Job description

Job Responsibilities

1. Reports to Creative Director and to work with BIM Managers & Project Manager(s)
2. Capable in preparing 3D Model Development and Detailing:
   • Developing and maintaining accurate, detailed 3D BIM models (often using software like Autodesk Revit or ArchiCAD) for architectural, structural, and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) disciplines.
   • Creating shop drawings, fabrication drawings, and "as-built" documentation directly from the BIM model.
3. To Coordinate and Perform Clash Detection:
   • Integrating models from different design disciplines (e.g., architecture, structure, and MEP) into a single, comprehensive model.
   • Performing Clash Detection (using tools like Autodesk Navisworks) to identify and resolve conflicts (e.g., a pipe running through a structural beam) before construction begins.
4. Participating in and leading design coordination meetings.
5. Data Management and Information Extraction (4D/5D BIM):
   • Managing project data embedded within the model elements (e.g., component specifications, manufacturer details).
   • Extracting data for Quantity Take-offs (QTO) or Bill of Quantities (BOQ), which helps with cost estimation (5D BIM).
   • Supporting the integration of time/scheduling information (4D BIM) to visualize the construction sequence.
6. BIM Standards and Quality Control:
   • Ensuring that all models and drawings comply with the project's BIM Execution Plan (BEP), company standards, and relevant building codes/specifications.
   • Developing and maintaining BIM templates, content libraries, and documentation workflows.
7. Coordination and preparation of project documentations / shop drawings / as built drawings for project team’s submission to clients
8. Capable of handling multiple on-going projects at a given time with the "can-do" attitude
9. To effectively communicate and maintain relationship with all internal and external stakeholders
10. To lead by example and to possess an initiative attitude in managing multiple on-going projects

Job Requirements

1. Educational Background:
   • Candidates must possess at least a Diploma or Bachelor's Degree in a relevant field such as Architecture, Civil/Structural Engineering, Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or Building Technology.
   • A degree with a specialization or strong coursework in Building Information Modeling (BIM) is highly advantageous.
2. Professional Experience:
   • At least 3 years of hands‑on experience working in a BIM environment for design, construction, or asset management projects.
   • Demonstrable experience in developing, implementing, and managing BIM execution plans (BEPs) and BIM standards.
3. Technical Skills (BIM & Software Proficiency):
   • High proficiency in industry‑standard BIM authoring software such as Autodesk Revit is mandatory.
   • Competency in BIM coordination and clash detection software (e.g., Autodesk Navisworks Manage).
   • Familiarity with other relevant BIM tools (e.g., AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Rhino, Dynamo, etc.) is a plus.
   • Strong understanding of BIM principles, workflows, and LOD (Level of Development) specifications.
   • Ability to perform model auditing, quality checks, and data extraction for various project phases.
4. Project Management:
   • Experience in coordinating BIM deliverables across multiple disciplines (Architectural, Structural, MEP)
   • Ability to work independently as a self‑starter and function as a committed team player.
   • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to effectively liaise with project managers, designers, and site personnel.
   • Proven analytical and problem‑solving abilities.
