About the Company

Our client is a well-respected civil and mechanical engineering firm with decades of experience delivering high-quality municipal infrastructure projects. Known for its hands-on leadership, collaborative culture, and strong client relationships, the firm combines the stability of an established company with the entrepreneurial spirit of a smaller organization.

Because of their size, team members here enjoy broad project exposure, meaningful responsibility, and close mentorship from senior engineers. This is not a place where you’ll get siloed — you’ll be trusted to contribute immediately and gain experience across a diverse range of mechanical and infrastructure design projects.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist Professional Engineers with mechanical design for water/wastewater treatment facilities, pump stations, and related infrastructure.
  • Prepare mechanical layouts, piping diagrams, and equipment details using AutoCAD or Revit .
  • Support HVAC, plumbing, and process system designs, including equipment selection, energy efficiency analysis, and coordination with other disciplines.
  • Perform calculations related to fluid flow, pressure loss, and system capacity under the guidance of licensed engineers.
  • Contribute to the preparation of technical drawings, specifications, and construction documents.
  • Participate in field assessments, equipment evaluations, and construction phase support.
  • Collaborate with civil, electrical, and structural teams to deliver integrated design solutions.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering required.
  • EIT certification (or ability to obtain within 6 months).
  • 0–4 years of mechanical design experience (internship or entry-level).
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD , Revit , and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Familiarity with HVAC, plumbing, or process system design standards.
  • Excellent communication skills and desire to grow in a collaborative, mentorship-driven environment.
  • Prior experience with municipal, water/wastewater, or industrial mechanical systems a plus.

Why Join?

  • Competitive compensation and benefits package.
  • Hands-on project involvement across a variety of infrastructure types.
  • Direct mentorship and training from licensed Professional Engineers.
  • Defined pathway toward PE licensure and future leadership opportunities.
  • Collaborative culture with exposure to multidisciplinary projects.
  • Flexible, hybrid work environment (initially in-office).
