflows, and an interest in learning the technical aspects of the systems they model through close collaboration with our engineers and consultants. Our team includes people from a variety of architectural, engineering, law‑enforcement and other security backgrounds who work together on a wide range of project types including education facilities, office buildings, transit infrastructure, and sports venues.

You’ll join a team that is continuously learning and adapting as we perform risk assessments and advise clients on improving the safety and security of their facilities. Join our growing team that works to keep people safe from security threats in the built environment.

• Produce coordinated Revit models and drawing sets for electronic security (e.g., access control, video surveillance), IT/Telecom (e.g., MDF/IDF layouts, backbone and pathway systems), and AV systems.
• Create device layouts, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, risers/single‑line diagrams, schedules, and annotated sheets conforming to TT standards.
• Develop and maintain Revit families, view/sheet templates, filters, and project standards to enhance drawing quality and consistency.
• Manage BIM workflows including model setup, links/coordinates, worksets, and sheet organization; support QA/QC of models and deliverables.
• Collaborate daily with PD&S engineers, architects, and other disciplines to incorporate design direction and resolve coordination issues; support multidisciplinary coordination and clash resolution.
• Assist with visualization tasks, including 3D views, diagrams, and presentation graphics for internal and client use.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by piloting and documenting efficient modeling and documentation practices; interest in light scripting/automation (e.g., Dynamo, Grasshopper) is a plus.
• Participate in internal knowledge‑sharing sessions and on‑the‑job learning to build technical understanding of security, telecom, and AV systems.
• Participate in the development of next‑generation visualization solutions.

• Associate’s or bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Architectural Technology, Drafting/Design, Engineering Technology, Interior Architecture, or a closely related field; an Architecture background is desirable.
• Demonstrated proficiency with Autodesk Revit for building systems modeling and drawing production; foundational skills in family creation and sheet setup.
• Familiarity with construction documents, drawing conventions, and coordination with other disciplines; strong graphic and written communication skills.
• Working knowledge of Bluebeam; exposure to Navisworks, Dynamo, and ACC/BIM 360 is a plus.
• Passion for modeling and visualization, with a strong attention to detail, organization, and documentation quality.
• Ability to manage priorities, meet deadlines, and contribute positively in a collaborative environment.
• Eligibility to obtain and maintain U.S. security clearance.
