Help develop and refine industrial thermal-fluid systems with a strong eye toward buildability, operability, maintainability, and cost
Contribute to and improve P&IDs, system layouts, piping concepts, mechanical arrangements, and equipment designs
Create CAD models, assemblies, and drawings where needed, not just review them
Critically review prints, layouts, and design packages and catch issues before they reach fabrication or the field
Work across process, mechanical, electrical, controls, and field considerations rather than staying narrowly inside one discipline
Develop technical specifications for major mechanical equipment and supporting components
Drive portions of the design from concept through vendor engagement, detailed design, fabrication, and field feedback
Work directly with suppliers and fabricators to clarify requirements, review designs, answer RFIs, and make sound judgements on open-ended engineering questions
Identify opportunities to standardize or automate parts of the design process, including engineering tools, design workflows, drawing generation, or CAD workflows
Help raise the technical level of the team through strong review, clear reasoning, and high standards while keeping an eye on speed and pragmatism
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent practical experience
8+ years of relevant experience in industrial equipment, process equipment, thermal-fluid systems, energy systems, rotating equipment, or related product development
Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals across piping, pressure vessels, materials, heat exchangers, rotating equipment, skidded systems, bearings, and fabrication
Skill creating and modifying P&IDs and translating system intent into practical hardware
Strong CAD capability, ideally in SolidWorks, including ability to create models and drawings directly
Strong print review instincts and the ability to find issues, inconsistencies, and bad assumptions in mechanical design packages
Ability to make sound engineering judgments in ambiguous, first-of-a-kind, or cross-disciplinary situations
Ability to communicate clearly with engineers, vendors, fabricators, and leadership
Willingness to engage with real hardware, real field constraints, and real operating problems
