Create detailed mechanical and plumbing models in Revit up to LOD 400, including insulation, fittings, and hanger systems.
Develop accurate spool drawings and fabrication-ready deliverables that support field installation.
Coordinate mechanical systems with other trades using Navisworks Manage to identify and resolve design conflicts before construction begins.
Participate in weekly coordination meetings with general contractors, subcontractors, and project teams.
Review construction documents, specifications, submittals, and design requirements to ensure model accuracy.
Collaborate with project managers, field foremen, and installation teams to verify constructability and improve installation processes.
Maintain organized and accurate models that meet internal VDC standards and project requirements.
Track modeling progress, communicate coordination updates, and report clash detection status to the VDC Manager.
Support field layout workflows through point file creation and digital construction processes.
Assist project teams by providing technical solutions throughout the construction lifecycle.
What You Bring
2+ years of mechanical or plumbing modeling experience using Revit.
Experience creating mechanical fabrication models, spool drawings, and hanger layouts.
Proficiency with Revit MEP and familiarity with tools such as SysQue, eVolveMEP, or Fabrication Parts.
Experience using Navisworks Manage for clash detection and coordination.
Understanding of MEP systems and mechanical construction processes.
Ability to interpret construction drawings, specifications, and technical documents.
