BIM Plumbing Designer

As a BIM Plumbing Designer (internal title: BIM Coordinator) at a Modigent operating company, you will create, manage, and coordinate detailed 3D BIM models for commercial plumbing systems. You will produce accurate shop drawings and fabrication-ready models, perform clash detection, and collaborate closely with engineers, project managers, and field teams to ensure clash-free, constructible designs. This role bridges office planning and on-site execution and offers the opportunity to mentor less experienced BIM team members while contributing to continuous improvement of BIM standards and workflows.

• Develop detailed 3D models of plumbing systems from engineered drawings with minimal supervision using Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, and related tools.
• Produce shop drawings, spool drawings, and fabrication-ready models to support prefabrication and field installation.
• Perform clash detection and interference checks; generate reports and collaborate with project teams to resolve spatial conflicts before construction.
• Participate in real-time coordination meetings and maintain clear project documentation on company servers or client platforms (Bluebeam, Procore, etc.).
• Support field teams by providing digital construction layouts for tools such as Trimble robotic total stations and mobile applications.
• Adhere to and help develop company BIM standards, workflows, and templates; contribute to continuous process improvement.
• Assist engineers and estimators with conceptual designs, cost estimates, and design-build deliverables as needed.
• Mentor and support less experienced BIM Designers, sharing knowledge and best practices.
• Report to the BIM Manager and collaborate effectively across design, project management, and field teams.

May provide informal mentoring and guidance to less experienced BIM Designers. No formal direct reports.
