Sargent & Lundy•Tampa, FL

8d•Hybrid

About The Position

The Mechanical Designer 2 independently develops mechanical physical design deliverables and coordinates with multidisciplinary teams to produce integrated 3D layouts and related mechanical design documents for Oil & Gas and Power projects. The role involves developing mechanical physical layout drawings in a 3D model environment, resolving mechanical design issues through investigation and troubleshooting, and supporting coordination across all phases of mechanical design modeling. The designer plans and executes detailed deliverables such as general arrangements, piping isometrics, piping composites, pipe support drawings, and equipment location drawings. The position also reviews mechanical equipment outlines and interface points, coordinates deliverables with engineering and other disciplines, mentors junior drafters and designers, and may support field walkdowns and client site data gathering. The schedule is hybrid, with some days in the office and some days working from home.

Requirements

Associate degree in drafting, or a high school diploma with drafting coursework or equivalent technical experience.
Six or more years of detailed physical design experience in mechanical general arrangements, piping systems, and support design.
Proficiency with 3D plant layout tools such as CADWorx Plant, CADWorx PID, AutoCAD Plant 3D, or similar systems.
Ability to interface effectively with engineering and design teams from other disciplines in an integrated plant design environment.
The employer does not sponsor employees for U.S. work authorization.

Nice To Haves

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology or a related discipline.
Proficiency with AutoCAD, CADWorx, MicroStation, or similar design platforms used for plant layout and drafting.
Ability to travel as needed for client meetings, site visits, and field data gathering.
Interest in learning and effectively using emerging technologies where relevant to the role; experience with AI, automation, programming, or similar technologies is valued but not required.

Responsibilities

Develop mechanical physical layout drawings in a 3D model environment as part of integrated engineering and design project teams.
Perform mechanical design assignments and resolve design issues through investigation and troubleshooting.
Use 3D modeling tools to generate mechanical design schematics and support coordination of all phases of the mechanical design model.
Plan and execute mechanical design deliverables, including general arrangements, piping isometrics, piping composites, pipe support drawings, and equipment location drawings.
Review mechanical equipment outlines and interface points and coordinate related design deliverables with engineering and other disciplines.
Provide day-to-day guidance and mentoring to junior drafters and designers in drafting tools and design development practices.
Participate in or support field walkdowns and client site data gathering when required.
