• Quality & Standards: Ensure all mechanical designs and installations comply with local codes (Egyptian Code), international standards (ASHRAE, NFPA, ASPE, SMACNA), and project specifications.

• Facilitate effective project coordination with various disciplines, clients, and contractors to ensure seamless integration of mechanical systems.

• Develop comprehensive technical documentation, including specifications, reports, and submittals.

• Ensure all designs and installations adhere to the latest mechanical codes and standards, including HVAC, Plumbing, and Firefighting systems.

• Actively participate in design reviews and value engineering exercises to optimize project outcomes.

• Manage multiple tasks efficiently, maintaining high-quality output within project deadlines.

Skills & Technologies: 

• Proficiency in AutoCAD and Revit MEP (BIM experience is highly preferred).

• Strong command of design software such as HAP (Hourly Analysis Program), Elite, or equivalent hydraulic calculation tools.

Standards Knowledge: Familiarity with NFPA, ASHRAE, and SMACNA codes, as well as Egyptian engineering regulations.

Soft Skills: Excellent problem-solving abilities, high attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and the ability to work under tight project deadlines.

Languages: Fluent in Arabic; strong command of written and spoken English (for technical reporting and documentation).

Growth Opportunities: This role offers significant potential for professional development within a leading engineering firm. You will have the chance to work on diverse and challenging projects, expanding your technical expertise and leadership capabilities. We are committed to fostering a learning environment where continuous improvement and career advancement are highly valued.

Team & Culture: Join a collaborative and supportive team of engineers and construction professionals dedicated to excellence. Our culture emphasizes teamwork, open communication, and mutual respect. We believe in empowering our employees and celebrating collective achievements in a fast-paced, engaging work environment.
