Industrialised Design and Construction (IDC) Technical Specialist

Description

Building the IDC Framework

Reporting to the Head of Industrialised Design & Construction, the role works collaboratively with project teams and the Digital Innovation and BIM departments. The emphasis is on technical development, construction knowledge, supply-chain-aware design, and integration of data-rich components, rather than ownership of BIM standards or governance, which remain within the BIM department.

• Contribute to the development of a scalable “kit of parts” usable across multiple building typologies.
• Develop intelligent model components, parametric assemblies, and programmable workflows that support design standardisation and efficient technical delivery in alignment with the Group BIM Standards and Systems.
• Support the application of industrialised design principles across low-rise, medium-density, and high-density residential schemes initially, assisting project teams in implementing structured, repeatable workflows.
• Embed structured datasets related to embodied carbon, material efficiency, and environmental performance into model components, enabling early carbon assessment and optimisation.
• Contribute to our R&D partnerships, supporting industry and academic collaborations in areas such as MMC, low-carbon design, and automation in construction.
• Integrate manufacturing, logistics, and installation data into digital models to support construction sequencing and supply-chain planning.
• Strengthen a scalable IDC methodology that aligns with supply-chain capacity, procurement constraints, and emerging national/EU policy.
• Work closely with the BIM Department to ensure all digital content and workflows align with existing BIM standards, while maintaining clear separation between IDC systems development and BIM governance.
• Collaborate with Digital Innovation on the development of automation tools, data structures, and cross-platform integrations.
• Develop construction-ready detailing informed by manufacturing constraints, logistics strategies, sequencing requirements, and MMC considerations.
• Support documentation of repeatable processes, lessons learned, and industrialised workflows for future rollout across other sectors such as education, healthcare, commercial, and data centres.

Requirements

Role can be accommodated in any of our Offices - Dublin, Limerick, Belfast, London, Lisbon

• Understanding of construction detailing, offsite manufacturing, procurement pathways, and sequencing/logistics constraints.
• Strong competency in automation scripting, computational logic, and data-driven modelling.
• Working knowledge of carbon assessment methods and material-performance metrics.
• Prototype automation tools (Dynamo, Python or equivalent) to streamline repetitive tasks, drawing generation, schedules, and data extraction.
• Strong communication skills and an ability to work with multidisciplinary teams.
• Familiarity with Lean methodologies, industrialised workflows, or modern methods of construction.
• 5+ years of experience in Revit-centric technical roles within architecture, construction, engineering, or DfMA/MCC environments.
