This Opportunity
WSP is currently initiating a search for an Early Career Mechanical Engineer to work out of Denver, CO.  Be involved in projects with our Federal Programs Team and be a part of a growing organization that meets our client’s objectives and solves their challenges.

Your Impact
•    Under guidance of senior manager, perform mechanical engineering design and production support from               project inception through construction. 
•    Leverage analytical and design skills and ability to solve complex technical problems in professional discipline.
•    Utilize advanced analytical techniques and computer software tools and applications (i.e. REVIT, AutoCAD,              Trace 3D Plus) in solving technical/mechanical engineering problems.
•    Exhibit learned practices to produce high quality technical and professional deliverables on Federal                         Government/military projects.
•    Assist in determining well-defined methods for collecting, compiling, and analyzing data from the physical             work site, surveys, blueprints, schematics, data, technical drawings, computer-generated reports, and other             matrices for project development, design, and construction.   
•    Perform professional mechanical engineering work and conduct research and inspections of proposed and             existing site conditions, equipment, resources, building, usage, and mechanical systems to determine                     conformance with applicable rules, standards, and construction or operating permits.
•    Assist in the development of construction and installation plans, specifications, and cost estimates; preparing         construction safety and phasing plans and updating building layout plans that require coordination with                 owners, other disciplines, sub-consultants, and clients.
•    Incorporate advanced technology, modeling techniques, concept development, design requirements, load               calculations, and operating strategies to account for the proper installation and functioning of equipment and       systems according to specifications (SpecsIntact, UFGS), implementing future-ready solutions with mechanical       engineering design standards (Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC)).
•    Verify site characteristics and provide technical assistance on various engineering, design, and construction             issues relating to automatic temperature control systems and specifications, air distribution (supply, return,             exhaust), hydronic systems (chilled water, heating water, etc.) and plumbing systems (domestic water, waste,           vent, storm, etc.).
•    Work as part of a cross-functional team of engineers, planners, and scientific professionals to execute project         work on multiple concurrent projects, assist with laying out installation of equipment, calculating costs and             quantities of material/equipment/labor, and ensuring project work conforms with specifications, permit                   applications, schematics, compliance documentation, and regulatory and technical analysis memos.
•    Prepare data and visualizations such as tables, charts, accurate reports, sketches, calculations, technical                  drawings, spreadsheets, and illustrations for the interpretation or presentation of data, findings, or analyses.
•    Maintain quality control standards and procedures for accurate and precise measurements, statistical analysis,         and reporting.
•    Assist with development and scoping of medium-sized projects.
•    Prepare technical reports and presentations that explain research, findings, and recommendations to improve,       prevent, control, restore, or address design and/or construction issues or opportunities.
•    Assist in the analysis, evaluation, and interpretation of data obtained during field investigations, offering input       with developing action plans for moderate- to high-level risk installation, equipment operations, and/or                 mitigation activities.
•    Comply with regulatory requirements pertaining to the data integrity, documentation, procedures, training,             monitoring systems, and record compliance and retention.
•    Interact with regulatory agencies, subcontractors, and clients in a confident and professional manner.
•    Remain current in latest mechanical engineering techniques and practices.
•    Work collaboratively with other engineers and planners on projects with building authorities on Federal, State,       regional, and locally funded improvement and development projects.
•    Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and                 adhere to WSP’s Code of Conduct and related policies and procedures.
•    Perform additional responsibilities as required by bu
