JOB OVERVIEW

About Us
We are a real estate development company based in Canada. We design, permit, and build multi-unit residential buildings — townhouses, duplexes, triplexes, and small apartment buildings. We currently have 4 active construction sites and 20+ projects moving through our design pipeline.

Our architectural engineering team works in a sequential production chain: senior architects solve design problems at each stage, then hand their solutions to the production team to build into Revit and produce permit-ready documentation. You would be joining the production team — with the added responsibility of MEP coordination.

What this means in practice: you do the same BIM production work as the rest of the team (translating architects' design solutions into Revit models and permit drawings), plus you're the person who catches mechanical, electrical, and plumbing problems before they become RFIs on site. When a duct run doesn't fit above a dropped ceiling, when a plumbing stack conflicts with a structural member, when an electrical panel is boxed in by framing — you flag it before drawings go to permit.

You are not being hired as an MEP engineer. You're not sizing equipment, running load calculations, or stamping drawings. You're a BIM production specialist who has enough MEP systems knowledge to coordinate and catch conflicts. If you've worked at a firm where the BIM team was responsible for running Navisworks clashes and resolving MEP routing — that's the experience we need.

What Your Week Actually Looks Like

Monday-Tuesday: BIM Production (same as rest of production team)
8:00 AM: Open ClickUp, check your assigned projects. You have 2-3 active projects. Open the first one — a senior architect has uploaded sketch markups for a floor plan. You open the Revit template, set up the model with our standardized families, and begin building the floor plan as sketched.
11:00 AM: Quick screen-share with the senior architect for corrections. Adjust the model. Continue production.
1:00 PM: Switch to a project that's further along. You're producing the permit drawing set — plans, sections, elevations, details.

Wednesday-Thursday: Production + MEP Coordination
Morning: Continue BIM production on your assigned projects. Same workflow as Monday.
Afternoon: This is where your MEP role kicks in. You review 1-2 projects that are nearing permit submission. Open the Revit model and check:
- Can the HVAC ducts route from the mechanical room to each unit without hitting beams or dropping below ceiling height?
- Do the plumbing stacks align between floors? Is there clearance for the drain slope?
- Are electrical panels accessible per code? Is there a clear route for the main electrical feed?
- Does the HRV ductwork have a viable path to exterior walls for intake/exhaust?
You document any conflicts in ClickUp with screenshots and a proposed solution. The senior architect reviews and approves or adjusts.

Friday: Documentation and QA
Finalize drawing sets. Run a coordination check on any projects going to permit next week. Update project tracker. Flag anything blocking you.

What This Role Is and Is Not

You ARE:
- A BIM production specialist first — 70% of your time is the same Revit production work as the rest of the team
- The team's MEP coordination eyes — you catch system routing conflicts before they reach the construction site
- Working within standardized templates and families, not inventing new systems
- Part of a 3-person production team, managed centrally, assigned to projects based on priority

You are NOT:
- An MEP engineer — you don't size equipment, run load calcs, or stamp drawings
- Designing mechanical, electrical, or plumbing systems from scratch
- Making architectural design decisions (senior architects handle that)
- The sole person responsible for MEP compliance — we engage external MEP consultants for engineering sign-off

Who Should Apply

If you currently work at (or recently left) a BIM outsourcing firm like BIMCAP, Tesla Outsourcing, or Engr. Solutions where you did both architectural production AND ran MEP coordination or clash detection — this role is built for you.

Also a good fit: If you worked in the documentation team at Stantec, WSP, AECOM, Aurecon, Jacobs, Meinhardt, or Beca and were responsible for coordinating the architectural model with MEP disciplines — not as the engineer, but as the person who made sure everything fit.

Best fit: 2+ years producing residential construction documentation PLUS hands-on experience with MEP coordination — clash detection, duct routing reviews, plumbing stack alignment, electrical panel placement checks. You know what a residential forced-air system looks like in Revit and where the conflicts typically happen.

Not a fit: Full MEP engineers who want to design systems (we'll frustrate you — this role is coordination, not design). Pure architectural BIM techs who have never opened an MEP model. People who list "MEP coordination" on their resume because they attended clash meetings but never actually resolved a conflict in the model.

---
Requirements

- 2+ years producing residential construction documentation at a consultancy or BIM outsourcing firm
- Revit proficiency — LOD 300+ architectural modeling, sheet setup, annotation, dimensioning
- Direct experience with MEP coordination: clash detection, duct/pipe routing review, system clearance checks
- Familiarity with residential mechanical systems (forced-air heating, HRVs, basic plumbing, residential electrical)
- Experience with Navisworks, BIM 360, or Revit interference checks for multi-discipline coordination
- Architecture, engineering, or technical diploma — what matters is your portfolio and your coordination experience

Compensation and Conditions

Top performers: $2,200-2,800 CAD/month
Structure: $1,200 base + $ ---------- per project completed
Schedule: Full-time, AST 8am-4pm (8pm-4am Manila)
Time off: Weekends off, one paid vacation day per month
Probation: 1 month

Higher base than our standard BIM production role because the MEP coordination skill is harder to find and saves us significant rework on site. If you can produce fast AND catch MEP conflicts, you're worth more to us.

---
30-Day Proof Point

By day 30, we will know this is working if:
- You have completed at least 3 project drawing sets from sketch-to-permit documentation, working within our Revit templates
- You have performed MEP coordination review on at least 2 projects nearing permit and documented conflicts with screenshots and proposed resolutions
- Senior architects are handing you markups and receiving back models that need minor corrections, not rebuilds
- At least one MEP conflict you caught would have been an RFI or change order on site
- You are managing 2-3 concurrent projects without missing deadlines
- You are updating ClickUp daily without being reminded

How to Apply

Reply with your answers to all 5 screening questions and your resume. Include the word "COORDINATE" in your subject line so we know you read the full posting.

1. Employer and Role
Current/recent firm, your job title, and years there. Specifically describe: what percentage of your work was architectural BIM production vs. MEP coordination? Who did you coordinate with (in-house MEP team, external consultants, or both)?

2. Production + Coordination Experience
Two residential or multi-family projects where you both produced architectural Revit documentation AND performed MEP coordination. Include: location, building type, what you delivered, and one specific MEP conflict you caught and how you resolved it.

3. Scenario — MEP Conflict
You open the architectural Revit model for a 3-storey, 8-unit townhouse project that's two weeks from permit submission. While reviewing the second floor, you notice the structural engineer has placed a beam directly in the path where the HVAC supply duct needs to run from the mechanical closet to the rear units. The beam drops 300mm below the floor structure. The ceiling cavity is only 350mm. Walk me through how you handle this — who do you talk to, what options do you consider, and how do you document it? (3-4 sentences)

4. Schedule
Type "YES I CAN COMMIT" for AST 8am-4pm full-time.

5. Portfolio and Start Date
Links to resume, 2-3 architectural drawing sets you produced, AND 1-2 examples of MEP coordination work (clash reports, coordination markups, or before/after screenshots of resolved conflicts). How soon can you start?
