From day one, you will receive the training and support needed to leverage AI as a core tool for enhancing productivity, spurring creativity, and streamlining complex workflows. Responsibilities Produce detailed engineering designs, technical project plans, specifications, drawings, and models that meet our specifications and client needs. Create, influence, and finalize designs involving industrial and domestic piping, plumbing, chillers, boilers, HVAC ducting, exhaust, motor control, process chemicals, wastewater discharge, Fire Protection systems and possibly other mechanical building systems. Perform detailed mechanical system calculations including load analysis, pump head curves, pressure drop, and energy consumption to optimize system performance and support design decisions. Apply standard engineering techniques and procedures and exercise judgment in making minor adaptations and modifications to design concepts. Ensure quality control by complying with company and team design and CAD standards. Work with the design team, other Engineers, Project Managers, and other stakeholders on specific assigned objectives, complex features, and aid in deriving possible solutions to unusual problems. Facilitate internal and external design review meetings, ensuring all deliverables meet quality assurance standards and project milestones, while mitigating risks related to design errors or omissions. Coordinate needs, designs, and develop an understanding with other design disciplines (Electrical, Structural, Process/Chemical, Architectural, etc.) for design package needs. Perform field verifications/site walks to identify, verify, resolve, and incorporate solutions into design packages when needed. May troubleshoot design problems in the field during construction. Manage technical inquiries, submittal reviews, and RFI responses from contractors and vendors, maintaining rigorous version control and supporting contractor coordination during procurement and installation phases. Qualifications Bachelor’s Degree from an ABET‑accredited school in Mechanical Engineering or technically related discipline. Experience working with AutoCAD is required. Experience with Revit, Navisworks, PIPE‑FLO or similar hydraulic modeling software is a plus. Demonstrated knowledge or experience with designs containing HVAC, chillers, boilers, pump hydraulics, exhaust, process chemicals, wastewater discharge, or other similar mechanical building systems. Demonstrated knowledge of ASHRAE standards, NFPA codes for mechanical systems, and familiarity with applicable state/local building codes. Ability to clearly communicate technical information and design concepts to project managers, contractors, and cross‑disciplinary teams. Salary Range: $68,000 - $98,000/year depending on location, education, experience, and any certifications that are directly related to the position. #J-18808-Ljbffr
