This project is based within the Snowy Mountains in NSW and will deliver one of the largest pumped hydro schemes in the world.\nSnowy 2.0 is the next chapter in the Snowy Scheme's history. It is the largest committed renewable energy project in Australia and will provide on-demand energy and large-scale storage for many generations to come. This Iconic Project has and will continue to create its own legacy in Australian history.\nThe Senior Project Engineer - Mechanical is responsible for the end-to-end delivery of assigned mechanical systems, including Potable Water and Water Purification, Fire Fighting, HVAC / Mechanical Ventilation, and Lifts. The role manages the packages from shop drawing and technical review through construction, testing and commissioning, client acceptance and final handover.\nKey Responsibilities\nLead the review and coordination of mechanical shop drawings, technical submissions, Material Approval Requests, equipment data sheets, RFIs and design clarifications.\nEnsure compliance with approved design documentation, project requirements, applicable Australian Standards, manufacturer requirements and relevant statutory obligations.\nCoordinate multidisciplinary interfaces with electrical, controls/BMS, fire detection, civil, structural, architectural, communications and BIM teams.\nIdentify and resolve design gaps, clashes, constructability issues and site constraints before they affect installation.\nProvide technical support to procurement, including review of supplier/subcontractor proposals, technical departures and long-lead equipment requirements.\nManage and coordinate subcontractors, suppliers and site teams during construction and installation.\nConduct site inspections, monitor progress, resolve technical/site issues and ensure work is installed in accordance with approved drawings, ITPs, specifications and quality requirements.\nMonitor engineering, procurement, installation and commissioning milestones and escalate programme risks or constraints.\nSupport variation and claim assessments by confirming technical scope, quantities and whether proposed works are within the original subcontract requirements.\nSystem Responsibilities\nPotable Water & Water Purification\nManage installation and coordination of potable water distribution, pumps, tanks, valves, treatment/purification equipment, instrumentation and associated interfaces.\nCoordinate power, controls, drainage and process interfaces for water treatment equipment.\nManage pressure testing, flushing, cleaning, disinfection, water-quality testing and final commissioning to demonstrate required flow, pressure and water quality.\nFire Fighting\nManage installation and coordination of firefighting pipework, pumps, hydrants, hose reels, valves and associated equipment.\nEnsure compliance with approved fire design, project requirements and applicable Australian Standards.\nCoordinate hydrostatic testing, flushing, functional testing, certification, witnessing and final system acceptance.\nHVAC & Mechanical Ventilation\nManage installation and commissioning of ductwork, pipework, fans, air-handling equipment, dampers, grilles, diffusers, supports and insulation.\nCoordinate HVAC interfaces with electrical power, BMS/controls and fire systems.\nManage pre-commissioning, air/water balancing, controls testing, functional testing and verification of airflow, pressure, temperature and specified performance.\nLifts / Elevators\nManage technical and site coordination of lift installation and interfaces with structural, architectural, electrical, communications and fire systems.\nVerify shafts, pits, headroom, openings, embedded items, power supplies and other installation prerequisites.\nCoordinate testing, statutory inspections, certification, commissioning, defect closeout and handover.\nTesting, Commissioning & Handover\nReview and coordinate ITPs, testing procedures, commissioning procedures, method statements, check sheets and commissioning programmers.\nConfirm mechanical completion and system readiness before testing and commissioning.\nManage applicable pressure testing, flushing, disinfection, functional testing, pump testing, HVAC balancing, controls/interlock testing, firefighting testing, lift testing and integrated system testing.\nCoordinate Client, designer, certifier and stakeholder witnessing requirements.\nTrack and close defects, commissioning observations and punch-list items.\nVerify that completed systems meet design and performance requirements before recommending Client acceptance.\nManage final as-built drawings, O&M manuals, test and commissioning records, compliance certificates, warranties, spare-parts documentation and training records.\nCoordinate operator/maintenance training, final demonstrations and handover to the Client.\nQuality, Safety & Project Controls\nEnsure works comply with approved Quality Plans, ITPs, hold/witness points and project HSE requirements.\nManage the technical aspects of NCRs, defects and corrective actions and maintain appropriate engineering/site records.\nSupport safe planning for access, lifting, installation, pressure testing, energization and commissioning activities.\nPrepare progress updates and maintain visibility of key risks, actions, interfaces and outstanding deliverables.\nQualifications & Experience\nBachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent recognized qualification.\nSignificant experience delivering mechanical systems on major infrastructure, industrial, power, tunnelling, building services or similar projects.\nDemonstrated experience managing systems from shop drawings through installation, testing, commissioning and handover.\nStrong knowledge of potable water/water treatment, firefighting, HVAC/ventilation and/or lift systems.\nAbility to interpret mechanical drawings, P&IDs, schematics, equipment schedules and technical specifications.\nStrong understanding of multidisciplinary MEP coordination, quality systems, commissioning processes and applicable Australian Standards.\nExperience with BIM/federated models, Aconex or similar document-control systems is desirable.\nKey Competencies\nStrong technical and site problem-solving capability.\nAbility to independently manage multiple mechanical packages and subcontractors.\nStrong planning, coordination, communication and stakeholder-management skills.\nCommercial and contractual awareness.\nHigh level of ownership, organization and attention to quality and documentation.\nReporting & Overall Accountability\nReports to the EM Project Manager.\nThe Senior Project Engineer - Mechanical is accountable for taking assigned mechanical systems from shop drawing and engineering coordination through construction, testing, commissioning and final Client handover, ensuring each system is safe, compliant, functional, fully documented and accepted.\nAs an employee you will be eligible to participate in a number of additional employee benefits.
