Job description

If you think BIM is more than clash detection, keep reading.

At Autonomation, we don’t believe Digital Engineering is about policing models or enforcing standards in isolation. We believe it’s about helping project teams succeed, by understanding how buildings are actually designed, coordinated, built, and handed over.

We’re looking for a Digital Engineering / BIM Coordinator who has real AEC project exposure, understands how live projects operate, and wants to grow their capability in coordination, collaboration, and digital delivery.

This role is ideal for someone early in their DE/BIM journey who enjoys being hands‑on, working closely with project teams, and contributing to better project outcomes through practical application of BIM, both in the office and on site.

Location: Hybrid – Brisbane

Why this role is different

We value AEC experience first, technology second

We focus on outcomes, not just compliance

We support and enable stakeholders, not just enforce standards

We work across design, construction, and delivery

We combine consulting, software, automation, and data

Your focus will be on supporting coordination and improving delivery outcomes, not just running clash tests. You’ll work alongside experienced BIM Managers and project teams, gaining real exposure to coordination workflows, model quality, and site verification processes.

Some of the things you could be doing

• Run and support coordination meetings with project teams
• Carry out clash detection and track issues through to resolution
• Undertake structured model audits to improve quality and compliance
• Work closely with designers, engineers, and contractors to coordinate models
• Assist in implementing BIM Execution Plans (BEPs) and digital workflows

• Attend site to support verification activities and validate models against constructed works
• Help identify coordination risks and opportunities to reduce rework
• Learn and apply ISO 19650 principles in live project environments
• Contribute to improving internal tools, templates, and guidance material
• Work with Autonomation’s team across software, data, and automation initiatives

• An interest in improving how projects are delivered digitally
• A practical mindset, focused on helping teams achieve real outcomes
