Senior Mechanical Engineer

Overview

We are looking for an experienced Senior Mechanical Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in the design and implementation of mechanical systems for a variety of entertainment projects. This role involves designing mechanical systems such as HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, and other building-specific mechanical systems, ensuring they meet all performance, efficiency, and regulatory standards.

Your role

• Design mechanical systems for buildings, including HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), plumbing, fire protection, and other essential systems.
• Produce detailed design documentation, including drawings, calculations, and specifications to meet client requirements and applicable building codes and standards.
• Perform system sizing, load calculations, and energy modelling to optimize the performance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of mechanical systems.
• Collaborate closely with other disciplines (architects, electrical engineers, structural engineers) to ensure that mechanical systems are integrated into the overall building design seamlessly.
• Conduct site visits to assess building conditions, verify measurements, and ensure designs are feasible based on existing or proposed conditions.
• Liaise with clients, contractors, and subcontractors to clarify design requirements, provide technical support, and ensure the smooth progression of the project.
• Ensure that all mechanical designs and systems adhere to local building codes, industry standards, and safety regulations.
• Stay up-to-date with the latest design software, industry practices, and regulatory changes to ensure the best possible solutions.
• Perform design reviews and quality checks to ensure the accuracy and quality of deliverables.
• Integrate energy-efficient systems and sustainable technologies, such as renewable energy systems, into designs to meet environmental and energy goals.
• Assist in achieving building certifications (e.g., LEED, BREEAM) by designing energy-efficient and environmentally responsible systems.
• Provide technical support to construction teams during installation and commissioning of mechanical systems.
• Address any design issues that arise during the construction phase and suggest solutions to ensure the systems are installed according to specifications.
• Conduct site inspections and performance testing to ensure systems operate as designed.
• Maintain comprehensive documentation of designs, system specifications, and calculations.
• Prepare and present reports for clients, stakeholders, and regulatory authorities.
  
  

Qualifications

About you
