Mechanical Engineer – 0-3 years of experience
The Mechanical Engineer position provides the technical design of complex HVAC, plumbing, medical gas and fire protection systems in support of projects for healthcare, higher education and other institutional facilities. The position will be part of a multi-disciplinary team of MEP design engineers with direct supervision provided by a senior level mechanical engineer.
Responsibilities
The candidate will work with a team of mechanical and electrical engineers to design HVAC, plumbing, medical gas and fire protection systems for healthcare, higher education, and other institutional clients. Under supervision of a more senior engineer, candidate will assist with field survey of existing mechanical systems, develop heating/cooling loads and assist with the mechanical system design from inception of the project through completion of construction. Candidate will work with software programs such as Trane Trace to develop mechanical system load calculations and coordinate with design disciplines for other building systems (such as electrical, structural, site/civil, etc.). Additional responsibilities include or require interaction/communication with the architectural discipline, code analysis and strong computer skills.
Qualifications
- BS in Mechanical Engineering (or Bachelor of Architectural Engineering) from an accredited engineering program
- 0-3 years of experience in load calculations, mechanical system analysis and HVAC, plumbing, medical gas and fire protection system design
- Must be self-motivated and able to work as part of a project team
- Must be able to make site visits to verify existing conditions of mechanical, plumbing and fire protection systems
- Candidate must reside within the Mid-Atlantic region
Preferred But Not Required
- Design experience with healthcare and higher education projects
- Experience with design in Autocad and Revit
- Experience with construction administration activities such as submittal review, attending OAC meetings, review of construction RFI’s, etc.
- Experience with energy-efficient design and a sustainable approach to design of MEP systems

Mechanical Engineer – 3-6 years of experience
The Mechanical Engineer position provides the technical design of complex HVAC, plumbing, medical gas and fire protection systems in support of projects for healthcare, higher education and other institutional facilities. The position will be part of a multi-disciplinary team of MEP design engineers and will require strong technical expertise and communication skills.
Responsibilities
The candidate will work with a team of mechanical and electrical engineers to design HVAC, plumbing, medical gas and fire protection systems for healthcare, higher education, and other institutional clients. This position will be responsible for the mechanical system design from inception of the project through completion of construction. In depth knowledge of load calculations and associated software, such as Trane Trace, as well as familiarity with codes are critical skills of this position. Coordination with design disciplines for other building systems (such as electrical, structural, site/civil, etc.) will be necessary as will the ability to provide field survey of existing mechanical systems with no supervision. This position will require attendance at Owner, Architect, and Contractor meetings during construction and the oversight of construction activities related to the mechanical discipline. Additional responsibilities include or require interaction/communication with the architectural discipline, documentation of design decisions and strong computer skills.
Qualifications
- BS in Mechanical Engineering (or Bachelor of Architectural Engineering) from an accredited engineering program
- 3-6 years of experience in load calculations, mechanical system analysis, code analysis and HVAC, plumbing, medical gas and fire protection system design
- Must have experience with design in Autocad and Revit
- Must be able to work as part of a project team and attend meetings with Architects, Owners, Clients, Contractors as needed
- Must be self-motivated and be capable of working independently to complete projects and assignments
- Must be able to make site visits to verify existing conditions of mechanical, plumbing and fire protection systems without supervision
- Must be able to make site visits during construction to support project through completion of construction
- Candidate must reside within the Mid-Atlantic region
Preferred But Not Required
- Design experience with healthcare and higher education projects
- Focus on energy-efficient design and a sustainable approach to design of MEP systems
- Engineer in Training (EIT), LEED Accreditation or Health Facility Design Professional (HFDP) certification
