Mechanical Engineer
Put your HVAC and plumbing design expertise to work on mission-critical federal, healthcare, military, and institutional projects where you'll directly own calculations, Revit production, and technical engineering deliverables from concept through construction documentation.
We are seeking a hands-on Mechanical Engineer to support a growing portfolio of federal, military, healthcare, and institutional projects. This role is focused on direct design execution and technical ownership, providing an opportunity to contribute immediately to active projects through HVAC design, plumbing design, mechanical calculations, Revit production, and interdisciplinary coordination.
This is not a project management or oversight-only role. We're looking for someone who actively performs engineering calculations, develops construction documents, and takes ownership of the mechanical systems they design.
Work on federal, military, VA, healthcare, and mission-critical facility projects
Join a team experiencing significant project growth and a strong project backlog
Maintain a hands-on engineering role focused on technical design and production
Opportunity to work on technically challenging building systems projects
Long-term growth potential with conversion intent
Hybrid flexibility available following the onboarding period
This role is ideal for engineers who want to remain actively involved in design and engineering while contributing to meaningful infrastructure and institutional projects. You'll gain exposure to complex mechanical systems, interdisciplinary coordination, and advanced project delivery environments while continuing to develop your technical expertise.
Hourly Pay Range: $57.00 - $72.00 per hour
Compensation is based on hands-on design capability, technical ownership, calculation experience, and the ability to contribute independently to active project work.
Design HVAC and plumbing systems for federal, military, healthcare, and institutional facilities
Perform mechanical engineering calculations, including:
Load calculations
Equipment sizing
Pump calculations
Plumbing calculations
System performance analysis
Produce mechanical drawings and construction documents using Revit MEP
Coordinate with architecture, electrical, structural, and other engineering disciplines
Support multiple concurrent projects while maintaining quality and schedule commitments
Participate in field verification activities and occasional project site visits
Contribute to controls coordination, building automation discussions, and sequences of operation where applicable
Take ownership of project deliverables from design through construction documentation
Help reduce production workload while supporting successful project execution
We're seeking a Mechanical Engineer who can demonstrate direct ownership of HVAC and plumbing design, calculations, and Revit deliverables. The ideal candidate is comfortable working independently, coordinating with multidisciplinary teams, and contributing immediately with limited supervision.
5-10+ years of hands-on HVAC and plumbing design experience
Experience personally designing HVAC systems and plumbing systems
Strong proficiency with Revit MEP
Experience producing construction documents and mechanical drawings in Revit
Ability to independently perform:
Mechanical load calculations
Equipment sizing calculations
Pump calculations
Mechanical system calculations
Experience coordinating with architecture, structural, electrical, and engineering disciplines
Strong understanding of mechanical building systems and constructability
Ability to support multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
Strong technical communication skills
U.S. Citizenship required due to federal project requirements
Occasional local site visits for field verification and facility assessments
Most travel consists of short-duration project site visits
Hybrid work environment following onboarding
Initial onboarding period requires increased in-office collaboration
Long-term expectation of approximately three days onsite and two days remote
Professional architecture and engineering office setting
Flexible work schedule options
Collaborative, deadline-driven environment focused on quality and technical excellence
Opportunity to work alongside architects, engineers, and multidisciplinary project teams
