We are seeking a talented and detail-oriented Design Engineer to join our company. The Design Engineer will be responsible for developing innovative HVAC system designs that meet client requirements, industry standards, and regulatory codes. This role requires expertise in HVAC engineering principles, proficiency in CAD software, and the ability to collaborate effectively with project teams to deliver high-quality solutions.

Founded in 2008; we are a temperature controls HVAC company. In 2015 we purchased Technical Energy Solutions, another great controls group. We have 3 branch locations:
Grand Rapids, Alpena, and Rochester Hills.

• Field verify any ambiguous information to ensure accurate design for ownerdirect projects. Seek guidance from the Professional Engineer (PE) for field verification on bid/spec projects.
• Produce precise control drawings that align with the scope of work and specifications, encompassing bill of material schedules, network layouts (MSTP & IP), panel build diagrams, system flow diagrams, point schedules, and any customized wiring details.
• Complete accurate schedules for valves, dampers, VFDs, and airflow monitoring that meet applicable specifications.

• Manage inventory and organize returned materials from projects. Maintain the parts trailer and oversee the "not free shelf." Order materials as needed to replenish the "not free shelf."
