Job Description

Mechanical Project Engineer (P.E.)

HVAC & Systems Integration | Cleanroom & Radiation Shielding

Cleveland, OH • Direct Hire • $130,000–$155,000 + Performance Bonus

The Opportunity

Our client is a nationally recognized specialty contractor with 40+ years of experience designing and building cleanrooms, dry rooms, and radiation shielding systems. Their roster includes NASA, Blue Origin, Lockheed Martin, GE, Cleveland Clinic, and ASML. This is not a coordination role or a field PM position — this is the lead internal design authority for two of the company’s most technical and highest-margin service lines.

Reporting directly to the President, you will own the internal mechanical and HVAC engineering process from concept to P.E.-stamped construction documents. If you have an active P.E. license, deep HVAC expertise in controlled environments, and the technical range to work across BIM, SolidWorks component engineering, and regulatory compliance — this is a high-impact role doing genuinely complex work.

Why This Role

• Direct report to the President — immediate visibility and impact
• Work on projects for some of the most recognized names in aerospace, defense, healthcare, and semiconductor manufacturing
• Own the full engineering lifecycle — not reviewing or coordinating someone else’s work

Stable, 40+ year company with a proprietary product line and a differentiated market position

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $130,000–$155,000 depending on experience
• Performance bonus: 10–15% tied to project completions
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Retirement plan
• Paid time off

What You’ll Do

Internal Engineering & HVAC Design Leadership

• Serve as the primary design authority for modular cleanrooms and shielding systems — leading internal mechanical and HVAC design including airflow, HEPA/ULPA filtration, and pressurization
• Perform and document all mechanical engineering calculations: heat load analysis, psychrometrics, and fluid dynamics
• Review and approve internal design packages ensuring compliance with ISO cleanroom standards and radiation attenuation requirements
• Direct the creation of Revit models for architectural and MEP integration — ensuring designs are clash-free before fabrication

Technical Oversight & Quality Control

• Ensure all designs align with regulatory standards for medical, nuclear, and ISO-rated environments
• Manage the engineering of proprietary components (hinges, latches, seals) using SolidWorks for component-level modeling and structural analysis
• Conduct QC visits to fabrication facilities and project sites to verify physical installations match P.E.-approved specifications

Partner Coordination

• Serve as the expert technical point of contact for external partners, ensuring their facility systems align with internal design requirements
• Manage the RFI and submittal process — reviewing vendor data for compliance with the engineered design

What You Bring

Licensing & Education

• Active Professional Engineer (P.E.) license required — HVAC or Mechanical Engineering specialization
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline

Technical Skills

• Expert-level HVAC knowledge for controlled environments — air balancing, environmental controls, HEPA/ULPA systems
• Advanced proficiency in Revit/AutoCAD for BIM and facility integration
• SolidWorks proficiency for component-level modeling and assembly analysis
• Minimum 8 years of experience in design-build construction

Core Competencies

• Ability to take a project from concept to P.E.-stamped construction documents
• Proficiency in statics, dynamics, and thermal analysis
• Ability to translate complex engineering requirements to fabrication and installation teams
