Job Title:

HVAC Designer / Mechanical Designer

Job Description

This role focuses on HVAC and mechanical system design for complex industrial, manufacturing, infrastructure, and building-related projects. Supporting a regional mechanical team and contributes to the design of systems for industrial clients, including semiconductor, aerospace, and pharmaceutical facilities, as well as select higher education and public-sector projects. The position emphasizes the creation and coordination of detailed HVAC and mechanical models and construction documents using Revit and AutoCAD.

Responsibilities

+ Create and revise HVAC and mechanical design drawings using Revit 3D design software and AutoCAD, with a strong focus on ductwork, piping, equipment layouts, and coordinated mechanical models.

+ Produce construction-document support materials, including plans, details, sections, schedules, and mechanical layouts for HVAC and related mechanical systems.

+ Support mechanical design work across complex industrial, manufacturing, infrastructure, and building-related projects, primarily for semiconductor, aerospace, and pharmaceutical clients, with some higher education and state agency work.

+ Focus on advanced manufacturing and industrial environments.

+ Coordinate mechanical layouts with other disciplines, including electrical, structural, architectural, plumbing, process, fire protection, and civil/site teams to produce complete and accurate construction drawings and details.

+ Participate in internal design coordination meetings, model reviews, and project discussions to ensure alignment among disciplines and to resolve design issues.

+ Review existing conditions in facilities and assist with documenting existing mechanical and HVAC systems for renovation, retrofit, or upfit projects.

+ Apply mechanical engineering and building systems knowledge to develop practical, constructible HVAC and mechanical solutions that meet project requirements.

+ Incorporate red-line markups and feedback into design documents and models accurately and efficiently.

+ Collaborate with project teams to support project management activities related to HVAC and mechanical design deliverables.

Essential Skills

+ Proficiency in HVAC design and mechanical design for building and industrial systems.

+ Hands-on experience with Revit, including Revit MEP, for 3D modeling of building systems.

+

Experience with AutoCAD, including 3D capabilities, for building systems design and drafting.

+ Ability to create and modify ductwork, piping, equipment layouts, and coordinated mechanical models.

+ Ability to produce mechanical construction documents, including plans, details, sections, schedules, and layouts.

+ Strong understanding of building mechanical systems, including HVAC, piping, and related infrastructure.

+ Ability to coordinate mechanical layouts with electrical, structural, architectural, plumbing, process, fire protection, and civil/site disciplines.

+ Capability to work independently to some extent while contributing effectively to a team.

+ Ability to read and interpret shop drawings and ductwork drawings.

+  mechanical engineering or a closely related field.

+ Bachelor of Science (BS) in Engineering or a related field.
