Mechanical Engineer- Early Career

Overview

What responsibilities will I have in this role?  (including but are not limited to):

As a Mechanical Engineer at our company, you’ll be part of a dynamic and forward-thinking team focused on evaluating and designing power systems for power-generating facilities. This is a fantastic opportunity for early-career engineers (1–3 years of experience) who are eager to grow their skills, take on new challenges, and make a meaningful impact.

In this role, you’ll collaborate across disciplines, gaining a deep understanding of how mechanical engineering integrates with electrical, civil, and other specialties. You’ll take ownership of your work by managing scope, schedule, budget, and quality with minimal oversight, while producing high-quality, error-free engineering documents that meet industry codes, standards, and client expectations.

Your work will directly support client needs and contribute to the success of complex engineering projects.

You’ll also have the chance to build strong client relationships through clear communication and professional collaboration. Site visits will be part of your experience, allowing you to walk down plant systems and structures, interface with client personnel, and see your engineering solutions in action.
