Project types may include healthcare, commercial, municipal, institutional, veterinary, and other technically complex facilities.

Responsibilities

• Design HVAC and mechanical systems for commercial, institutional, and specialized facilities.
• Perform HVAC load calculations, energy analysis, equipment selection, ventilation design, and other engineering calculations.
• Develop construction drawings, specifications, equipment schedules, and technical documentation.
• Serve as the Engineer of Record and provide technical oversight throughout design and construction.
• Coordinate mechanical designs with architectural, structural, electrical, plumbing, and other engineering disciplines.
• Review and respond to RFIs, submittals, shop drawings, and other construction-phase documentation.
• Conduct field investigations, site visits, and construction observations.
• Identify and resolve design, code, coordination, and constructability issues.
• Develop practical engineering solutions that meet project requirements and client objectives.
• Support commissioning, inspections, punch-list activities, and project closeout.
• Ensure designs comply with applicable building codes, industry standards, energy requirements, and client specifications.
• Maintain a high standard of technical accuracy, quality, and documentation throughout each project.

Requirements

• Active Professional Engineer (PE) license required.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of mechanical engineering experience; 10+ years preferred.
• Proven experience designing HVAC and MEP systems for commercial and institutional facilities.

• Proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit MEP, or comparable mechanical design software.
• Experience developing, reviewing, and sealing engineering drawings and calculations.
• Strong technical, analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills.
• Experience coordinating with multidisciplinary engineering, architectural, and construction teams.
• Hands-on HVAC and mechanical design experience is required.
• Experience with healthcare, municipal, institutional, veterinary, or other complex facilities is preferred.
• Candidates whose experience is primarily project management without substantial mechanical design experience will not be considered.

Benefits

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Retirement savings plan with company contribution.
• Paid time off and company holidays.
• Continuing education and professional development support.
• Opportunity to work on technically challenging commercial and institutional projects.
