MEP BIM Engineer at Tatu City Limited

Tatu is a project of Rendeavour, Africa’s largest urban land developer with over 30,000 acres of visionary projects in the growth trajectories of large cities in Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Zambia and Democratic Republic of Congo. Rendeavour’s vision goes beyond alleviating what is a self-evident problem - that of stifling urban congestion and a dearth of quality housing and commercial property in Africa. Rather, we aim to help create the infrastructure - the living and working spaces, communities, schools and hospitals - that will help sustain and accelerate Africa’s economic growth, meet the aspirations of Africa’s burgeoning middle classes, and serve as a catalyst for further urban development.

  • Perform regular, detailed clash detection using Navisworks to identify and resolve conflicts between MEP systems and other building components.
  • Generate and present clash reports in coordination meetings, collaborating with engineers, architects, and contractors to find effective solutions.
  • Proactively manage spatial allocation for MEP services to ensure efficient layouts and compliance with design and code requirements.

Documentation, Analysis & Support

  • Utilize the BIM model to perform analyses related to energy consumption, lighting, and system loads to support design optimization.
  • Extract material takeoffs and quantities from the MEP model to assist with cost estimation and procurement.
  • Provide technical support and training to design engineers and junior staff on BIM software and workflows, promoting digital literacy across the team.
