About MetroCorps
MetroCorps Private Limited is a newly established project management company in Gachibowli, Hyderabad, delivering engineering design, procurement and project controls for design-build projects of US clients across Africa, the GCC and Europe. Every project is designed through conceptual, developmental, pre-final and final stages with licensed US Professional Engineers, and taken from the first page of the RFP to handover. Our programme includes modular and containerised living units, substation renovation, medium-voltage switchgear, UPS and generator systems, wastewater treatment plants and building renovation. Join our founding team.
Employer: MetroCorps Private Limited, Gachibowli, Hyderabad (www.metrocorps.com).
The role
We are looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to carry the mechanical content of several concurrent international design-build projects (containerised living units, a generator plant, a UPS replacement and a switchgear E-House) from basis of design to commissioning. You will produce the calculations, specifications and equipment schedules, hold the design conversation with the US-based Professional Engineer, and answer client design reviews line by line.
What you will do
- Produce the mechanical calculations: cooling loads for a hot, humid climate, ventilation and pressurisation, duct and pipe sizing, pump and fan selection, water and drainage, fuel storage, generator airflow and battery-room ventilation.
- Develop the mechanical basis of design, equipment schedules and specifications for HVAC, plumbing, fuel, exhaust, ventilation and fire-protection interfaces to ASHRAE, NFPA and US codes.
- Hold the design conversation with the US-based Professional Engineer, direct the draftsman on mechanical drawings, and coordinate with the electrical and civil disciplines to resolve clashes before issue.
- Answer client design-review comments line by line, and track RFIs and submittals through the submittal register.
- Write the technical part of enquiries for HVAC, pumps, fuel, exhaust and fire-suppression equipment, review supplier submittals, and maintain the unit-by-unit mechanical bill of materials for prefabricated scopes.
- Support the site teams across time zones, write and review factory and site acceptance tests, and carry the mechanical punch list and closeout package to completion.
What we are looking for
- B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering; M.Tech an advantage.
- At least 6 years of HVAC/mechanical building-services design with a reputed EPC/GC, PMC or consultancy, including 3 years on prefabricated or containerised buildings, or on generator or plant-room installations (design, not drafting support only).
