Assisting in the design and specification of mechanical systems, including HVAC, plumbing, and other building services.
Performing calculations, simulations, and system analyses to support project designs.
Drafting system layouts and schematics using AutoCAD, Revit, or similar software.
Conducting site visits to gather data and assess project requirements.
Collaborating with architects, structural engineers, and other stakeholders to ensure designs align with project specifications and industry standards.
Developing energy modelling and calculations to promote efficient, sustainable building performance.
Key Qualifications
Ideal candidates should have:
A bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Building Services Engineering, or a related field in the built environment, such as Architectural Engineering or Environmental Engineering.
Familiarity with design tools (e.g., Hevacomp, IES VE) and proficiency in AutoCAD or Revit.
