From $200,000 base DOE

Full benefits
Our client is a global engineering, procurement and construction partner delivering some of the most complex fab and cleanroom projects being built in the US today.
This is a technical authority role, not a delivery management one. You sit at the front end - defining the design basis, setting direction, challenging assumptions before they become expensive, and handing the delivery team a concept they can build to. You are not chasing drawings through construction; you are deciding what gets designed in the first place.
What you'll be doing
- Owning the mechanical concept and design basis for semiconductor fab and cleanroom projects
- Load calculations, system selections and design philosophies across cleanroom HVAC and air systems, process cooling water, chilled water, exhaust and abatement, bulk and specialty gases, and central utility buildings
- Acting as the senior technical voice with clients at the earliest project stages, including feasibility and options studies
- Setting technical standards across the mechanical group and reviewing the wider team's output
- Mentoring engineers who take your concept forward into detailed design
What we're looking for
- Degree in Mechanical Engineering; PE required
- Deep experience on large-scale capital projects in a facilities or industrial setting - fabs, cleanrooms, pharma, data centers, or comparable high-purity process environments
- Real depth in mechanical utility systems for a manufacturing environment, rather than product or R&D-side design
- The standing to be the most senior technical figure in the room with clients, contractors and consultants
- Based in or willing to relocate to the one of the locations listed at the top
