• Ensure all BIM deliverables comply with internal standards, project specifications, fabrication requirements, and schedules.
• Coordinate and manage clash detection processes using Navisworks Manage and related tools.
• Review and interpret construction documents, specifications, and mechanical piping isometrics to guide coordination and modeling.
• Support constructability reviews by identifying and resolving potential conflicts and issues in the virtual model.
• Implement and maintain BIM/VDC coordination workflows for mechanical piping projects.
• Collaborate closely with project teams, engineers, and field personnel to align BIM models with real‑world construction practices.
• Provide leadership, mentorship, and guidance to BIM coordinators and modelers within the mechanical piping team.
• Communicate clearly with stakeholders to report progress, resolve issues, and support project decision‑making.
• Organize and prioritize work to meet project deadlines and maintain efficient coordination processes.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical and coordination challenges related to mechanical piping BIM models.

• Minimum 5–10 years of experience in mechanical piping detailing, BIM coordination, or VDC leadership.
• Strong understanding of mechanical piping systems, fabrication methods, and construction practices.
• Advanced proficiency with Autodesk Revit for mechanical piping modeling and coordination.
• Advanced proficiency with Navisworks Manage for clash detection and coordination.
• Strong knowledge of BIM/VDC coordination workflows for mechanical systems.
• Ability to read and interpret construction documents, specifications, and mechanical piping isometrics.
• Strong knowledge of clash detection, coordination processes, and constructability review.
• Demonstrated leadership and team management experience in a BIM or VDC environment.
• Excellent communication skills to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary project teams.
• Strong organizational skills to manage multiple tasks, deadlines, and coordination activities.
• Effective problem‑solving skills to identify and resolve design and coordination issues.
• Proficiency with mechanical engineering, design engineering, and piping design concepts.
• Experience using AutoCAD for mechanical piping and coordination‑related tasks.

• Experience with fabrication software platforms such as Autodesk Fabrication CADmep.
• Experience working with Revit Fabrication Parts for detailed mechanical piping modeling.
• Experience with Stratus or similar fabrication and construction management platforms (preferred but not required).
• Background in mechanical engineering or a related discipline is beneficial.
• Experience in leading BIM or VDC teams within mechanical or piping‑focused projects.
• Familiarity with industry best practices for virtual design and construction in mechanical trades.

The role operates in a technology‑driven environment focused on Building Information Modeling and Virtual Design and Construction for mechanical piping systems. You will work extensively with Autodesk Revit, Navisworks Manage, AutoCAD, and fabrication platforms such as Autodesk Fabrication CADmep, Revit Fabrication Parts, and potentially Stratus. The position involves close collaboration with project teams, engineers, and field personnel to align digital models with real‑world construction practices.
