Senior Mechanical Engineer

About the Role Senior Mechanical Engineer role within Kiewit's Industrial & Water Engineering Group. You will design, coordinate, and deliver mechanical systems for diverse industrial facilities, from biogas plants and bulk solids handling to water and wastewater treatment, working with construction teams to turn engineered concepts into safe, constructible, and cost-effective solutions. You’ll drive scope and design decisions in fast-paced design-build environments and have visibility into field-built outcomes. What You'll Do

• Provide design, coordination, and oversight of mechanical systems typical for biogas, bulk solids material handling, water and wastewater treatment, pump stations and pipeline conveyance, groundwater remediation, stormwater recycling, and other industrial facilities including process piping, conveying systems, dust collection, general plant/facility water, compressed air, steam, and gas systems.
• Mechanical system design includes preparing calculations for both pressurized and gravity-driven systems to size lines, material selection, and correct Code requirement application.
• Manage the completion of all project design calculations and equipment specifications for those areas, including bulk solids conveyors, dust collection equipment, bins/tanks, pumps, heat exchangers, boilers, and other process equipment.
• Coordinate and communicate all aspects of the project’s mechanical design within multi-disciplinary teams; including the management and oversight of third-party engineering.
• Review project contracts, customer Requests for Proposals (RFPs), professional service agreements, or other contractual documents and incorporate into the design as required to meet project goals.
• Provide oversight and coordination of projects, working with the assigned design managers and project managers, to meet project budgets and schedules for all mechanical discipline activities.
• Manage other design partners (internal and external) including construction partners, equipment suppliers, and other engineers and designers assigned to the project or task; review work progress and results.
• Perform detailed technical bid analyses for equipment typical for biogas, bulk solids material handling, etc. What We're Looking For
• Minimum 10 years of experience in mechanical or process engineering.
• Specific experience with one or more of the following: balance of plant design, biogas, bulk solids material handling, water and wastewater treatment, pump stations and pipeline conveyance, groundwater remediation, stormwater recycling, process piping, industrial boilers and chillers, or experience with cooling distribution units (CDU's), Computer room handling units (CRAH), fan walls, and containment modules for air cooling for industrial facilities.
• Familiar with current drawing and technical tools, programs, and software with an understanding of design documentation creation and layouts.
• Able to exhibit flexibility in work assignments while maintaining a growth mindset and continuing to develop in their technical and professional career.
• This is a great opportunity to showcase your mechanical design skills and implement innovative solutions and make a lasting impact as Kiewit expands in the industrial marketplace.
• If you desire to diversify your experience and work on different types of facilities and EPC, large-scale projects, we want to talk with you. Compensation & Benefits
• Relocation assistance to the district office in Lenexa, Kansas.
