Our client is a rapidly growing, construction leader who is seeking a proactive, technically skilled Project Engineer to serve as a key technical leader in their engineering department. This role bridges design engineering with hands-on construction execution, driving project decisions from initial concept through fabrication and final field completion.
You will design and engineer complete, functional mechanical/structural systems tailored to specialized agricultural and industrial facilities transforming field data and customer needs into buildable, high-performance solutions.
Engineering Design & Technical Documentation
Own design decisions across the entire project lifespan from early-stage conceptual layout through post-construction handoff.
Create detailed 2D layout drawings, 3D assembly models, and fabrication prints to guide field crews and manufacturing teams during installation.
Integrate field measurements and aerial/drone survey models to generate accurate, buildable site layout plans.
Create and review customer approval drawings; evaluate and approve third-party vendor submittals and shop drawings.
Cross-Functional Collaboration & Project Delivery
Serve as the technical bridge between Business Development, Estimating, Sales, Purchasing, Manufacturing, and Field Project Management.
Identify potential fitment, operational, or fabrication clashes early; provide rapid, practical engineering solutions to field issues and manage drawing revisions.
Forecast and track engineering and drafting milestones, estimating hours required for detail work and reporting capacity to leadership.
Perform occasional site visits and field verifications as needed to ensure construction aligns with design intent.
Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Civil, Agricultural, Structural, or related).
Strong experience in 2D and 3D modeling (AutoCAD and SolidWorks preferred, or equivalent software).
Solid grasp of industry drafting, tolerance, and dimensioning standards.
Proficient in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel) and project scheduling tools (MS Project or similar).
Experience & Industry Knowledge:
Experience in commercial, industrial, or specialty construction with a practical understanding of field installation practices.
Experience or strong familiarity with sheet metal design, steel fabrication, or mechanical system integration is strongly preferred.
Ability to thrive and self-manage in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.
Strong written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills across both technical and non-technical teams.
