Senior / Principal Mechanical Engineer | Water Infrastructure
Mechanical Design | Water & Wastewater Projects | Flexible Office Locations
An established Australian engineering consultancy is looking for an experienced Mechanical Engineer to join its growing water infrastructure team.
This is an opportunity for someone who genuinely enjoys engineering design, solving technical challenges and being involved in projects from the early concept stages right through to commissioning.
The business works across a range of water and wastewater infrastructure projects throughout Australia, partnering with major contractors and clients on complex engineering solutions.
You'll be joining a team of experienced engineers where you will have the opportunity to take ownership of your work, contribute to technical decisions and support the development of other engineers.
The Role
Working across a variety of water and wastewater infrastructure projects, you'll be responsible for the mechanical design and delivery of engineering solutions.
Your responsibilities will include:
Leading mechanical design across water and wastewater treatment projects
Designing pumping systems, pipework and associated mechanical equipment
Preparing engineering calculations, specifications and technical documentation
Working on projects from concept design through to commissioning and handover
Conducting technical reviews and identifying opportunities to improve designs
Collaborating with civil, process, structural and electrical engineers
Providing technical support during installation, testing and commissioning




Mentoring junior engineers and contributing to the wider engineering team
What We're Looking For
A degree in Mechanical Engineering
Approximately 8 to 12+ years of relevant engineering experience
Strong experience in the Australian water and wastewater industry
Proven background in mechanical design within an engineering consultancy
Experience with pumping systems, hydraulic design, piping and mechanical equipment selection
Understanding of Australian engineering standards and water industry requirements
Experience delivering projects from design through to commissioning
Chartered or RPEQ registration would be highly regarded
We're particularly interested in speaking with engineers who have strong technical design capability and enjoy being hands-on rather than purely managing projects.
What's On Offer?
This is an opportunity to join a well-established engineering consultancy with a strong pipeline of work and a reputation for delivering quality engineering solutions.
You'll have the chance to work on a diverse range of projects, collaborate with experienced professionals and take on genuine technical responsibility.
The business offers a supportive and collaborative culture, versatile working arrangements and opportunities for long term career development.
There is also potential for progression and greater leadership responsibility as the business continues to grow.
If you're an experienced Mechanical Engineer looking for an opportunity where your technical expertise will be valued, we'd be interested in hearing from you.
