Sr. Dry Mechanical Operations Engineer

Our Opportunity Summary

• Support the U.S. Expansion Construction team responsible for delivering high-tech, large-scale semiconductor manufacturing facilities in the United States.
• Coordinate the non-wet mechanical systems for Micron’s New York manufacturing facility, encompassing process ventilation, HVAC systems, cleanroom make-up air handling, and related infrastructure.
• Collaborate alongside firms that develop, contractors, vendors, and internal collaborators to guarantee dry mechanical systems meet project specifications, performance standards, safety requirements, and regulatory expectations.
• Transition from construction and commissioning support into the New York operations engineering organization, supporting sustaining engineering and operational readiness after project completion.
• This role is encouraged to be 100% on-site at the project site. Relocation to the project location is required.

• Coordinate third-party firms in building dry mechanical systems, including industrial ventilation, filtration units, emission control apparatus, cleanroom HVAC, make-up air handling, fan filter units, and related mechanical infrastructure.
• Review and validate engineering work, including P&IDs, equipment specifications, system arrangements, three-dimensional representations, compose standards, construction specifications, and operational requirements.
• Evaluate dry mechanical system designs for flow rates, velocities, pressures, friction losses, thermal performance, constructability, maintainability, safety, and reliability.
• Collaborate with external design teams, contractors, vendors, quality teams, and internal stakeholders to align system designs with facility requirements, project schedules, and operational needs.
• Support design integration with adjacent facility systems, including chilled water, ultra-pure water, chemical systems, gas systems, controls, and cleanroom infrastructure.
• Use BIM and design coordination tools such as Revit and Navisworks to support clash detection, design reviews, and cross-functional system integration.
• Support commissioning, testing, equipment validation, system startup, and turnover activities to confirm dry mechanical systems are prepared for operations.
• Ensure dry mechanical system designs and installations align with applicable safety, environmental, building code, and regulatory requirements, including OSHA, EPA, International Mechanical Code, International Fire Code, ASHRAE, SMACNA, and AHRI standards.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Mechanical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a related technical rigor.
• Demonstrated ability in dry mechanical engineering, HVAC engineering, process exhaust systems, cleanroom mechanical systems, or related industrial facility systems.
• Experience reviewing engineering work such as P&IDs, specifications, system layouts, 3D models, and construction documentation.
• Working knowledge of dry mechanical systems used in semiconductor, industrial, high-tech manufacturing, pharmaceutical, data center, or other technically complex facilities.
• Strong communication, problem-solving, and project coordination skills with the ability to work effectively with design firms, contractors, vendors, and internal teams.

• Experience supporting semiconductor manufacturing facilities, clean rooms, or other high-volume manufacturing environments involving intricate mechanical systems that operate without fluids.
• Experience overseeing third-party design firms or managing design review processes for cleanroom HVAC, make-up air handling, process exhaust, scrubbers, abatement equipment, or related systems.
• Familiarity with BIM workflows, clash detection, Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, PLC systems, SCADA systems, or mechanical controls integration.
• Knowledge of sustainable design practices, energy-efficient HVAC systems, cleanroom airflow optimization, and applicable energy codes.
• Professional certifications or advanced credentials such as PE, LEED AP, CPD, or similar technical certifications.
