This role provides a constantly evolving set of challenges and opportunities for professional growth. As a Mechanical Designer, you will: • Conduct regular site visits to verify existing field conditions and ensure the alignment of the design implementations process with the project's observational reports and specifications. • Coordinate effectively with project engineers, project coordinators, engineering coordinators, construction trades, and other team members to ensure that the design reflects the project’s objectives. • Provide comprehensive 2D drawing packages that are clear, accurate, and follow the site design standards. • Verify, update, and draft comprehensive chemical/mechanical plans, including piping layout, equipment layout, schedules, and control schematics. • Verify, update, and draft detailed piping plans including pipe routing, instrument and valve locations, and equipment layout. • Draft Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) that show the interaction among system components and equipment. • Produce detailed flow diagrams for both gas-side and water-side systems (HVAC, Hydronics, and Fire Protection). • Implement isometric views into design packages to assist in field installation and understanding. • Provide custom installation details for the more complex portions of projects. • Conduct punch-list walks on completed projects to ensure the final implementation adheres to the design intent. • Participate in the updating and drafting of new and existing products for design change, cost reductions, warranty improvements, and manufacturability. Assist with evaluation of vendors. Conduct field walks and field verifications during site trips. • Provide drawing and drafting support for details, vendor submittals, and perform engineering drafting, drawing review, drawing control, and related services required in the design of engineered systems (i.e., tank and/or vessel design). Bring your curiosity, talent for multi-tasking and collaboration, and extreme organizational skills and we’ll help you grow, pursue and fulfill what drives you - so we can make big impacts on the world, together. * At least 5 years of progressive CAD drafting/design experience of process systems * Effective verbal and written communication skills * Ability to work onsite in Manassas, VA Additional Requirements: Physical Requirement: • Position requires visits and walks at an active client site in various stages of construction.
