Key Responsibilities

• Apply engineering fundamentals to support the design, build, and evaluation of mechanical systems and skid-mounted equipment.
• Contribute to design execution, fabrication support, and testing phases while working alongside multidisciplinary teams.
• Develop comprehensive engineering documentation such as layout drawings, piping and instrumentation diagrams, calculations (e.g., structural or load-related), specifications, and material lists.
• Create and maintain 2D and 3D models using industry-standard design tools (e.g., CAD platforms).
• Produce detailed test plans and procedures for system verification and acceptance testing in alignment with internal quality standards.
• Perform sizing and selection of mechanical components such as pumps, vessels, motors, and thermal systems.
• Lead or support troubleshooting, investigations, and validation efforts related to manufactured components and assembled systems.
• Coordinate with vendors, constructors, and stakeholders throughout all project stages—from concept through completion—to ensure requirements are met.
• Review supplier deliverables including drawings and procedures, and participate in inspections or site visits as needed.
• Collaborate with other engineering disciplines (e.g., controls, software) to ensure integrated system design.
• Provide technical direction or mentorship within project teams when required.
• Maintain effective communication with clients and internal stakeholders to support project delivery and satisfaction.
• Support procurement-related engineering tasks, including resolving quality concerns and maintaining schedules.
