Senior Mechanical Designer 1 -- Energy & Industrial

Sargent & Lundy•Chicago, IL

13d•$77,890 - $118,999•Hybrid

About The Position

This role offers a hybrid work arrangement, with three days a week in the office and two days remote. As a member of the mechanical design team, you will work with multi-disciplined engineering and design project teams to develop mechanical physical layout drawings in a 3-D model. This position involves challenging assignments including the design of mechanical systems, and investigating, troubleshooting, and solving a wide variety of mechanical design issues. You will utilize 3D modeling software tools to generate mechanical design schematics and participate in the coordination of detailed design phases for all aspects of an integrated mechanical design model. Support will be provided to other designers and project team members to ensure a complete and timely design. You will independently and as a member of a design team, plan and execute mechanical design deliverables, such as general arrangements, piping isometrics, piping composites, pipe support drawings, and equipment location drawings. Accompany engineers in field walkdowns and data gathering at client facilities. Provide guidance to others in the use of drafting tools, and also act as a mentor in the development of less experienced drafters and designers.
