3D Modeling Specialist

3D MODELING SPECIALISTTurn 3D Point Clouds into Engineering-Ready Pole ModelsWhy this RoleEncepta is growing We're building a new, cutting-edge capability to transform 3D point cloud data into high-quality pole models that power telecom infrastructure projects across Canada. This role is ideal for someone who loves quiet, focused work where accuracy matters, and gets real satisfaction from turning messy real-world data into clean, consistent models.We're intentionally making this role student / new-grad friendly. If you're smart, coachable, and detail-oriented, we'll provide the training, tools, and support to help you succeed—no prior telecom experience required.What You'll Be Responsible ForReporting to our Manager, Operations, you'll work closely with fielding teams, GIS specialists, and engineering partners to convert point cloud outputs into reliable, analysis-ready models. Your responsibilities will include:Process, validate, and clean 3D point cloud feature extraction outputs using point cloud / mapping tools (including ArcGIS)Normalize attributes, resolve geometry issues, and follow standard workflows and checklistsBuild base pole models in SpidaCalc (and supporting tools), applying standard client settings and initial sanity checksFlag missing or inconsistent data and coordinate with fielding/design teammates to correct issues upstreamDocument anomalies and contribute ideas to improve our workflows as this capability scalesParticipate in regular team reviews focused on quality, consistency, and continuous improvementReality check (so you can self-select): This role is high screen-time and high repetition by design—often 80–90% of your day is focused modelling work (clicking/validating point-by-point, pole-by-pole). If that sounds satisfying, you'll thrive here.What Success Looks LikeWithin your first 12–18 months, you'll be:Producing consistent, accurate models that downstream pole loading analysis and design teams can trustHitting clear quality standards (low rework, strong validation habits, clean documentation)Improving your speed and consistency over time—supported by coaching, reviews, and structured trainingContributing practical feedback that makes the process faster, clearer, and more scalableWhat We're Looking ForNew grads and co-op students (4+ months) are welcome. This can be a first job.Located in the Greater Vancouver area (required)Comfortable with long stretches of focused computer work and detailed, repeatable tasksClear communicator who flags issues early and asks good questionsBackground (or current studies) in a technical discipline such as engineering technology, CAD/drafting, civil/mechanical, geomatics, computer science, or similarCuriosity and the ability to learn new software tools quicklyNice to have (not required): ArcGIS exposure, point clouds / 3D data, SpidaCalc (or similar), basic scripting/automation mindset.What's In It for YOU?We know that when you grow, we grow. That's why we offer more than just a job, we offer a launchpad for your career:Structured onboarding + training: videos, guided examples, practice datasets, and checklistsHands-on support: buddy/mentor, daily check-ins early on, and weekly quality reviewsTools provided: laptop, software access, and training materialsClear path to hybrid/remote: start in-office for ~4 weeks at our Burnaby HQ to ramp up, then hybrid/remote options based on readinessGrowth paths (based on your interests):Senior Modeling SpecialistPole Loading Analysis / Structural Modeling pathwayTelecom Design roleTelecom Drafting roleProject Coordinator → Project LeadAbout EnceptaEncepta is a fast-growing Canadian company offering infrastructure planning, design, and data collection services for telecommunications, utilities, and municipalities.
