Mechanical Engineer – Utilities

About the role

The Mechanical Engineer – Utilities will be responsible for managing, optimizing, and maintaining the stadium’s critical utility infrastructure. This role ensures reliable, safe, and efficient operation of water systems, HVAC, and the reverse‑osmosis plant while supporting capital projects and continuous‑improvement initiatives.

Key responsibilities

• Design, specify, and commission utility systems such as chillers, cooling towers, pumps, compressors, water‑treatment units, and HVAC networks.
• Develop and maintain P&IDs, equipment specifications, load calculations, and utility balance sheets.
• Troubleshoot, perform root‑cause analysis, and implement corrective actions for system failures or performance degradation.
• Lead or support capital improvement projects from feasibility studies through procurement, construction oversight, and commissioning.
• Conduct energy audits, lifecycle‑cost analyses, and efficiency‑optimization initiatives (e.g., heat recovery, variable‑speed drives, system tuning).
• Prepare operating procedures, safety checklists, MOC documentation, and training materials for operations and maintenance teams.
• Monitor and report KPIs such as system uptime, energy intensity, water consumption, maintenance cost, and carbon footprint.
• Coordinate with cross‑functional teams and manage technical scopes of work.

Required profile

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering.
• 7‑10 years of engineering experience in industrial utilities, plant operations, or facility engineering.
• Strong knowledge of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, piping hydraulics, and rotating equipment.
• Experience with equipment specifications, vendor evaluation, and construction/commissioning support.
• Understanding of project controls including budgeting, scheduling, risk assessment, and change management.
• Excellent analytical, communication, and cross‑functional collaboration skills.
• Knowledge of occupational health, safety, and environmental compliance standards.
