PLEASE NOTE - EXPERIENCE WITH SHOP DRAWINGS IS A MUST TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS ROLE.
I've been asked by my client, a well-established mechanical contractor in Melbourne to source an experienced Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to join their growing engineering and project delivery team.
This is an opportunity for a technically strong design engineer who enjoys working on complex building services projects and wants to be involved from concept and design development through to construction and project delivery.
You'll work closely with project managers, engineers, consultants, subcontractors and clients to deliver practical, buildable mechanical solutions across a diverse range of projects.
You will be responsible for:
Leading the mechanical design of commercial, industrial and/or large-scale building services projects
Developing detailed mechanical designs, layouts, calculations and documentation
Producing and reviewing drawings using AutoCAD and/or Revit
Undertaking HVAC load calculations, equipment selection and system design
Reviewing consultant designs and identifying opportunities for optimisation
Working closely with project and construction teams to ensure designs are practical and buildable
Providing technical support throughout construction and resolving design issues as they arise
Coordinating mechanical designs with architectural, electrical, structural and other disciplines
Participating in design reviews, client meetings and project coordination
Mentoring junior engineers and designers




Ensuring designs meet relevant Australian Standards, codes and project requirements
You'll ideally have:
A degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline
5+ years' experience in mechanical/building services design
Strong HVAC and mechanical services design experience
Experience working for a mechanical contractor, engineering consultancy or similar setting
Strong knowledge of Australian Standards and relevant building codes
Proficiency with Revit
Excellent understanding of mechanical services coordination
The ability to take ownership of designs and work autonomously
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
A practical, solutions-focused approach to engineering
This is more than a pure design role. You'll be joining a contractor where engineering is closely connected to real project delivery, giving you the opportunity to see your designs move from the drawing board through to construction.
You'll have the opportunity to:
Work on high-profile Melbourne projects
Take ownership of technically challenging designs
Work alongside experienced project and construction professionals
Develop your leadership and project delivery capability
Join a growing business with a strong pipeline of work
Progress your career into a senior technical, design management or project leadership position
