Mechanical BIM Modeler

K20s Kinetic Technologies

Job Summary: We are seeking a skilled Mechanical BIM Modeler with experience in creating and managing detailed mechanical systems models using BIM technologies. The ideal candidate will be proficient in Revit, Navisworks, Dynamo BIM, and will have hands-on experience working with BIM LOD (Level of Development) ranging from LOD 100 to LOD 500. Familiarity with 4D and 5D BIM workflows for scheduling and cost estimation is also required. You will be responsible for developing, coordinating, and maintaining mechanical BIM models across multiple stages of the project lifecycle, ensuring seamless integration with other systems and disciplines.

Key Responsibilities: Mechanical BIM Modeling & Development: Develop and manage detailed 3D mechanical systems models using Revit for HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, and other mechanical systems. Ensure models are built to meet project specifications, following LOD 100 to LOD 500 standards.
Model Coordination & Clash Detection: Utilize Navisworks for model coordination, clash detection, and integration with architectural, structural, and electrical systems. Proactively identify and resolve any coordination issues between disciplines to avoid conflicts during construction.
4D & 5D BIM Integration: Integrate 4D (scheduling) and 5D (cost estimation) BIM data into mechanical systems models, working closely with project managers and teams to ensure that time and cost factors are accurately represented and aligned with the project schedule and budget.
Cobie Data Management: Prepare and incorporate COBie (Construction Operations Building Information Exchange) data into mechanical models for efficient facility management and asset tracking. Ensure the model includes all necessary data for building operations post-construction.
Dynamo BIM Scripting & Automation: Utilize Dynamo BIM to automate repetitive modeling tasks, streamline workflows, and improve overall model efficiency. Develop custom scripts to enhance data management and facilitate quicker updates to mechanical models.
Quality Control & Model Integrity: Perform regular quality control checks on mechanical models to ensure they meet project standards and are free from errors. Review and resolve issues such as data inconsistencies, design conflicts, or incomplete information.
Project Documentation & Reporting: Maintain detailed project documentation, including BIM model updates, clash detection reports, coordination meeting notes, and other project-specific documentation. Ensure timely delivery of all required documentation to internal teams and external stakeholders.
Collaboration with Multidisciplinary Teams: Work closely with other engineering disciplines (electrical, structural, architectural) to ensure seamless integration of the mechanical systems within the building s overall design. Participate in BIM coordination meetings and proactively address potential design issues.
BIM Execution & Implementation: Assist in the creation and execution of the BIM execution plan, ensuring all mechanical modeling tasks align with project timelines and client expectations. Follow best practices for data exchange, model development, and collaboration.
Ongoing Learning & Skill Development: Keep up to date with industry trends, BIM software updates, and emerging technologies. Participate in training and workshops to further develop your expertise in mechanical systems and BIM.
