Job description

Behind every skyline is a community of Engineers.

At Jordan & Skala Engineers (JSE), we design the plumbing systems behind the multifamily and mixed-use buildings shaping growing cities, skylines, and neighborhoods- everything from mid-rise and high-rise mixed-use towers to garden-style communities, including podium and garage-wrap construction. If you like complex buildings, thoughtful coordination, and seeing your work move from model to jobsite, you’ll fit in well here!

We’re looking for a Plumbing Engineer/Designer who can own design, collaborate in a technology driven BIM environment, and support projects through construction.

What You’ll Do

Plumbing & Fire Protection Design

Design domestic water, storm drainage, sanitary waste and vent, and natural gas distribution systems
Size, select, schedule, and specify plumbing components including fixtures, specialties, and equipment
Support fire protection design (including pumps, standpipes, and specialty systems)
Produce clear, coordinated documentation for new construction and renovations

Multifamily & Mixed-Use Project Delivery

Lead plumbing design for a range of building types, including:
- High-rise and mid-rise apartments (including towers requiring complex riser strategies)
- Garden-style and low-rise communities with repeatable unit stacks and phased construction
- Student housing with high fixture density and durability-focused specifications
- Luxury multifamily with extensive amenity areas (pools, fitness, club rooms, rooftop/terrace programs, etc.)
- Mixed-use buildings that combine residential with retail/restaurant and other street-level uses
- Podium and garage-wrap configurations that add coordination complexity across levels and occupancies
Coordinate plumbing systems in a real-time Revit/BIM workflow alongside mechanical, electrical, structural, and architectural teams
Contribute to practical, code-aligned solutions for the “hard parts” of these buildings- tight shafts, repetitive stacks, equipment room constraints, and fast schedules

Construction Support

Support construction administration including submittal reviews, RFI responses, field observations, and documentation updates
Travel for job site visits and building surveys as required

Required

What will make you successful

Strong working proficiency in Revit (plumbing design within a BIM workflow)
Solid understanding of plumbing codes and how systems interact in dense, multidisciplinary projects
Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline (or equivalent experience, if applicable)
AutoCAD proficiency (Revit is primary; AutoCAD may be used for specific deliverables)

Preferred

EIT or P.E. license (or clear path toward licensure)
