Senior Mechanical Designer CAN Organizational Unit Architectural/Engineering Full time Education Bachelor's Degree Travel Availability At Tandem, we believe great architecture and engineering happen when talented people are empowered to challenge convention, think boldly, and work together. We are a multidisciplinary architecture and engineering firm bringing architects, engineers, designers, and project professionals together to solve complex challenges and create spaces and systems that make an impact. Design boldly. We're growing, and we're looking for experienced professionals who want more than just their next project. We design with intention and understand the impact our work has on our clients, communities, and each other. Take responsibility for your work, your projects, and the commitments you make to your team and clients. We're big enough to deliver complex, multidisciplinary projects — yet small enough to care. That means experienced professionals have the opportunity to influence projects, mentor the next generation, work directly with clients and leadership, and help shape how we continue to grow. We are looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer. TheSenior Mechanical Engineeris responsible for, but not limited to, the following: Building Mechanical Systems Design Lead the design of building mechanical systems, including: heating, ventilation, air conditioning, boilers, chilled water, hydronic systems, compressed air, natural gas, plumbing piping systems, fluid delivery systems, heat pump designs, steam and condensation systems, variable refrigerant systems, fire protection systems and energy conservation initiatives. Provide technical leadership on projects, ensuring designs meet performance, code, budget, and schedule requirements.



Oversee and review mechanical design work prepared by intermediate and junior team members, providing guidance and mentorship. Technical Leadership & Innovation Seek and apply new technology, tools, and methodologies to improve design efficiency, constructability, and lifecycle performance. Prepare and review technical reports, engineering documents, and value engineering analyses. Develop and maintain standards, guidelines, and best practices for mechanical design within the team. Act as the primary mechanical engineering liaison with clients, contractors, and other stakeholders to ensure compliance with project scope and requirements. Provide senior-level technical consultation, including analyzing facility mechanical system problems in the field and recommending practical, cost and energy effective solutions. Project & Scope Development Lead the development of mechanical scope of work for new projects, including engineering feasibility studies, owner reviews, and construction bid package development, issue for permit/tender documents and 30-, 60-and 90-day reviews. Support proposal and fee development for mechanical engineering services. Provide input into project planning, scheduling, and resource allocation from a mechanical discipline perspective. Oversee the shop drawing review process, responses to Requests for Information (RFIs),



and preparation of field observation reports to ensure timely processing and alignment with project milestones. Ensure that construction work is in compliance with mechanical plans, specifications, and applicable codes/standards. Support commissioning activities and project close-out, including review of as-built documentation and operational issues. Lead or oversee mechanical cost estimating for developed scopes of work for assigned projects. Identify and recommend value engineering opportunities to improve project performance and reduce overall cost. Provide mentorship, coaching, and technical guidance to intermediate and junior engineers and technologists. Contribute to a collaborative, multi-discipline, team-based environment and help build internal mechanical engineering capabilities. Travel Frequent travel, including international travel, to client sites and facilities as required. Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a Mechanical Engineering Technology diploma with equivalent experience. CET with extensive relevant experience may be considered for a senior technologist track. Minimum 7–10 yearsof mechanical engineering design experience in building systems, including: heating, ventilation, air conditioning, boilers, hot water, chillers, chilled water pumps, hydronic piping, ductwork layout, natural gas, plumbing, domestic water, sanitary piping, storm piping,heat pump designs, steam and condensation systems, variable refrigerant systems, fire protection systems and energy conservation initiatives Strong understanding of consulting engineering project phases: feasibility studies, schematic design, detailed design, construction documents, tendering, construction/administration, and project clo
