BIM Designer - HVAC and Plumbing

Job Summary

Tebarco Mechanical Corporation (TMC) is seeking a skilled BIM Designer to support our design, coordination, and field teams in delivering top-tier mechanical projects. The BIM Designer will utilize advanced BIM software to create, manage, and coordinate 3D models for HVAC, plumbing, and related systems, ensuring clash-free designs and accurate shop drawings. This role requires collaboration with engineers, project managers, and field superintendents to bridge the gap between office planning and on-site execution.

Key Responsibilities

3D Modeling & Coordination: Develop and maintain detailed 3D models of mechanical systems (HVAC, plumbing, etc.) using software such as Revit, AutoCAD, and Navisworks, ensuring full coordination with other trades.

Clash Detection: Perform clash detection and interference checks, generating reports and collaborating with project teams to resolve spatial conflicts before construction.

Shop Drawings & Documentation: Produce accurate shop drawings, submittals, and fabrication-ready models to support prefabrication and field installation.

Field Integration: Work closely with field superintendents to provide digital construction layouts using tools like Trimble robotic total stations and mobile applications on iPads.

Collaboration: Participate in real-time coordination meetings (e.g., via GoToMeeting) and maintain project documentation on TMC's FTP site or client-preferred platforms (Bluebeam, Dropbox, etc.).

Standards Compliance: Adhere to TMC's BIM standards and workflows, contributing to continuous improvement of processes and templates.

Support Project Teams: Assist engineers and estimators with conceptual designs, cost estimates, and design-build deliverables as needed. Qualifications

Experience: Minimum of 2-3 years of experience in BIM modeling or design engineer, preferably in mechanical, HVAC, or plumbing systems.

Technical Skills: Proficiency in Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, and Trimble layout tools. Familiarity with Bluebeam, Dropbox, or similar collaboration software is a plus.

Education: Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Construction Management, CAD Drafting, or a related field preferred; equivalent experience considered.

Knowledge: Strong understanding of mechanical construction processes, trade coordination, and field layout techniques.

Soft Skills: Detail-oriented, collaborative, and able to communicate effectively with diverse project stakeholders.

Physical Requirements: Ability to visit job sites as needed for surveys or coordination (valid driver's license required). Preferred Qualifications

Experience with design-build projects and LEED/Energy Star compliance.

Familiarity with 3D scanning or robotic total station layout.

Prior work in a fast-paced construction environment. Why Join Tebarco?

Growth Opportunities: We invest in our employees with training and development to help you reach your full potential.

Innovative Culture: Work with cutting-edge technology and a team that leads BIM coordination efforts.

Competitive Benefits: Enjoy comprehensive health insurance, paid time off, and a supportive work environment.

Pay Range: $65,000 - $90,000 per year
