As a Project Engineer, you’ll be the operational hub for complex mechanical (HVAC/Plumbing) projects—partnering with Project Managers and field teams to keep scope, schedule, cost, quality, and safety on track. You’ll touch everything from documentation and scheduling to BIM/CADD coordination, vendor management, and client communication.

What You’ll Do

Project controls & docs: Own RFIs, submittals, change orders (COR/CO), meeting minutes, and logs.
Scheduling: Update master schedules (labor, equipment, fabrication, rentals); flag risks and pull-forward options.
Cost management: Support job cost control, vendor pricing, POs, and progress billings.
Field coordination: Assist QA/QC, pre-task/hazard analyses, site walks, and toolbox talks; drive punchlist closure.
BIM/CADD: Coordinate model updates and field integration with VDC/CADD partners.
Procurement: Source materials, track deliveries, resolve shortages; maintain vendor relationships.
Client/GC/Subs: Prep for and participate in project meetings; support subcontractor selection and oversight.
Closeout: Assemble O&M manuals, as-builts, and final turnover documents.

What You’ll Bring

Background: Construction Management or Mechanical Engineering degree and 3–5 years in commercial construction or 10+ years relevant mechanical construction experience in lieu of degree.
Industry exposure: HVAC/Plumbing mechanical contractor experience on mid-to-large commercial projects (preferred).
Tools: Bluebeam, MS Project, Excel/Word; familiarity with BIM/CADD workflows (Revit/Navis/AutoCAD a plus).
Strengths: Organized, detail-driven, great follow-through; clear written/verbal communication; collaborative with GC/owner and trade partners.
Work setup: Onsite/in-office; sponsorship not available; remote option not available.
