Design & Engineering Support Assist in the design and development of HVAC systems, mechanical layouts, ductwork, and airflow paths for modular infrastructure. Contribute to piping and fluid system designs including line sizing,ponent selection, and routing planning. Support sheet metalponent design, structural framing concepts, and modular enclosure mechanical interfaces. Perform basic engineering calculations including heat loads, pressure drops, equipment sizing, and material strength checks. Participate in dynamic analysis activities such as vibration evaluation, fatigue considerations, and mechanical stability checks. Drafting, Modeling & Documentation Collaborate with drafters and senior engineers to produce mechanical drawings, 3D models, and BOMs. Generate markups, redlines, and revision updates for design packages. Ensure designs follow internal standards, industry codes, and project specifications. Project & Cross-Functional Collaboration Work closely with engineers across civil, structural, and electrical disciplines to ensure coordinated designs. Support manufacturing and assembly teams by responding to design questions, updating drawings, and resolving production issues. Participate in design reviews, hazard assessments, and manufacturability evaluations. Testing, Validation & Implementation Assist in prototype builds, system testing, airflow and thermal validation, andmissioning activities. Support root-cause investigation and corrective actions related to mechanical design issues. Document results, lessons learned, and rmendations for continuous improvement. Standards, Compliance & Quality Learn and relevant industry codes and standards (ASHRAE, ASTM, AWS, ASME, etc.). Ensure designs meet safety, reliability, environmental, and durability requirements for modular applications. Contribute to the development and refinement of internal design tools, templates, and processes.
