Construction Technology Manager at Loenbro, LLC | LAYIQ

Layout Program Ownership
· Own the construction layout function company-wide: procedures, accuracy standards, tolerances, deliverable formats, and documentation requirements.
· Establish and enforce control network standards — primary and secondary control, benchmark protocols, network adjustment, and verification intervals.
· Define QA/QC for layout: independent check procedures, tolerance verification, error budgets, and what gets escalated when a check fails.
· Build the layout request and scheduling process so project teams get support when they need it rather than competing for it.
Team Leadership & Development
· Lead, schedule, and develop a distributed team of field layout technicians and layout engineers across multiple regions.
· Forecast layout labor demand against the project pipeline; staff projects and resolve conflicts across competing schedules.
· Build the training program: instrument operation, control theory, model-based workflows, safety, and field documentation.
· Conduct performance reviews, set development paths, and grow the bench so the function scales with the business.
Field Layout Execution
· Personally lead layout on high-risk, high-complexity, or first-of-kind work: tight-tolerance equipment setting, anchor bolt and embed layout, structural steel, underground utilities, and process piping tie-ins.
· Execute and oversee model-based layout using robotic total stations, GNSS/GPS rovers, and digital levels.
· Direct existing-conditions capture with 3D laser scanning; manage registration, point cloud QA, and scan-to-BIM deliverables.
· Perform and oversee as-built verification — scan-vs-model comparison, deviation reporting, and clash identification before fabrication release.
· Locate and verify subsurface and concealed utilities using GPR and related methods; coordinate with utility locates and site safety requirements.
Model-to-Field Coordination
· Serve as the link between BIM/VDC and field execution: validate that models are layout-ready and that coordinates, datums, and site orientation are correct before points are ever pulled.
· Manage coordinate systems, datum control, and site calibration across disciplines and trade partners.
· Extract, name, and manage layout point data; maintain revision discipline so crews are never working from a superseded set.
· Feed field-verified conditions back into the model so downstream design and fabrication reflect reality.
· Coordinate layout deliverables with detailers, fabricators, engineers, and subcontractor layout crews.
Technology & Equipment
· Own the layout equipment fleet: selection, procurement, assignment, calibration schedules, service, and replacement planning.
· Evaluate and pilot new layout and reality-capture technology; make the build/buy/rent recommendations.
· Administer layout software platforms and field data workflows; manage licensing and user access.
· Maintain vendor and service relationships for instruments, software, and calibration.
Safety & Compliance
· Champion Loenbro's safety culture; ensure every technician is trained and compliant on every site they enter.
· Ensure layout work meets OSHA, client site, and applicable code and standards requirements.
· Maintain the documentation trail that supports as-built certification and closeout.
Required Qualifications
· 8+ years of construction layout, field engineering, or construction surveying experience, including 3+ years leading or supervising layout personnel.
· Expert-level operation of robotic total stations and GNSS/GPS equipment in an active construction environment.
· Demonstrated ability to establish, adjust, and maintain construction control networks and to work confidently with coordinate systems and datums.
· Hands-on model-based layout experience — pulling points from a 3D model and putting them on the ground accurately.
· Working command of BIM coordination and how layout fits into the broader VDC workflow.
· Experience with 3D laser scanning and scan-to-BIM: field capture, registration, point cloud QA, and as-built comparison.
· Track record in industrial retrofit work in live, operating facilities where as-builts are unreliable and shutdown windows are short.
· Proven experience managing distributed field personnel across multiple sites or states.
· Strong command of MEP systems, power distribution, structural, and process piping enough to understand what you are laying out and why the tolerance matters.
· Valid driver's license and acceptable MVR; ability to pass client site background, drug, and safety screening.
· Ability to travel 60–75% and to work on active industrial sites — elevated work areas, confined spaces, uneven terrain, extended standing and walking, and full PPE.
· Associate's or Bachelor's degree in construction management, surveying, civil engineering, or related field — or equivalent demonstrated experience. We weight track record over transcript.
