The Role

We're recruiting on behalf of a leading MEP contractor establishing its engineering office in Damascus. As Mechanical BIM Engineer, you'll deliver both engineering and BIM for HVAC, plumbing, public health and firefighting systems — critically reviewing designs, resolving technical issues, performing calculations, and making sure mechanical systems are coordinated, compliant and buildable.

What You'll Do

●        Review consultant mechanical designs and specifications, and identify gaps, coordination issues and non-compliances.

●        Initiate and manage RFIs, draft engineering responses and proposed modifications, and review material submittals.

●        Develop and manage mechanical BIM models (HVAC, plumbing, public health, firefighting) to LOD 300–400.

●        Run and review clash detection in Navisworks with engineering-based solutions.

●        Perform or review load, duct-, pipe- and pump-head / pressure-drop calculations.

●        Maintain as-built models, compile O&M, test reports and COBie data, and support commissioning.

What We're Looking For

●        5–8 years of combined mechanical engineering and BIM experience within an MEP contracting environment.

●        Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering (BSc/BEng) — essential.

●        Advanced Revit MEP; proficient Navisworks; competent AutoCAD.

●        Engineering software such as HAP, Trace 700 or Hevacomp, plus pipe-sizing tools.

●        Familiarity with ASHRAE 90.1, CIBSE guides and GCC authority / Civil Defence requirements.

●        Professional working English and fluent Arabic.

●        Based in Damascus and able to work on-site at the engineering office.

Nice to Have

●        GCC project experience; knowledge of UAE, KSA, Qatar or Kuwait submission processes.

●        MEP subcontractor background from design coordination through commissioning.

What You'll Get

●        Competitive base salary reflecting your experience.

●        A foundational engineering role in a newly established office, backed by an established regional MEP contractor.

●        Work to international BIM standards with a modern Revit, Navisworks and Autodesk Construction Cloud toolchain.

●        A professional, international-standard environment built on quality, clear coordination, and room to grow.
