We are seeking Senior Geospatial 3D Modeling Engineers – LiDAR to lead high-precision 3D reconstruction and analysis of complex infrastructure assets. This role is ideal for professionals who specialize in converting LiDAR point cloud data into engineering-grade models and insights that support planning, assessment, and lifecycle management of large-scale civil and structural systems.
You will play a critical role in transforming raw spatial data into accurate digital representations used across infrastructure, transportation, and structural engineering projects.
Key Responsibilities
LiDAR Processing & 3D Reconstruction
Process large-scale LiDAR point cloud datasets to generate accurate 3D representations of terrain, bridges, buildings, and transportation networks.
Develop high-fidelity surface models, solid models, and detailed mesh outputs suitable for engineering analysis and visualization.
Perform noise filtering, classification, and segmentation to ensure data quality and usability.
Infrastructure & Structural Modeling
Convert point cloud data into engineering-ready models, drawings, and deliverables aligned with civil and structural standards.
Create detailed digital models for bridge components and other complex structural assets, supporting inspection, analysis, and retrofit planning.
Collaborate with structural and civil engineers to align models with design intent and analytical requirements.
Analysis, Documentation & Reporting
Analyze LiDAR-derived models to extract measurements, profiles, and condition insights for infrastructure assessments.
Prepare technical documentation and reports tailored for engineering, planning, and decision-making audiences.
Ensure all deliverables meet accuracy thresholds, quality benchmarks, and project specifications.
Tools, Standards & Quality Assurance
Work with CAD, BIM, and civil engineering platforms to integrate LiDAR outputs into downstream workflows.
Maintain modeling standards, version control, and quality assurance practices across projects.
Contribute to the improvement of internal workflows, automation, and best practices for LiDAR-based modeling.
Required Experience & Expertise
5+ years of hands-on experience in LiDAR data processing, analysis, and 3D modeling for infrastructure or civil projects.
Strong experience developing detailed mesh and surface models from point cloud data.
Solid understanding of bridge structures and large-scale civil assets from an engineering perspective.
Proficiency in tools such as AutoCAD, Revit, and civil engineering or geospatial modeling software.
Demonstrated ability to translate spatial data into engineering-grade models and technical reports.
Nice to Have
Experience with Scan-to-BIM workflows and BIM-based asset modeling.
Exposure to large transportation, urban infrastructure, or public works projects.
Familiarity with automation, scripting, or optimization of LiDAR processing pipelines.
