HVAC/Plumbing Engineer

Experience Required: 3–5 Years Salary: $70,000 – $85,000 (Commensurate with experience)

About the Organization

Founded in 2013, our organization is a full-service engineering firm specializing in Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Protection, and Fire Alarm systems. We pride ourselves on being a high-growth, agile organization with a "zero-bureaucracy" philosophy. Our team is close-knit, friendly, and dedicated to maintaining a peaceful, collaborative work environment. We offer a wide range of services, including energy recovery systems, radiant flooring, complex site and sewer connections, and detailed construction administration.

The Role

We are seeking a proactive and independent HVAC/Plumbing Engineer to join our growing team. Unlike roles at larger firms where you may act as an assistant, this position requires an engineer with "hands-on" experience capable of designing systems independently. You will manage projects across multiple disciplines internally while serving as the primary point of coordination for architects, contractors, and local city agencies.

Key Responsibilities

Engineering Design: Independently design HVAC and Plumbing systems using AutoCAD, ensuring all designs meet project specifications and applicable energy conservation codes.
Project Management: Handle multiple projects simultaneously, overseeing the project lifecycle from initial design through to construction administration.
Internal Coordination: Lead coordination between mechanical, electrical, and plumbing disciplines within the firm.
External Liaison: Coordinate directly with external stakeholders, including architects and contractors, and navigate approval processes with relevant city agencies.
Construction Administration: Manage RFIs, submittals, amendments, as-builts, and conduct field visits and punch lists.

Requirements

Professional Experience: 3–5 years of professional MEP design experience.
Regional Expertise: A minimum of 1 year of experience specifically on projects based in our major metropolitan area is required.
Technical Mastery: Must be highly proficient in AutoCAD and able to design HVAC systems independently rather than as an assistant to a lead engineer.
Code Knowledge: Strong familiarity with local energy conservation codes and building regulations.
Multidisciplinary Skills: While HVAC and Plumbing are the core focus, additional experience in Sprinkler or Electrical systems is a significant plus.
Soft Skills: We are looking for professionals who are easy to work with, friendly, and thrive in a supportive, close-knit team environment.

Benefits & Compensation

Salary Structure: $70,000 – $85,000 base. Higher compensation is available for candidates with broader multi-discipline design experience and additional years of tenure.
Vacation: Generous vacation days and closure on all major holidays.
Future Growth: We are a growing company and are actively working toward implementing a group medical plan in the near future.
Environment: A supportive, low-bureaucracy office where your contributions are highly visible and valued.
