The Opportunity
As a Senior Mechanical Engineer, you will have the opportunity to lead a wide variety of challenging projects. This role is focused on Defence, building and infrastructure projects across NSW, VIC, SA and WA. You will work with our buildings and infrastructure teams on a significant number of buildings projects to support Commercial, Defence infrastructure, transport and water infrastructure. This role will see you involved in HVAC design and project leading. Having experience in either of these areas will be essential in this role.
As a Senior Mechanical Engineer, you will plan, schedule, and conduct work requiring judgment in the independent evaluation, selection, and adaptation of engineering techniques, procedures, and criteria. You will perform work which involves conventional engineering practice but may include a variety of complex features such as conflicting design requirements, non-conventional HVAC design and complex coordination requirements.
You will provide technical guidance to designers and less experienced engineers. Your skills and experience will be valued and have direct impact on cost containment, efficiency, profitability or operations.
As part of our team, you will work with a diverse group of talented people who are committed to supporting our clients through long-term partnership arrangements; not to mention a key contributor to delivering projects.
Our team is also exploring new ways to integrate virtual reality and artificial intelligence on projects, offering you the opportunity to future proof and broaden your skills in the digital sphere.
Who are you?
As a Senior Mechanical Engineer in our buildings team, you will have experience in detailed designs, front end engineering design (FEED), consulting or complex engineering projects from the defence, commercial, education, water, industrial, transport or infrastructure sectors.
You will work with OEMs on product selection and installation but have the ability to customise and innovate, delivering unique solutions in challenging environments. Exposure to condition assessments, data sheets, safety processes, national standards and regulation will also be vital.
You will have the following skills and experience:
Design experience with knowledge of local industry standards and local codes.
Proven ability to work in engineering teams and manage projects to scope, budget and program.
Advanced skills with Revit and CAMEL are preferred.
You are a Chartered Engineer (CPEng) or have eligibility to apply for this accreditation.
