Are you the type of engineer who enjoys seeing your designs come to life in the real world — not just on a screen?

We’re looking for a hands-on, detail-oriented Design Engineer to support the design and development of custom HVAC systems used in mission-critical environments. This is an opportunity to join a growing engineering and manufacturing organization where your work directly impacts production, installation, and customer success.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving practical engineering challenges, collaborating across departments, and designing systems that actually get built.

What you'll do:

Design and revise custom HVAC systems, assemblies, and fabrication drawings
Create accurate, production-ready drawing packages using SolidWorks
Collaborate with systems, controls, electrical, production, and field teams throughout the project lifecycle
Support real-world manufacturability and installation feasibility
Assist with component selection, layouts, and engineering documentation
Utilize and maintain PDM systems, revision control, and engineering records
Troubleshoot and resolve design-related production or installation challenges
Participate in design reviews and continuous improvement initiatives

What we're looking for:

3+ years of design engineering experience
HVAC industry experience required
Strong SolidWorks or similar CAD experience
Experience working with PDM systems and engineering documentation
Strong mechanical aptitude and understanding of manufacturing processes
Ability to problem solve, communicate effectively, and work cross-functionally
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field highly preferred

What makes this role different?

This is not a purely theoretical engineering role. You’ll work closely with production and field teams to ensure designs are practical, manufacturable, and installation-ready.
The best candidates for this role enjoy balancing technical precision with real-world problem solving.
You’ll be part of a collaborative team environment where engineering, operations, and manufacturing work closely together to deliver innovative HVAC solutions for mission-critical applications.

Why join us?

Opportunity to work on highly customized HVAC systems
Collaborative and technically strong engineering environment
Growing company with meaningful, impactful work
Exposure to manufacturing, production, and field operations
Ability to directly influence product quality and project success
Competitive compensation and benefits
