Senior Mechanical Engineer (Thermal) (NSW)

Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you'll manage and coordinate HVAC design across construction and estimating projects, ensuring designs meet project requirements, Australian standards, timelines and quality expectations.

Key Responsibilities.

• Document Package Transfer In / Out: Attend the documentation hand-over process from Pre to Post-Sales teams once a project has been won or has a very high likelihood; attend the document package and transfer process for projects going from Post-Sales to Project Management.
• ICA Technical Reviews: On receipt of the Document Package, interrogate the documentation to ensure buildability and budget compliance; review all aspects of the proposal, from Statement of Compliance through to Commissioning and Hand-over, including provision of Training and Documentation requirements to the customer; act as technical authority for engineering decisions and design philosophies throughout the project lifecycle.
• Engineering re-estimate: Once Technical Review is complete, engage with our partners, contractors, and vendors to assure the most cost-effective and technically sound solution has been selected by the Pre-Sales teams; work with Product Managers, Service Teams, and our source factories (where necessary), to ensure the best possible and cost-effective solution has been selected for the project.
• Technical Submittals post Purchase Order: During the Post-Sales phase, attend to all project meetings on scope of supply, technical qualifications and testing procedures and programs are understood by Vertiv associates, contractors, other vendors, and our customer; assist with the ownership of the project through to delivery, commissioning and hand-over; ensure a thorough hand-over process to Project Management when the units have arrived in country.
• Site and As-Built Drawing Management: Operate a comprehensive documentation register for all project files and ensure the latest revisions are uploaded to the company server; check new revisions for details affecting Vertiv’s scope of supply and quickly communicate any impacts to Vertiv’s technical, cost and schedule impacts, back to the customer and the Sales and Projects team for management of variations; provide a completed set of project documentation to the Project Management Team on delivery of the project for hand-over to the client.
• Technical Procurement Specification: Where necessary, prepare a detailed Scope of Supply to Procurement, where Vertiv contractors and vendors are required to undertake works on our behalf; documentation should be thorough enough to be used by procurement to gain the necessary number of quotations and enable tensioning of vendors to occur; scopes of supply should also ensure there are no areas of overlap or gaps in scope, reducing our risk of double-ups or variations from our vendors.
• Scope Changes: Liaise with Sales and Project Managers to capture all site, scope and testing departures from our original submission, are captured, and highlighted to the customer; provide variation documentation as and when required to ensure entry margins are not eroded through the span of the project.
• Technical Submittals: Manage revisions and updates to site documentation post the Purchase Order; this will include incorporating documentation changes into revised Statements of Compliance and other affected documents.
• Drawings: See Technical Submittal above; work with PSA team to have as-built drawings developed and updated as necessary, ready for site hand-over.
• Continuous Improvement: Lead the identification of engineering lessons learned across project delivery and ensure they are translated into actionable design and process improvements; identify recurring technical, design or delivery issues and drive corrective actions across future projects; contribute to the development and refinement of engineering standards, templates and design tools; share technical insights and best practices across engineering, sales and project delivery teams; promote a culture of continuous improvement and engineering accountability across the business.
• WHS, Environment & Quality: Comply with all Work, Health & Safety, Environment and Quality obligations; actively promote safety in the workplace.
