What Youll Do
Lead engineering design in Revit and AutoCAD, including floor plans, riser diagrams, P&IDs, schedules, and mechanical details
Lead development of reusable design tools and templates for the mechanical team
Perform studies and calculations, including pipe stress, make-up water, water storage, system capacity sizing, and energy use
Handle technical writing for specifications and basis-of-design documents
Take accountability for schedule and technical quality on assigned engineering tasks
Recognize and communicate scope and design changes promptly to project teams
Coordinate work activities with other staff members and the discipline lead
Apply hands-on experience to construction administration of CFGs projects
What Youll Bring
10+ years of mechanical design experience on commercial projects
Proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD; familiarity with Navisworks and Bluebeam
Working knowledge of applicable codes and standards (ICC, ASHRAE, or equivalent)
A Professional Engineer (PE) license, ideally with reciprocity in multiple states
Data center or mission-critical facility experience is a strong plus
Ability to work independently while coordinating with a broader engineering team
Why Critical Facility Group
Were a remote-first team, and the people on it bring years of experience in data center design, construction, and operations — even though CFG itself is only a few years old.
