We’re seeking a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) with hands-on HVAC and mechanical design experience to lead engineering projects for commercial, healthcare, institutional, and municipal facilities. This role combines technical design leadership with construction-phase support, from initial system design through final project delivery. Key Responsibilities • Design HVAC and mechanical systems that meet building requirements, performance standards, and applicable codes. • Perform heating and cooling load calculations, evaluate ventilation needs, select equipment, and assess energy efficiency. • Prepare mechanical plans, technical specifications, equipment schedules, engineering calculations, and construction documents. • Serve as Engineer of Record when assigned, ensuring technical quality and sound engineering decisions throughout the project. • Coordinate mechanical designs with architectural, structural, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems. • Evaluate existing building conditions, regulatory requirements, and project constraints to determine appropriate design solutions. • Review contractor submittals, shop drawings, RFIs, and proposed design changes for technical compliance. • Conduct site visits, field evaluations, and construction observations to verify design intent and identify installation issues. • Resolve design conflicts, code concerns, and field challenges while maintaining system performance and compliance. • Evaluate alternative designs to improve cost efficiency, energy performance, reliability, and maintainability. • Support commissioning, inspections, testing, and final project handover. • Sign and seal engineering documents as authorized by licensure and applicable regulations. • Maintain accurate engineering records and ensure deliverables meet project specifications and quality standards. • Collaborate with clients, architects, contractors, and multidisciplinary engineering teams. Requirements • Active Professional Engineer (PE) license required. • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline. • 5+ years of mechanical engineering experience; 10+ years preferred. • Direct HVAC and mechanical MEP design experience in commercial, healthcare, institutional, municipal, or comparable facilities. • Strong knowledge of load calculations, ventilation design, HVAC equipment selection, energy efficiency, and mechanical codes. • Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit MEP, or equivalent mechanical design software. • Experience preparing and reviewing engineering calculations, construction drawings, specifications, and equipment schedules. • Understanding of building system integration and multidisciplinary design coordination. • Strong technical judgment, analytical skills, troubleshooting abilities, and communication skills. • Experience collaborating with building owners, architects, contractors, and engineering teams. • Healthcare, municipal, institutional, veterinary, or other complex facility experience preferred. • Substantial hands-on HVAC and mechanical design experience is essential. Candidates whose backgrounds focus primarily on project management, administration, or coordination without significant design involvement will not qualify. 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 engineer complex commercial and institutional facilities • Collaborative, multidisciplinary team environment • Long-term career development and advancement opportunities
