Job Description
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Plumbing & Mechanical Piping BIM Specialist to join a growing U.S.-based VDC team supporting complex commercial, industrial, and mission-critical projects.
This is not a design-focused position. We are looking for someone with a strong construction-side mindset who understands how plumbing and mechanical piping systems are fabricated, coordinated, and installed in the field.
The ideal candidate has extensive experience developing fabrication-ready BIM models, producing shop drawings, supporting prefabrication, resolving coordination issues, and working closely with construction teams throughout project execution.
Responsibilities
- Develop highly detailed Plumbing and Mechanical Piping BIM models using Revit and Revit Fabrication Parts.
- Produce fabrication-ready models, shop drawings, spool drawings, and installation documentation.
- Perform multidisciplinary MEP coordination using Navisworks and BIM workflows.
- Identify and resolve clashes and constructability issues before construction.
- Support prefabrication by producing accurate fabrication models, spool assemblies, and quantity takeoffs.
- Model piping systems, hangers, supports, sleeves, penetrations, and fabrication assemblies.
- Coordinate directly with project managers, VDC teams, engineers, fabricators, and field personnel.
- Ensure models accurately reflect installation requirements and construction sequencing.
- Participate in coordination meetings and proactively resolve field coordination challenges.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in Plumbing and/or Mechanical Piping BIM modeling.
- Strong proficiency with Revit.
- Advanced experience using Revit Fabrication Parts.
- Strong working knowledge of Navisworks.
- Proven experience producing shop drawings, spool drawings, and fabrication-ready BIM models.
- Strong construction-side experience supporting fabrication, prefabrication, installation, and field coordination.
- Solid understanding of constructability, installation sequencing, clash detection, and BIM coordination.
- Experience modeling plumbing and mechanical piping systems for commercial, industrial, healthcare, mission-critical, or data center projects.
- Direct experience working on U.S. projects, with knowledge of U.S. construction practices and standards.
- Experience collaborating with U.S.-based engineering and construction teams.
- Senior-level professional capable of working independently, owning project deliverables, and moving projects forward with minimal supervision.
- Professional English communication skills.
- Available to join the team in the short term.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with domestic water, sanitary, storm, gas, and specialty plumbing systems.
- Experience with mechanical piping prefabrication workflows.
- Familiarity with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and BIM 360.
- Experience supporting data center or mission-critical projects.
What We Offer
- Long-term remote opportunity with a growing U.S. VDC company.
- Work on challenging commercial and mission-critical projects across the United States.
- Collaborative team environment with experienced VDC professionals.
- Competitive compensation based on experience.
- Opportunity to grow into technical leadership as the team continues to expand.
Benefits
- Work for the most exciting companies in the North American Market.
