Produce mechanical drawings and specifications in accordance with building codes and industry standards.

Participate in client meetings and design team discussions to support project alignment and decision-making.

Assist with proposal efforts, including fee letter support and RFP responses.

Apply codes, standards, and best practices daily to ensure safe, efficient, and constructible designs.

A degree in Mechanical Engineering backed by 5+ years of hands-on mechanical/HVAC design experience in consulting environments.

Proficiency with Revit, AutoCAD, and engineering calculation tools.

Hold P.Eng. licensure with a strong desire for continued professional growth.

Knowledge of National Building Code, CSA standards, and ASHRAE guidelines.

Experience producing coordinated design packages and managing defined scopes independently.

A collaborative mindset and eagerness to solve problems alongside multidisciplinary teams and clients.
