MEP Design Engineer

As an MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) Design Engineer, you will be responsible for creating detailed designs and specifications for various building systems, including heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), electrical, plumbing, and fire protection. Your primary objective will be to ensure that these systems meet the requirements of the building codes, regulations, and standards while optimizing energy efficiency, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. Key Responsibilities : Design Development : Collaborate with architects, structural engineers, and other stakeholders to develop MEP designs that integrate seamlessly with overall building plans. This involves conceptualizing, planning, and creating detailed drawings and schematics for MEP systems. System Analysis : Conduct thorough analysis and calculations to ensure that MEP designs meet performance criteria such as thermal comfort, indoor air quality, lighting levels, water supply, and drainage requirements. Utilize software tools and simulations to optimize system performance. Code Compliance : Stay updated on relevant building codes, regulations, and industry standards related to MEP systems. Ensure that designs comply with all applicable codes and obtain necessary permits and approvals from regulatory authorities. Sustainability and Energy Efficiency : Integrate sustainable design principles and energy-efficient technologies into MEP systems to minimize environmental impact and operating costs. Evaluate renewable energy sources, energy recovery systems, and efficient equipment selection. Cost Estimation : Prepare cost estimates and budgets for MEP systems, considering factors such as material costs, labor expenses, and ongoing maintenance requirements. Work closely with project managers to ensure that designs align with budgetary constraints. Coordination and Communication : Collaborate with project teams, contractors, vendors, and clients to coordinate the implementation of MEP designs throughout the construction process. Communicate effectively to resolve design conflicts, address technical issues, and ensure project milestones are met. Quality Assurance : Conduct thorough reviews and inspections of MEP installations to verify compliance with design specifications and quality standards. Identify deficiencies and implement corrective measures as needed to ensure optimal system performance and longevity. Requirements : Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field. Master's degree or professional certification (e.g., PE license) is a plus. Proven experience (typically 3-5 years) in MEP design and engineering within the construction industry. Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD, Revit) and MEP design tools. Experience with simulation software (e.g., EnergyPlus, TRACE 700) is desirable. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail. Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities, with the capacity to work effectively in a team environment. Knowledge of sustainable design practices, building codes, and industry standards. Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and prioritize tasks effectively. Familiarity with project management principles and construction processes. Join our team and contribute your expertise to the creation of innovative and sustainable building environments as an MEP Design Engineer. Job Specification
