DescriptionWe are seeking an experienced Mechanical Engineer / Design Manager with specific process engineering experience to lead mechanical design and coordinate multidisciplinary engineering efforts from initial concept through construction. The ideal candidate combines strong mechanical engineering and design capabilities with practical construction knowledge, project management skills, and the ability to effectively lead design teams and communicate with clients, contractors, and internal project teams.
Experience with natural gas processing, industrial facilities, MEP systems, controls, or other industrial processing environments is highly desirable.
RequirementsMechanical Engineering & Design & Process- Develop conceptual designs for new gas processing and compression systems.
- Ensure mechanical designs comply with applicable building codes, industry standards, and safety requirements.
- Coordinate mechanical systems with architectural, structural, electrical, civil, process, instrumentation, and other disciplines.
- Investigate technical issues and develop practical, cost-effective solutions.
Design Management & Project Leadership- Lead and coordinate multidisciplinary design teams and subconsultants through all phases of a project.
- Review design deliverables for quality, accuracy, completeness, and compliance with project requirements.
- Respond to contractor RFIs, submittals, and technical questions during construction.
- Assist with field investigations, site assessments, and construction support.
- Develop and manage design schedules and coordinate deliverables to meet project milestones.
- Assist in developing project cost estimates, scopes of work, and engineering proposals.
- Maintain project documentation and ensure design records are properly organized.
- Travel to clients and project sites as required, approximately 20%.
Required Qualifications & Experience§ 5-8+ years of professional engineering experience in mechanical design and preparation of construction documents.
§ Bachelor's degree in mechanical, chemical, electrical engineering or a related field.
§ Professional Engineer (PE) license required. NCEES record desired.
§ Experience designing mechanical systems for commercial, industrial, manufacturing, process, or infrastructure projects.
§ Design & construction experience related to RNG & CNG fueling systems is highly desirable.
§ Ability to read, interpret MEP schematics, technical drawings, shop drawings, and building plans.
§ Working understanding of electrical circuits, power distribution, controls, and electrical system design is a plus.
§ Strong understanding of construction practices and preferably experience working in a Design-Build environment.
§ Proven ability to work independently, lead teams, make decisions, and solve complex technical problems.
§ Strong analytical, organizational, and project management skills.
§ Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
§ Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to effectively communicate with clients, contractors, engineers, and internal project teams.

Software ExperienceProficiency or experience with applicable engineering and project management software, including:§ AutoCAD
§ Revit
§ Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, etc.)
§ Microsoft Project or other scheduling/project management software
What We're Looking ForThe successful candidate will be a technically strong mechanical engineer who can also function as a design leader and project manager. You should be comfortable moving between mechanical design, client communication, design coordination, construction support, and project management.
We are looking for someone who is proactive, resourceful, detail-oriented, and comfortable taking ownership of projects from concept through construction.
Experience in industrial and process-related facilities is highly valued, but candidates with strong mechanical engineering, design management, and construction experience across other project types are encouraged to apply.
