• Support the site teams across time zones, write and review factory and site acceptance tests, and carry the mechanical punch list and closeout package to completion.

What we are looking for

• B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering; M.Tech an advantage.
• At least 6 years of HVAC/mechanical building-services design with a reputed EPC/GC, PMC or consultancy, including 3 years on prefabricated or containerised buildings, or on generator or plant-room installations (design, not drafting support only).
• Hands-on design of air-conditioning for hot, humid climates, ventilation and pressurisation, water and drainage, and at least one of: generator fuel, exhaust and cooling systems; UPS or battery-room cooling; E-House or electrical-room HVAC.
• Working proficiency in HAP or TRACE, Revit MEP and AutoCAD; strong Excel discipline; sound knowledge of ASHRAE, NFPA, ASME and US mechanical and plumbing codes.
• Experience on projects with a formal design comment cycle: submittal registers, RFIs and client comment sheets answered line by line.
