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.

Site / Surveying Engineer (Using Augmented Reality)

As a Site 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

  • 2+ years relevant work experience in a field engineer or surveying role, ideally using a total station or laser scanners etc 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

Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on 40-hour week
  • 25 days annual leave + public holidays
