Openings: 2 Location: Nairobi – South C (Muhoho Ave / Belleview spur) Overview: The CAD/BIM Technicians sit at the heart of design delivery, turning engineering concepts for structures and MEP systems into drawings that contractors can build without guesswork. Your week revolves around maintaining clean models, disciplined file structures, and sheet sets that reflect current design intent with zero ambiguity. When engineers iterate, you update fast, document changes cleanly, and keep the CDE spotless. You’ll run coordination views across trades, flag clashes early, and push timely RFIs that prevent downstream rework. Redlines are processed with precision, from line weights to annotations to tagging consistency. You’ll manage families, templates, and libraries so that modelling stays efficient and standards remain unbroken from project start to handover. This role blends production speed with quality control; you’ll own naming conventions, sheet versioning, transmittal logs, and the small details that keep project teams aligned. Measured by sheet quality audits, RFI rates, and reissue cycles, your work directly influences how smoothly the site team executes. Ideal candidates bring 3–5 years in consultancy or contractor design offices, strong Revit/AutoCAD/ Navisworks capability, and the discipline to follow (and improve) BEP and CDE rules.
