Mechanical Engineer Senior

A well-established MEP consulting engineering firm with over four decades of experience delivering complex institutional projects across the Intermountain West. With a strong presence in Colorado, Idaho, and Wyoming, they are now building their Cheyenne office and need the right leader to own it. Project portfolio includes hospitals, research labs, federal facilities, K-12 campuses, and university buildings. Known for technical depth, long-term client relationships, and a culture where engineers do serious work.

This is an office-building role, not a seat-filling role. The firm is looking for a senior mechanical engineer who is ready to transition from contributor to leader - someone who can develop clients, build a team, drive revenue, and own the P&L of a new market from the ground up. You will have the backing of an established firm with the autonomy to shape the Cheyenne presence from day one.

• Build and lead the Cheyenne office, including hiring, culture development, and P&L accountability
• Serve as the firm's senior technical and market presence in the Wyoming region
• Drive business development - cultivate relationships with owners, architects, and contractors
• Lead pursuit strategy, proposal development, and executive-level client presentations
• Provide senior design oversight on mechanical systems - HVAC, plumbing, piping, and controls
• Own project scope, schedule, and budget from kickoff through construction administration
• Oversee Revit 3D modeling, construction documents, and specifications
• Ensure compliance with applicable codes, standards, and regulatory requirements

• 4-year engineering degree from an accredited institution
• Professional Engineer (PE) license, or actively pursuing licensure
• Experience leading or managing a consulting engineering office or team
• Deep expertise in institutional mechanical systems - healthcare, education, or government preferred
• Demonstrated success in client management and business development
• Proficiency in Revit and Microsoft Office Suite
• Strong communication skills - able to represent the firm at the client and owner level

• Base salary: $150,000 - $220,000 depending on experience and licensure
• Performance incentives tied to business development and office profitability
• Medical, dental, and vision - 100% premium covered for the employee
• 401(k) with company match
• FSA and HSA options
• Short-term and long-term disability plus life insurance - 100% employer paid
• Parental leave and professional development support
• Relocation assistance available
• Flex schedule: 9-hour days Monday-Thursday, half-day Fridays
• Paid holidays, monthly firm activities, and employee longevity rewards program
• Referral and employee assistance programs

This is a rare opportunity to take real ownership of a market. You are not walking into a built-out office with a team already in place - you are building it. The firm has the reputation, the resources, and the project pipeline. They need someone with the vision and drive to plant a flag in Cheyenne and grow it into something significant.

If you have spent your career developing your craft and are ready to lead at a higher level, this is the right move.
