Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced
Project Manager – Geometry

You will manage geometry-driven workflows, coordinate multidisciplinary teams, and provide technical leadership throughout the lifecycle of steel and bridge projects. Your expertise will bridge the gap between engineering design and fabrication requirements, enabling efficient production and successful onsite execution.

What You'll Do:

Geometry & Technical Leadership

  • Lead geometric modeling activities for steel and bridge projects, with a focus on complex geometry such as curved alignments, skews, cambers, deflections, and variable structural profiles.
  • Interpret architectural and structural engineering drawings, project specifications, design reports, and digital models to define geometric requirements.
  • Develop and oversee highly detailed 3D models using Tekla Structures (preferred) or equivalent steel-detailing software.
  • Ensure geometric accuracy and constructability across all modelled components, including primary/secondary steel, connection interfaces, plates, welds, bolts, and erection assemblies.
  • Produce fabrication-ready documentation, including shop drawings, erection drawings, bills of material (BoMs), cutting lists, bolt and weld schedules.
  • Lead technical coordination with engineers, fabricators, erectors, architects, and project stakeholders to validate geometry and resolve technical issues.

Project & Stakeholder Management

  • Manage project planning, resourcing, deliverables, timelines, and reporting for geometry-related scopes.
  • Identify and mitigate geometry-related risks, issues, and design discrepancies.
  • Drive proactive communication with internal and external stakeholders to ensure alignment on project objectives, technical requirements, and change management.
  • Maintain project controls, including schedules, variation tracking, milestone reporting, and geometric accuracy metrics.
  • Support tender proposals, client presentations, and consulting reports as required.

Quality & Continuous Improvement

  • Review and approve geometry models and deliverables prepared by team members.
  • Uphold DBM Vircon's quality standards, modelling protocols, and digital engineering best practices.
  • Mentor and guide modelers and detailers, building internal capability in geometry execution and digital project delivery.

What You'll Bring:

Technical Expertise

  • Demonstrated experience performing geometry for construction projects, especially bridge structures and complex steel infrastructure.
  • Strong knowledge of structural geometry, including curves, skews, cambers, slopes, transitions, and fabrication constraints.
  • Advanced proficiency in
    Tekla Structures
    (highly preferred) and strong capability with other CAD/BIM tools such as AutoCAD, Revit, ProSteel, or similar.
  • Ability to translate engineering designs into detailed, fabrication-ready 3D models and technical drawings.
  • Excellent understanding of steel fabrication, erection processes, and industry codes/standards.

Professional Experience

  • 10 years of experience in structural geometry, steel detailing, digital engineering, or related technical fields.
  • Proven experience leading or managing geometry-driven scopes on large-scale infrastructure or bridge projects.
  • Experience coordinating with engineers, clients, fabricators, and multidisciplinary project teams.

Skills & Capabilities

  • Strong project management and organizational skills.
  • Exceptional attention to detail, accuracy, and quality.
  • Ability to problem-solve complex geometric challenges.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfortable leading teams, providing direction, and driving accountability.

Education

  • Diploma or degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Computational/Mathematical Engineering, or related discipline.
  • Project Management training or certifications are an asset.
  • Additional coursework in geometric modeling or bridge detailing is considered an advantage.
