Licensed Mechanical Engineer - HVAC/MEP

We are seeking an experienced Licensed Mechanical Engineer (PE) with strong hands-on expertise in HVAC and MEP design to support a diverse portfolio of commercial, institutional, healthcare, municipal, veterinary, and other specialized facilities.

This is a hands-on engineering role, not a project management position. The ideal candidate will independently design mechanical systems, perform engineering calculations, develop construction documents, and serve as the Engineer of Record throughout the project lifecycle.

Responsibilities

• Design HVAC and mechanical systems for commercial, institutional, healthcare, and specialized facilities.
• Perform HVAC load calculations, energy analysis, equipment selection, ventilation design, and mechanical engineering calculations.
• Develop detailed construction drawings, specifications, equipment schedules, and technical documentation.
• Serve as the Engineer of Record, providing technical oversight from initial concept and design through construction and closeout.
• Coordinate mechanical systems with architectural, structural, electrical, plumbing, and other disciplines.
• Review and respond to RFIs, submittals, shop drawings, and other construction-phase documentation.
• Conduct field investigations, site visits, inspections, and construction observations.
• Identify and resolve design, code, coordination, and constructability issues.
• Develop practical and cost-effective engineering solutions that meet project requirements and client objectives.
• Support commissioning, inspections, punch-list activities, and final project closeout.
• Ensure designs comply with applicable building codes, industry standards, energy requirements, and client specifications.
• Review, seal, and take responsibility for engineering drawings and calculations as required.
• Maintain high standards of technical accuracy, quality, and documentation throughout each project.

• Active Professional Engineer (PE) license required.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• 5+ years of mechanical engineering experience; 10+ years preferred.
• Proven hands-on 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 requirements.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit MEP, or comparable mechanical design software.
• Experience developing, reviewing, and sealing engineering drawings, specifications, and calculations.
• Strong technical, analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills.
• Experience coordinating with multidisciplinary engineering, architectural, and construction teams.
• Hands-on mechanical/HVAC design experience is required.
• Experience with healthcare, municipal, institutional, veterinary, or other technically complex facilities preferred.
• Candidates with primarily project management backgrounds and limited hands-on mechanical design experience will not be considered.

• 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
