About the Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Plant Engineer to support a pharmaceutical facility expansion project.

Key Responsibilities

  • Review HVAC, utility, piping, plumbing, and equipment design packages and provide operationally focused feedback
  • Review P&IDs, equipment specifications, utility loads, HVAC concepts, and construction documentation
  • Participate in project team meetings and help evaluate design options for HVAC and utility systems
  • Work through construction specifications and drawings to confirm solutions will perform as intended once handed over to operations
  • Advocate for maintainability and long-term operational needs throughout the design process
  • Following the design phase (approximately 9 months), potentially transition into facility and utility operations support

Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of engineering experience in HVAC and/or water pretreatment and plant utilities
  • Experience reviewing engineering design documents (P&IDs, specifications, drawings)
  • Background supporting facility expansion or capital projects, ideally as the owner-side engineering interface
  • Working knowledge of piping and plumbing systems
  • Strong communication skills for collaborating with project teams and external engineering partners

Preferred Qualifications

  • HVAC controls background
  • Experience with energy recovery systems, such as capturing heat before it leaves the building
  • Exposure to laboratory and general-use building environments

Why This Role

  • Shape a pharmaceutical facility expansion from the earliest design stages
  • Direct influence on design decisions for HVAC, water pretreatment, and utility systems
  • Work alongside a leading external engineering team and internal project leadership
  • Clear career path from project engineering into long-term facility and utility operations
  • Opportunity to work with modern utility and energy recovery technologies
