Job description

Under Task Order 5 of the Engineering and Technical Support Services contract (ETSS), a successful candidate in the mechanical engineering discipline will perform requirements planning, large scale third-party design oversight, internal project design, construction oversight and operational start-up activities. Responsibilities include identifying and ensuring relevant construction codes and standards are included in accordance with NASA policy and procedures and to determine code sections relevant to the particular facility work and advise FEMO engineers, architects, and operations specialists on the appropriate application of those code sections to the facility work. Responsibilities also include reviewing third party designs and providing input to minimize construction project disruption and avoid property loss and waste. In addition, the engineers will identify and apply code content/requirements when performing quality assurance (e.g., document reviews, work product inspections, witnessing system tests, observing construction work, observing maintenance work, etc.). Prefer a strong background in HVAC over a range of facilities from commercial office space, to data centers, to aerospace production facilities. This is a full-time onsite position at NASA Armstrong located in Edwards, CA.

Requirements:

• Must have a Professional Engineer (P.E.); OR must have passed the F.E. (fundamentals of engineering) exam.
• Must have a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering.
• Minimum 8 years professional facilities design and construction engineering and management.
• Experience with design-bid-build and design-build project delivery mechanisms.
  Experience translating customer requirements to design options with accurate cost justification.
• Must demonstrate experience in building plumbing, HVAC, and fire protection systems.
• Experience reading and understanding engineering drawings, blueprints, schematics, and specifications.
• Ability to review and revise existing standards of engineering techniques, procedures, and practices in building design and building information modeling.
• Ability to coordinate work efforts across other engineering, architecture, and construction disciplines to arrive at best technical and value-based solutions.
• Must be able to work a 9/80 schedule to support NASA FEMO.
  

Must be a US Citizen or Permanent Resident
