The ideal candidate brings solid HVAC drafting experience, strong attention to technical accuracy, and a proactive approach to interdisciplinary collaboration.

Key Responsibilities:

HVAC Design Development:

  • Prepare detailed HVAC drawings including duct layouts, piping, equipment placement, and mechanical room configurations.

  • Convert design concepts and engineering sketches into coordinated construction documents.

  • Interpret HVAC loads, zoning plans, equipment schedules, and mechanical specifications for accurate modeling.

BIM Modeling & Coordination:

  • Develop and manage HVAC models in Revit MEP, ensuring alignment with architectural and structural models.

  • Participate in clash detection using Navisworks or BIM 360, and resolve conflicts through coordination meetings.

  • Maintain and apply company and project-specific CAD/BIM standards and templates.

Technical Collaboration:

  • Interface with engineers to verify system performance assumptions, spatial requirements, and installation constraints.

  • Support site-specific design considerations such as ceiling coordination, shaft planning, and equipment access.

  • Assist in developing as-built models and record drawings based on field markups or redlines.

Project Execution & Support:

  • Help plan drafting workload and manage drawing deadlines across multiple projects.

  • Provide support in preparing duct/piping quantity takeoffs, layout maps, and drawing packages for clients or contractors.

Key Focus Areas:

  • 3D HVAC modeling and drawing production

  • BIM coordination and clash resolution

  • Construction document development

  • Technical interpretation and multidisciplinary collaboration
