About the Job

Requirements

  • At least 4 years of MEP modeling and BIM/VDC coordination experience, ideally on the construction or trade side.
  • Advanced Autodesk Revit MEP skills, including worksharing, linked models, shared coordinates, system modeling, families, views, and sheets.
  • Hands-on clash detection and issue tracking in at least one of Navisworks Manage, Revizto, or Autodesk Construction Cloud.
  • Strong understanding of how HVAC, piping, plumbing, and fire protection systems are installed in the field, including clearances, access, hangers, and sequencing.
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, shop drawings, and submittals.
  • Track record of producing coordinated layout and penetration drawings that trades have built from.
  • Familiarity with LOD requirements, BIM Execution Plans, and model QA/QC.
  • Ability to run a coordination meeting and explain a problem to a superintendent or an engineer.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines while working independently.
  • A diploma or degree in mechanical engineering, mechanical/HVAC engineering technology, or a related field; equivalent trade or field experience is also accepted.

Responsibilities

  • Develop coordinated construction-level MEPF Revit models of HVAC, hydronic, plumbing, gas, and fire protection systems, along with associated mechanical equipment, using IFC drawings, consultant models, shop drawings, and trade input; model to LOD 350–400 with actual sizes, fittings, insulation, service access, and clearances.
  • Lay out boiler, chiller, and water entry rooms in full detail, including equipment, housekeeping pads, and all piping and ductwork.
  • Coordinate MEPF systems with electrical, structural, and architectural models; run clash detection in Revizto, Navisworks, and Autodesk Construction Cloud; track clashes through resolution and keep the model current as RFIs, SIs, and change orders come in.
  • Raise virtual RFIs and issue reports on drawing conflicts, clearances, no-fly zones, and installation sequencing, with practical solutions that trades can build.
  • Present the model in coordination meetings with general contractors, mechanical and electrical trades, consultants, and fabricators, and drive open issues to closure.
  • Generate layout, penetration, sleeve, shaft, and section drawings; manage review submittals and as-built updates.
  • Bring ductwork and piping to fabrication level and produce pipe spool drawings, duct assembly drawings, and bills of materials; export fabrication data, such as SysQue to Trimble FabShop, and hanger/support point layouts for field layout tools.
  • Plan modeling work against scope, schedule, and budget; flag scope changes early; guide other modelers; review their work for quality and consistency; and help scope new MEP proposals.
  • Improve MEP standards, templates, families, and automation using tools such as Dynamo, pyRevit, and cmCore.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with fabrication-level modeling in SysQue, Autodesk Fabrication, or Trimble FabShop, including producing spool drawings and bills of materials.
  • Experience working for or directly with mechanical, plumbing, sheet metal, or fire protection trade contractors.
  • Experience laying out hangers and supports and exporting points for Trimble or other total-station layout.
  • Familiarity with laser scanning, point clouds, and Scan-to-BIM workflows.
  • Ability to automate workflows with Dynamo, pyRevit, or scripting in Python or C#.
  • Project experience in healthcare, long-term care, mass timber, or other complex building types.
  • Proficiency in Bluebeam for submittals and markups.

About the Company

CadMakers

Digital construction twins and fabrication twins.

CadMakers builds a cloud platform for construction digital twins and fabrication twins. Its cmCore.io base powers three components: cmBuilder for simulation, cmExe for execution, and cmKnowledge for learning. Users model buildings and fabrication workflows in cmBuilder, run and manage construction tasks with cmExe, and access knowledge resources with cmKnowledge. The platform enables planning, simulating, executing, and learning on digital representations of projects within one system. What sets CadMakers apart is a construction-focused, integrated cloud stack that combines simulation, execution, and learning in a single platform tailored to construction workflows. Its goal is to advance construction 4.0 by improving planning accuracy, collaboration, and productivity through digital twins.
