• Develop and manage shared, project, family and global parameters , ensuring consistent naming and data structures.
  
• Build standard Revit views, view templates, filters, schedules, sheets, title blocks, legends, annotations and documentation standards.
  
• Create reusable BIM content for elements such as doors, windows, furniture, equipment, fixtures, fittings, casework, building components and MEP equipment.
  
• Optimise family geometry and data to maintain appropriate Levels of Development (LOD) and Levels of Information Need while avoiding unnecessarily heavy models.
  
• Develop schedules and data structures to support quantities, specifications, asset information and BIM deliverables.
  
• Establish and maintain a structured Revit family/content library , including naming conventions, classifications, version control and approval processes.
  
• Review existing Revit families and templates, identify quality or performance issues and rebuild/optimise content where necessary.
  
• Test families for flexing, parameter behaviour, hosting, visibility, scheduling, tagging and project performance before release.
  
• Ensure templates and families support organisational BIM standards, ISO 19650 principles and project/client requirements , where applicable.
  
• Work closely with BIM Managers, architects, engineers, designers and project teams to understand content requirements and translate them into reusable BIM components.
  
• Produce user guides, family creation standards and documentation to help project teams use BIM content consistently.
  
• Provide ongoing technical support and troubleshooting for Revit templates and families.
  
• Continuously identify opportunities to automate and improve BIM content creation and management.

• Ability to work independently and manage multiple BIM-content requests.
  

Highly Desirable

Experience with Dynamo for Revit , Autodesk Construction Cloud/BIM 360, Navisworks, AutoCAD, BIM interoperability and IFC workflows would be advantageous.

Experience developing BIM content for Australian AEC projects and familiarity with Australian building/documentation practices would also be highly regarded.

Knowledge of Revit API, Python, C# or other BIM automation technologies would be beneficial but is not mandatory.

The successful candidate will be expected to develop and maintain:

Candidate Profile

We are looking for someone who is more than a Revit modeller. The ideal candidate is a BIM content specialist who understands how to build reusable, intelligent and maintainable Revit content that can be deployed consistently across multiple projects and project teams.

Candidates should be able to demonstrate a portfolio of Revit families and templates they have personally created , and explain their approach to parameters, family performance, standardisation and quality control.

Portfolio requirement: Shortlisted candidates may be requested to demonstrate or provide examples of Revit templates, parametric families or BIM libraries they have developed.
