Mechanical Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

Mechanical System Design:

• Develop and design mechanical systems for heating, cooling, and ventilation (HVAC), plumbing, fire protection, and other mechanical services.
• Ensure compliance with energy efficiency and sustainability standards (such as LEED or local energy codes).

Project Collaboration:

• Collaborate with architects, electrical and civil engineers, and construction teams to integrate mechanical systems with building designs.
• Participate in meetings and provide technical expertise on system designs and project requirements.

Technical Documentation:

• Prepare detailed mechanical designs, drawings, and specifications using software like AutoCAD, Revit, and BIM.
• Create cost estimates, material lists, and timelines for mechanical installations.

Construction Oversight:

• Monitor construction and installation processes to ensure that mechanical systems are installed correctly according to designs.
• Conduct inspections and tests to ensure systems meet performance, safety, and regulatory standards.

System Optimization:

• Perform analysis to improve energy efficiency, optimize system performance, and reduce operational costs.
• Recommend and implement new technologies, materials, and best practices to enhance system efficiency and sustainability.

Compliance and Safety:

• Ensure all mechanical systems comply with building codes, environmental regulations, and safety standards.
• Conduct risk assessments and address safety concerns in the design and implementation of systems.

Qualifications and Skills:

• Education: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• Experience: Previous experience in building systems design within the AEC industry, with a focus on HVAC, plumbing, and fire protection systems.
• Technical Proficiency: Expertise in AutoCAD, Revit, and Building Information Modeling (BIM).
• Knowledge: Familiarity with energy efficiency standards like ASHRAE, LEED, and local building codes.
