Plan B Climatech · Manhattan, New York
Mechanical Engineer (Mission Critical) – Renowned MEP Firm, New York
About the firm
Our client is an established, principal-led architecture, engineering and interior design firm with more than 35 years in practice and offices in New York and Pennsylvania. Its principals stay hands-on in every project, from planning and design through to completion.
Healthcare is one of the firm's core markets. It delivers MEP engineering for some of the largest health systems in the Northeast, with client relationships going back more than 20 years, across hospitals, ambulatory centers, ICUs and specialist clinical suites.
The firm also works in mission critical, life sciences, education and research, so you'll have variety alongside a strong healthcare pipeline.
The role
You will own the mechanical design on the firm's healthcare projects from schematic design through construction administration. Recent work shows the scope: a 165,000 SF ambulatory center, a trauma care ICU and hospital core expansion, cardiac care and cath lab suites, interventional radiology and a pediatric OR.
Because architects, engineers and interior designers sit under one roof, you'll work alongside the design team from day one rather than as a downstream consultant. Expect some travel to hospital sites in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. There is a clear path to Senior Mechanical Engineer, with scope to work on mission critical and life science projects too.
Key responsibilities
Design HVAC systems for healthcare spaces: ORs, ICUs, isolation rooms, pharmacy (USP 797/800), imaging and labs
Run load calculations, energy analysis and equipment selections (chillers, boilers, AHUs, exhaust, humidification)
Lead pressurisation, air change and filtration strategies to meet infection-control requirements
Produce and check drawings, specifications and calculations from SD through CDs
Coordinate with in-house architects, structural, electrical and plumbing teams in Revit
Survey existing conditions in occupied hospitals and plan phased, live-environment works
Support construction administration: submittals, RFIs, site visits and punch lists
Attend client and design meetings with hospital facilities and infection-control teams
Guide and review the work of junior engineers and designers
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related)
5+ years of HVAC design at an MEP consulting or A/E firm
Healthcare project experience, ideally hospitals or ambulatory care in live environments
Working knowledge of FGI Guidelines, ASHRAE 170, NFPA 99/101, and the building and energy codes of NY, NJ and PA
Load calculation and modelling software: Trane TRACE, Carrier HAP or equivalent
Proficiency in Revit (MEP) and AutoCAD
Clear communicator, comfortable in front of hospital clients
PE license in NY, NJ or PA (or eligible for comity)
LEED AP or WELL AP
Experience preparing submissions for NJ or PA Department of Health review, and Infection Control Risk Assessments (ICRA)
Work for major regional health systems in NY, NJ or PA
Exposure to mission critical, data center or life science / lab projects
Experience in an integrated architecture and engineering practice
What's on offer
Medical, dental and vision cover, 401(k) and PTO
PE exam and professional development support
Hybrid working
A defined route to Senior Mechanical Engineer and Project Manager
