Mid - Level Mechanical Engineer

Responsibilities

• Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
• Utilize Autodesk Revit to produce detailed design documents.
• Perform airside and hydronic calculations for multiple mechanical systems.
• Understand and develop hydronic & air flow diagrams for various system types.
• Select and specify HVAC equipment
• Meet project deadlines, including working necessary hours to complete major deliverables.
• Understand local and national construction codes and project specifications to grow a broader understanding of the construction process.
• Have experience with the use of Microsoft tools such as Word, Power Point, Excel, and Teams.
• Have the ability to travel when required to project sites (approximately 10-20% travel).
• Have the ability to clearly communicate with others in both written and spoken forms.
• Lead junior engineers, designers, and modelers, and coordinate the tasks of small project teams to execute delivery of specific design elements.
• Mentor and train junior engineers, designers and modelers to assist in developing mechanical design knowledge base.
• Maintain excellent organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously

Requirements

• 4-year degree in mechanical engineering or architectural engineering with a preferred mechanical focus. 2-year degrees and MET degrees with work experience will be considered.
• Minimum 4 years of experience in facility HVAC design, particularly using Autodesk Revit for drawing development.
• Experience in mechanical design for larger industrial and commercial buildings is preferred, with experience in mission critical design a plus.
• Experience working across the entire construction process, from schematic design through construction administration, including review of submittals and shop drawings, and field work such as existing condition surveys, site observations, and punch lists.
• Experience leading small mechanical design teams and having some client interface experience is preferred.
• Experience using construction management tools such as Procore and Autodesk Construction Cloud.
• Basic understanding of controls for mechanical systems is a plus.
• Engineer-in-Training (EIT) or Professional Engineer (PE) preferred.
• LOCATION
• This position will begin as remote, with plans to transition to a hybrid role as we continue to grow. We anticipate establishing offices in both the Austin and Dallas-Fort Worth metro areas in the near future, at which point it will become a hybrid role.

Additional Information

Engineering data centers with precision and expertise. At Strategic Mission Critical, we are more than just engineers; we are experts focusing solely on mission critical facilities. Our seasoned leadership team brings together decades of experience, equipping data center providers worldwide with robust, reliable solutions that keep pace with the evolving digital landscape. As demand for high-performance infrastructure accelerates - fueled by AI and the expanding digital landscape - SMC continues to lead through technical rigor and operational excellence. We're seeking leaders who think beyond projects to improve the way we deliver them: individuals who elevate people, process, and performance across the firm. SMC is actively looking for Mid-Level Mechanical Engineer/Designer to execute mechanical design for mission critical projects. Typical project types may include design of greenfield and brownfield data center facilities, design of fit-out packages for hyperscale and enterprise clients of colocation providers, data center campus planning, conceptual designs and feasibility studies, and various system calculations. This candidate shall be capable of executing basic mechanical design projects independently, taking established design criteria through generation of design plans and specifications for permitting and construction. The candidate shall also be capable as serving as a key contributor in part of a larger mechanical design team on large and/or complex mission critical projects under the guidance of a senior engineer. The mechanical design scope will be a part of a broader project and therefore this candidate should be capable of interfacing with design leads within SMC (electrical, telecommunications, fire protection, plumbing) as well as externally including architectural, civil, structural, etc. The ideal candidate will be comfortable mentoring recent graduates and junior designers and engineers, reviewing the work of others, and collaborating with senior engineers to implement broad project goals.
