The RoleWe're seeking a Senior BIM Modeler to support the design and documentation of complex projects using the latest modeling software. In this role, you'll be responsible for creating 3D parametric models, translating them into clear 2D drawings, and producing detailed construction documents. The ideal candidate is self-directed, technically skilled, and comfortable working across all phases of the building design process.
Responsibilities- Create 2D CAD/3D BIM models to a high level of accuracy.
- Develop structural plans, sections, elevations and details from a 3D BIM model for projects of all sizes and technical complexities.

- Significant design experience and understanding of AutoCAD and Revit.
- Working knowledge of structural building components, structural construction materials (steel and concrete), standard construction techniques, and basic understanding of print reading and construction document production,
- Excellent understanding of 3D parametric modeling to maximize the benefits of an integrated building model.
- Excellent skills in relation to rendering and graphic formats and their manipulation and output.
- Experience in Rhino, Grasshopper, TEKLA, and data exchanges between BIM platforms is preferred.
