The Mechanical Engineer - Buildings is responsible for designing and developing mechanical systems for industrial Power Distribution Center (PDC) buildings, including HVAC, piping, plumbing, and fire protection systems. This role requires a technically strong and collaborative engineer who can produce detailed designs using CAD and BIM software, perform engineering calculations, and ensure all solutions meet applicable codes, standards, and regulations. The Mechanical Engineer will work cross-functionally alongside architects, structural engineers, and other disciplines to seamlessly integrate building systems into Mission Critical Group's turnkey manufactured building solutions.
Accountabilities:
Develop detailed mechanical designs for building systems, including HVAC, piping, plumbing, and fire protection, using CAD and BIM software (AutoCAD, Revit) to produce 2D/3D models, schematics, and construction documents.
Partner with architects, structural engineers, and other disciplines to integrate building systems effectively, participating in design reviews and project meetings to provide solutions to design challenges.
Perform load calculations, airflow analysis, and equipment sizing to optimize system performance while ensuring designs align with energy efficiency and sustainability standards.
Ensure all designs meet applicable codes, standards, and regulations (ASHRAE, NFPA, and local building codes) while staying current with industry best practices and emerging technologies.
Prepare technical reports, specifications, and equipment schedules, and support construction activities by reviewing submittals and responding to RFIs in a timely manner.
