Project Design Manager - MEP
Tippmann Group
Position Summary:
Based in the corporate office in Fort Wayne, IN, the Project Design Manager – MEP is responsible for leading the design and coordination of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems for design-build projects involving temperature-controlled buildings and food processing facilities. This role bridges the gap between design and construction—overseeing engineering deliverables, managing subcontractors and vendors, and ensuring systems are properly designed, integrated, and commissioned to meet project requirements. This position involves a mix of office-based design coordination and on-site project management. Travel to project sites, client facilities, and vendor locations is required as projects demand. Expected travel averages 3-5 nights per month.

Key Responsibilities:
• Perform up-front due diligence with existing and new site utility networks, availability, and coordination with local providers
• Lead the planning, coordination, and execution of MEP design and construction activities for temperature-controlled and food processing facilities.
• Oversee and coordinate the work of internal engineering teams, consultants, engineers of record, and subcontractors to ensure seamless integration of MEP systems with architectural, structural, and process designs.
• Conduct design and coordination meetings with clients, design partners, and construction teams.
• Support field teams during installation, testing, and commissioning, providing technical guidance and resolving design or coordination issues.
• Collaborate with estimating and preconstruction teams to develop MEP scopes, budgets, and schedules for design-build estimates.
Qualifications:
Education
• Bachelor of Science in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or similar degree
Experience:
• 3+ years of experience managing MEP systems design and installation; experience with design-build delivery preferred.
• Background in industrial, food processing, cold storage, or temperature-controlled facility projects preferred.
• Solid understanding of some or all HVAC, refrigeration, process utilities, electrical distribution, and plumbing systems.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD
• Familiarity with Revit, Bluebeam, or BIM coordination tools.
• Working knowledge of relevant building codes, NFPA, ASHRAE, and food safety standards.
• Excellent communication, coordination, teamwork, and leadership skills.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Detail-oriented with strong problem-solving and decision-making capabilities.
Benefits
• Competitive salary
• Performance-based quarterly bonus program
• Vehicle Plan
• Seven paid holidays
• Paid vacation time
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage
• Short- and long-term disability as well as life insurance
• 401k plan with company match
