About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented BIM Mechanical Modeler with strong experience in developing accurate, coordinated, and construction-ready mechanical BIM models. The successful candidate will play a key role in project delivery, supporting mechanical design and construction teams throughout all project stages — from design development and coordination to construction documentation and as-built updates.
The role requires a technically proficient and proactive individual with strong knowledge of Revit MEP, mechanical systems, BIM coordination, and construction documentation. The candidate should be comfortable working with multidisciplinary teams and ensuring high-quality, accurate, and coordinated mechanical model outputs.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain accurate mechanical BIM models using Revit MEP across various project stages.
- Model and coordinate HVAC, ductwork, chilled water, piping, ventilation, equipment, and other mechanical systems in accordance with project requirements.
- Collaborate with mechanical engineers, architects, electrical engineers, plumbing teams, structural engineers, consultants, and contractors to integrate design information into coordinated BIM models.
- Prepare detailed mechanical drawings, layouts, sections, schedules, and construction documentation directly from BIM models.
- Create and modify Revit families for mechanical equipment, fittings, accessories, and other project-specific components.
- Ensure model accuracy, data integrity, naming conventions, worksets, parameters, and model organization comply with project BIM standards and the BIM Execution Plan (BEP).
- Participate in clash detection and BIM coordination using Navisworks and Revit, identifying and resolving clashes between mechanical and other building systems.
- Coordinate ductwork, piping, equipment, ceiling spaces, shafts, plant rooms, risers, and service zones to ensure constructability and efficient installation.
- Review engineering drawings and specifications and translate design information into accurate 3D mechanical models.
- Assist in the preparation of shop drawings, fabrication drawings, builders-work drawings, coordinated layouts, and installation documentation where required.
- Coordinate with consultants and contractors to incorporate design changes, RFIs, site conditions, and approved revisions into the BIM model.
- Support the preparation, management, and submission of BIM deliverables in accordance with project schedules and requirements.
- Conduct model quality checks and ensure that mechanical models are free from errors, inconsistencies, and coordination issues.
- Maintain model revisions and update models based on approved design changes and site information.
- Assist with the preparation of as-built and record models based on construction information.
- Support the development and continuous improvement of BIM standards, modeling procedures, templates, families, and workflows.
- Manage multiple tasks and project deadlines efficiently while maintaining a high level of accuracy.
- Provide technical support and guidance to junior BIM modelers when required.
Qualifications & Requirements
- Bachelor's degree or Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, Building Services Engineering, or a related field.
- Minimum 3+ years of professional experience as a BIM Mechanical Modeler in a multidisciplinary design, engineering, or construction environment.
- Strong proficiency in Autodesk Revit MEP, particularly mechanical modeling, documentation, families, and system coordination.
- Good working knowledge of HVAC and mechanical building services, including ductwork, chilled water systems, ventilation, mechanical piping, and equipment.
- Familiarity with Navisworks Manage for clash detection, coordination, and model review is preferred.
- Knowledge of BIM standards, BEP requirements, model coordination, naming conventions, LOD, and information management.
- Good understanding of mechanical construction drawings, detailing, specifications, and installation requirements.
- Experience coordinating mechanical systems with architectural, structural, electrical, and plumbing disciplines.
- Ability to read and interpret mechanical engineering drawings, specifications, and design documentation.
- Experience with shop drawings, coordination drawings, and as-built documentation is an advantage.
- Knowledge of relevant international standards and project-specific BIM requirements is preferred.
- Strong communication, coordination, organizational, and time-management skills.
- Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary team environment.
- Strong attention to detail, accuracy, and problem-solving ability.
- Ability to manage priorities and deliver high-quality BIM outputs within project deadlines.
Preferred Skills
- Advanced knowledge of Revit MEP and Navisworks Manage.
- Experience with large-scale commercial, residential, hospitality, healthcare, infrastructure, or industrial projects.
- Experience in BIM coordination and resolving multidisciplinary clashes.
- Knowledge of Dynamo, AutoCAD, BIM 360/ACC, or other BIM-related software is an advantage.
- Familiarity with LOD 300/350/400 modeling requirements and construction-level BIM deliverables.
- Understanding of mechanical equipment schedules, duct and pipe sizing information, and coordinated service layouts.
