What You'll Do

• Set technical direction and lead a high-performing MEP team
• Ensure design quality that's code-compliant, constructible, and future-ready
• Mentor engineering leaders and cultivate a high-accountability culture
• Partner with PMs and clients to deliver on time and with precision
• Drive innovation across workflows, tools, and sustainable design practices
  
  

What You Bring

• 15+ years in MEP engineering; 8+ in technical leadership
• Professional Engineer (PE) license
• Strong command of complex systems, design standards, and tools like Revit
• A track record of growing teams and delivering at scale
• Bonus: commissioning, sustainability, or digital ops experience
  
  

Why Meade

• Leadership is earned. You'll grow people, not just projects.
• We think long-term. Decisions are made with foresight and care.
• Precision is the standard. Every detail counts.
