Surveyor / Field Engineer
XYZ Reality
This is an ON-SITE role working on large scale construction projects. The initial project is a scheme in the Columbus, Ohio area and will last c. 6 months. Subsequent projects after this assignment may be in the same area, or there could be others in another location or state, so some flexibility on travel/relocation in future would be beneficial if possible.
The position revolves around using our Augmented Reality device, the ATOM. You'll use this for on-site Layout support, Quality Assurance Inspections and Progress Reporting for construction installations (Civil, Structural, Mechanical & Electrical), using XYZ's Augmented Reality technology, the Atom. The ATOM enables the user to view 3D BIM/Design models as holograms/overlays/projections through its visor, alongside the live environment around them, for absolute objectivity and efficiency. You do not necessarily need prior experience in CSA or MEP - we predominantly train people from a Land Surveying background.
Introduction to XYZ
XYZ Reality are the creators of the world's first and only engineering-grade Augmented Reality solution, purpose built for the construction industry. Not only have we created this holographic technology, that sits within The Atom – a smart, site-safe headset/hardhat - but we implement it on projects, utilising the power of AR to ensure that all schemes are completed in line with the delivery timescales and budgets.
XYZ has grown to over 100 staff across the UK, US & Europe and is working with Mission Critical organisations & construction companies to successfully deliver major projects.
Field / Surveying Engineer (Using Augmented Reality)
As an Engineer / Surveyor at XYZ, you'll be wearing the Atom and using it to eliminate construction and design errors on site, which would otherwise lead to costly and time-consuming rework. You'll visualise the design models in holograms through the visor, and provide regular updates of potential clashes/errors in what has been, or is to be, installed by verifying what you're seeing in front of you.
Key Responsibilities
Conducting daily site inspections using the Atom (Augmented Reality headset) to ensure works are installed/being installed correctly, as per the BIM Model.
Using a total station to set / traverse control points
Client communication and reporting
Producing reports based on the inspections from that day.
Attending meetings to coordinate with contractors to plan daily activities.
Processing and reviewing all acquired data to ensure it is accurate and reliable.
Reporting to the Field Operations Manager, maintaining an efficient workflow and ensuring all requested inspections are conducted within the specified time frame.
Working with the Contractor to devise a weekly lookahead of inspections in line with the master construction programme in order to de-risk incorrect installation from taking place in the field.
Obtaining and preparing the latest approved Revit models to export into HoloSite
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
1+ years relevant work experience in a field engineer or surveying role, ideally using a total station or laser scanners in your work
A qualification in construction, land surveying, civil engineering, geospatial or geodetic engineering would be preferred but isn’t essential
A strong work ethic, ambition and interest in new technology
Any knowledge related to 3D software (Revit, Navisworks etc) or BIM / BIM360 is desirable but not essential and can be taught
Must be confident in using Microsoft Office
Essential: You must have a clean criminal record and be willing to undergo background checks and drugs tests due to security requirements of the projects we work on
