BIM Modeler, Mechanical

Responsibilities

• Develop mechanical system models in Revit from engineering markups, sketches, and design criteria, including ductwork, hydronic piping, and mechanical equipment layouts
• Size ductwork and piping based on airflow, velocity, pressure drop, and equipment requirements, applying sound engineering judgment when every detail isn't fully specified
• Produce mechanical plans, sections, details, and schedules directly from coordinated BIM models
• Proactively coordinate mechanical systems with structural, architectural, electrical, plumbing, and controls disciplines
• Run and participate in Navisworks clash detection, investigating root causes and driving resolutions rather than just flagging conflicts
• Track coordination issues through closure and ensure resolved changes are incorporated into the model
• Maintain model accuracy, organization, and compliance with Giga's BIM standards
• Support construction and field teams by resolving mechanical routing and coordination questions, incorporating field conditions into the model
• Perform quality-control reviews of mechanical models and drawings to catch errors and coordination gaps before release

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Architectural Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of experience developing mechanical systems in Autodesk Revit
• Strong experience modeling HVAC ductwork, hydronic piping systems, and mechanical equipment layouts
• Working knowledge of duct and pipe sizing, airflow, velocity, and pressure-drop criteria
• Demonstrated ability to take engineering markups and independently develop a complete mechanical layout
• Experience coordinating mechanical systems across architectural, structural, electrical, and plumbing disciplines, including identifying and resolving BIM clashes
• Strong attention to detail and clear written and verbal communication skills
