• Provide engineering support for recirculation units, make-up air systems, exhaust systems, acid scrubbers, RCTO solvent-abatement systems, AHUs, and VAV systems.
• Respond to cleanroom HVAC OCAP conditions involving temperature, humidity, particle levels, and exhaust pressure.
• Monitor performance through inspections, trend analysis, capacity planning, and technical reporting.
• Apply FMEA, root-cause analysis, and reliability-engineering principles to improve system performance.

• Support capital projects, expense projects, system modifications, and equipment hook-ups.
• Maintain accurate operating, maintenance, and commissioning procedures.

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
• Five or more years of HVAC engineering experience covering design and operations.
• Strong knowledge of HVAC systems, exhaust systems, controls, chilled-water systems, cooling towers, and cleanroom standards.
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, and construction documents.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office.
