Sr. Mechanical PM: The Meticulous Engineer who Untangles What Others Cannot
About The Position
Maxson Engineering is looking for a Senior Mechanical PM who brings technical depth, relentless attention to detail, and the drive to take complex government and private sector projects from initial scope all the way to completion — with nothing left to chance. You will own mechanical projects end-to-end — leading design, managing teams, navigating regulatory requirements, and resolving technical constraints across HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, and specialty mechanical systems. Because you are wired to research before you conclude — working independently through the facts and variables until the answer is clear — you won’t speculate on root causes, you’ll find them. Because you operate with urgency and stay sharp when priorities stack up, you’ll keep complex, multi-discipline projects organized and moving. And because thoroughness is simply how you work, the design details, code conformance, and project documentation you own will be right — completely and every time.
Requirements
- Minimum 10 years’ experience with relevant system design. Typically possessing expertise in specific design areas (e.g., central plant, cleanrooms, etc.)
- Proficiency in design of typical building mechanical systems with an emphasis on HVAC systems but also including plumbing and fire protection systems
- Experience with design of specialty mechanical systems including industrial ventilation systems, process piping systems, and other specialty systems
- Understanding of regulatory and code requirements
- Experience in team leadership and managing and mentoring junior staff
- Professional Engineer (PE) license
- Bachelor of Science in Engineering or equivalent experience
Responsibilities
- Own mechanical projects from scope development and design through construction administration and closeout
- Design and troubleshoot HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, industrial ventilation, and process piping systems
- Apply deep knowledge of specialty mechanical systems including cleanrooms and central plant design
- Navigate regulatory and code requirements with precision — nothing overlooked, nothing assumed
- Lead, mentor, and hold junior engineering staff accountable with clarity and consistency
- Keep multiple complex projects moving simultaneously without losing detail, quality, or momentum
