We are seeking an experienced Licensed Mechanical Engineer (PE) with strong expertise in HVAC and MEP design for commercial and institutional facilities.

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on mechanical system design, analysis, calculations, and construction documentation rather than project management. The successful candidate will serve as an Engineer of Record, providing technical leadership from concept and design through construction and project closeout.

Projects may include healthcare, commercial, municipal, institutional, veterinary, and other specialized facilities.

Responsibilities

  • Design HVAC and mechanical systems for commercial and institutional buildings.
  • Perform HVAC load calculations, energy analysis, equipment selection, ventilation design, and 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 disciplines.
  • Review RFIs, submittals, shop drawings, and construction-phase documentation.
  • Conduct field investigations, site visits, and construction observations.
  • Identify and resolve design, code, and constructability issues with practical engineering solutions.
  • Support commissioning, inspections, punch-list activities, and project closeout.
  • Ensure designs comply with applicable building codes, industry standards, energy requirements, and client specifications.
  • Maintain high standards of technical accuracy, quality, and documentation.

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.
  • Strong knowledge of HVAC load calculations, equipment selection, ventilation, mechanical codes, and energy-efficiency principles.
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit MEP, or similar 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 background is primarily project management without significant 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.
  • Collaborative, multidisciplinary engineering environment.
  • Long-term career growth and advancement opportunities.
