South East, US
$125,000-$140,000
Our client is an established leader in the design, construction, and operation of renewable and critical energy infrastructure across Southeast Texas. With projects ranging from utility-scale solar to energy storage and sustainable thermal systems, they're seeking a Mechanical Engineer to support the design, development, and performance of high-efficiency energy systems in the field.
This is a high-impact opportunity for an engineer who thrives on solving complex problems, working cross-functionally, and contributing to tangible, real-world results.
Key Responsibilities:
Design, evaluate, and optimize mechanical systems for renewable energy facilities, including solar mounting systems, piping, HVAC, and structural components.
Support equipment selection, layout, and integration into full project designs in collaboration with electrical and civil engineering teams.
Perform thermal and fluid analysis, load calculations, and mechanical stress evaluations as needed.
Prepare technical documentation including mechanical specifications, datasheets, and design drawings.
Work closely with construction and field teams to ensure design intent is met during installation and commissioning.
Troubleshoot mechanical system issues and support performance optimization during operations.
Ensure compliance with industry codes (ASME, ASTM, API) and internal quality and safety standards.
Assist in cost estimation and procurement of mechanical components and systems.
Coordinate with third-party vendors, contractors, and consultants to deliver on time and within budget.
Experience Required:
3-8+ years of mechanical engineering experience in energy, power generation, industrial, or renewable sectors.
Proven experience in mechanical system design, thermal systems, piping, or structural analysis.
Strong understanding of codes, standards, and practices relevant to mechanical systems in energy infrastructure
Proficiency in CAD tools (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks) and familiarity with simulation software (e.g., ANSYS, Flow Simulation)
Field experience supporting construction, commissioning, or O&M is a strong plus
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field (PE license or progress toward PE a plus)
Excellent collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills
What You'll Gain:
The chance to work on meaningful projects that impact the reliability and sustainability of energy systems in Southeast Texas
A collaborative environment where engineers have a voice and can grow into leadership roles
Exposure to renewable energy, energy efficiency, and next-gen infrastructure technologies
Competitive pay, robust benefits, and long-term career development
