What's in it for you

We are seeking a motivated HVAC & Plumbing Engineer to join our HVACP engineering group. The successful candidate will be joining an established, respected, and growing team providing a range of mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing engineering services to our practices across the firm. As an HVAC & Plumbing Engineer at Woodard & Curran you will work on heating, ventilation, air conditioning, odor control, and plumbing projects for our industrial, water, wastewater, municipal, design‑build, and plant operations clients on a regional and national basis.

You will interface with clients to understand their HVAC and plumbing requirements for municipal, utility, and industrial facilities. You will also prepare and coordinate engineering reports, studies, calculations, drawings, and specifications. In addition, you will perform construction phase services such as shop drawing review and contractor oversight and will carry out QA/QC functions to ensure accuracy and adequacy of work products.

Your work will come in varying degrees of complexity and although you will develop to work independently on most projects, our experienced engineers will be there to support you collaboratively, answer questions, and provide on‑the‑job mentoring. You will have an opportunity to develop your career professionally, technically, and personally. Our shared goal is to support your development, advancement, responsibility growth and work portfolio within the group and organization.

This is an exciting opportunity to deliver HVAC & plumbing design solutions for various building and space types in a consulting environment. Our diverse portfolio of projects means that you will have the chance to work across different markets and geographies. We often encounter critical systems in industrial environments like water treatment and manufacturing buildings, as well as occupied spaces requiring comfort and energy efficiency requirements.

This position level is flexible based on experience and qualifications of the candidate. Candidates with related mechanical engineering experience ranging from 3 to 8 years of experience are encouraged to apply.

Expectation is to be in the office for a minimum of two days per week.
