Mechanical Designer IV

Mechanical Designer IV

Quanta Power Solutions is seeking a highly experienced Mechanical Designer IV to lead complex mechanical design efforts for power generation, renewable energy, battery energy storage systems (BESS), data centers, substations, transmission, and industrial infrastructure projects. This senior-level design role is responsible for driving advanced 3D modeling and design execution, coordinating multidisciplinary deliverables, and ensuring high-quality, constructible design packages are delivered across all phases of EPC project execution. The ideal candidate will bring deep technical expertise in industrial mechanical design, strong leadership within design teams, and the ability to independently manage complex design scopes while mentoring junior and mid-level designers.

What You'll Do

• Lead the development of complex mechanical design deliverables for large-scale EPC projects.
• Prepare, review, and approve detailed equipment layouts and general arrangement drawings, advanced piping layouts and routing designs, isometric drawings and fabrication packages, mechanical installation and construction drawings, and equipment arrangement and coordination models.
• Provide design leadership for systems including piping and process systems, HVAC systems, cooling water and auxiliary systems, fuel gas systems, compressed air systems, and balance of plant (BOP) systems. Ensure all designs are constructible, code-compliant, and aligned with project specifications and engineering intent.
• Lead development and oversight of complex 3D models for major EPC projects. Manage model coordination efforts and lead clash detection resolution. Ensure integration of vendor models and multi-discipline design alignment. Maintain BIM standards and ensure consistency across all project deliverables. Lead model reviews with engineering, construction, and project teams.
• Independently manage major design scopes through conceptual design, detailed engineering, and construction phases. Oversee development of material take-offs (MTOs), quantity estimates, and design deliverables. Support development of construction packages and technical documentation. Provide input into project planning, sequencing, and execution strategies. Ensure design milestones and deadlines are consistently met.
• Coordinate mechanical design activities with civil, structural, electrical, process, and instrumentation teams. Lead design coordination meetings and interdisciplinary reviews. Resolve complex design conflicts and interface issues across disciplines. Ensure seamless integration of mechanical systems within overall facility design.
• Provide advanced support during construction, startup, and commissioning activities. Conduct field verification, site visits, and equipment walkdowns. Support resolution of Requests for Information (RFIs) and field design issues. Update models and drawings based on field conditions and as-built requirements. Assist with commissioning support and system turnover documentation.
• Ensure compliance with company drafting standards, engineering procedures, and project specifications. Perform detailed quality checks on design deliverables prior to issuance. Support development and refinement of drafting and BIM standards. Promote continuous improvement in design workflows and efficiency.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior and mid-level designers. Support training and development initiatives within the design team. Share best practices in mechanical design, modeling, and EPC execution. Assist engineering leadership with technical problem-solving and design optimization.

What You'll Bring

• Associate degree or technical diploma in Drafting, Engineering Technology, Mechanical Design, or related field preferred.
• Minimum 8–12 years of mechanical design experience.
• Extensive experience in EPC, power generation, industrial, utility, or infrastructure projects required. Demonstrated experience leading design scopes and coordinating multidisciplinary deliverables.
• Advanced knowledge of mechanical drafting and design principles, piping systems and industrial layouts, HVAC and mechanical utility systems, construction documentation and fabrication detailing, EPC design workflows and constructability requirements.
• Expert proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit, Navisworks, Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook). Strong experience with Plant 3D, BIM coordination workflows, clash detection and resolution processes, multidisciplinary design integration.
• Strong leadership and independent decision-making capabilities. Excellent attention to detail and commitment to design accuracy. Strong communication and coordination skills across disciplines and stakeholders. Ability to manage multiple complex design assignments simultaneously. Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on constructible, efficient solutions. Ability to mentor and develop junior staff effectively.
• Ability to sit, stand, or walk for extended periods. Ability to travel periodically for site visits, field verification, construction support, and project coordination. Ability to work in active industrial and construction environments as required.

What You'll Get

• Competitive Compensation
• Weekly Pay
• 401(k) Retirement Plan
• Holiday Pay
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Comprehensive Health Coverage
• Pet Insurance
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Professional Development Opportunities
