StraussGroup - Executive Search Consultants

We're conducting a search on behalf of a well-established MEP consulting firm in Syracuse with a deep, stable book of higher education and institutional work across Central New York.

Please make sure you read the following details carefully before making any applications.

They're looking to add a Plumbing & Fire Protection Engineer who wants more than a drafting seat. Someone ready to take ownership of projects, engage directly with clients, and be a meaningful part of how work gets done.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Designing plumbing and/or fire protection systems for higher education and institutional projects
  • Developing calculations, layouts, and construction documents in AutoCAD and/or Revit
  • Coordinating with internal MEP disciplines, architects, and external project stakeholders
  • Participating in client meetings and site visits as a technical contributor
  • Taking on increasing project responsibility as your role matures

What We're Looking For

  • 3–8+ years of experience xhyhwjd in plumbing and/or fire protection design
  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
  • PE license required, or EIT actively working toward licensure
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD and/or Revit
  • Strong communication skills, comfortable working with clients and cross-functional teams
  • Project management experience is a bonus, not a requirement
