Frequently asked questions

What software is standard?

Revit MEP and Navisworks are mandatory. Trade-specific add-ons (CAD-Duct, Victaulic Tools for Revit, eVolve) are strong pluses.

Remote options?

VDC is one of the most remote-friendly disciplines in mechanical construction. Many Nashville clients support fully remote BIM coordinators and modelers.

Do I need MEP background?

Strongly preferred. We focus on candidates with commercial mechanical, plumbing, or piping BIM experience — not general architectural Revit.

How is Oracle's East Bank campus affecting Nashville mechanical hiring?

Significantly — the East Bank program has pulled senior PM, superintendent, and VDC talent into the Nashville market from Atlanta, Charlotte, and Dallas. Comp for senior roles has moved up appreciably over the last 18 months.
