Staff Mechanical Design Engineer (EPC) — Engineer of Record for Facilities That Matter
San Francisco, CA | Full-Time | $187,500 – $247,500
The Opportunity
There's mechanical design, and then there's owning every mechanical and plumbing system across chemical process plants, hazardous occupancy spaces, clean rooms, and labs — as the Engineer of Record. Our client, a rapidly scaling clean energy innovator, is hiring a Staff Mechanical Design Engineer to carry that ownership from specification through field commissioning. If you want your engineering judgment to be the final word, and Bay Area compensation to go with it, read on.
