Rendeavour Group is seeking a dynamic MEP CAD/BIM Technician to join our engineering department. This role requires a seasoned technical expert capable of leading the MEP modeling and coordination for complex high-rise and large-scale buildings. The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between engineering design and construction documentation, ensuring that Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing systems are modeled accurately, fully coordinated, and clash-free.
Drafting, Modeling & Technical Delivery:
- Lead the production of fully coordinated MEP drawings and BIM models for HVAC, Electrical (Power/Lighting/Low Current), Plumbing, Drainage, and Fire Fighting systems.
- Prepare detailed schematics, riser diagrams, plant room layouts, and typical installation details for high-rise and industrial projects.
- Ensure all MEP services are modeled to the required Level of Detail (LOD) and adhere to company CAD/BIM standards.
- Convert engineering design mark-ups into accurate construction documentation and shop drawings.
- Maintain updated libraries of MEP families and blocks to ensure modeling efficiency and accuracy.
Coordination & Clash Detection:
- Utilize Navisworks to execute rigorous clash detection between MEP services and Structural/Architectural elements; manage the resolution of clashes with the engineering team.
- Coordinate service routes to optimize ceiling voids and vertical shafts, ensuring constructability and maintenance access.
- Collaborate with the structural and civil teams to ensure penetrations, sleeves, and openings are accurately located in the structural model.
Site Support & Quality Control:
- Review contractor shop drawings and material submittals against the design model to ensure compliance.
- Assist in the production of Combined Services Drawings (CSD) and Builders Work in Connection (BWIC) drawings.
- Conduct site inspections to verify that MEP installations match the coordinated BIM models and "As-Built" documentation whenever requested.
Requirements
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical/Electrical Engineering or a Diploma from a specialized technical institute is required.
- Experience: A minimum of seven to ten (7-10) years of progressive experience in MEP drafting and coordination for residential, industrial, and high-rise buildings.
- BIM Experience: Minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience in MEP BIM modeling.
- Software Proficiency: Expert-level proficiency is mandatory in AutoCAD, Revit (MEP), and Navisworks. Awareness of calculation software (e.g., HAP, Dialux, Elite Fire) is an advantage.
- Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of MEP systems coordination, plant room spatial requirements, and building services codes.
