  • Develop precise technical layouts, assemblies, and details in Revit, ensuring consistency with design intent, constructability, and regulatory requirements
  • Coordinate architectural models with structural, MEP, and interior design inputs using BIM workflows and Navisworks
  • Review, resolve, and prevent coordination issues across disciplines; propose feasible, well-integrated technical solutions

  • Support tender and construction documentation preparation, ensuring alignment with specifications, codes, and local regulations
  • Assist in the development of project-specific systems and façade/roof/technical typologies based on construction logic and material performance
