Project Engineer

Capital Water & Wastewater Systems - Two Openings

Location: United States (Remote) | Work model: 100% remote; periodic travel to the engineering office and project sites

| Full-time

Confidential, retained search | Raymond Search Group

Own whole capital projects at a level most firms reserve for people five years further on


THE OPPORTUNITY

Two Project Engineer seats supporting our client's engineering build-out, fully remote anywhere in the United

States. These roles own technical execution of capital systems in the $1M-$10M range, partnering with Process

Engineering and Project Management.

The honest version: this is an execution seat, not a design-authority one - the Senior Engineer approves what you

deliver. The trade is whole-project ownership early, inside a flat structure with the Senior Engineer track visible

above.


WHAT YOU'LL OWN

  • Project ownership. $1M-$10M capital systems, concept through execution - owned, not assisted.
  • The engineering package. Hydraulics, pump selection, valve and instrumentation spec; P&IDs, fabrication drawings, and BOMs reviewed with Senior Engineers.
  • Procurement velocity. Data sheets, RFQs, and vendor decisions that keep projects moving.
  • Estimating input. Cost, labor, and subcontractor estimates feeding winning proposals.


MEASURES OF SUCCESS

  • On-schedule, on-specification delivery of assigned projects.
  • Quality and rework rate of deliverables.
  • Procurement turnaround and vendor decision quality.
  • Progression toward Senior Engineer readiness.


REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE

  • BS or BE, with Mechanical, Chemical, or Civil preferred, plus working CAD proficiency.
  • Experience carrying industrial systems end to end.
  • Self-direction to deliver remotely on a lean team.


PREFERRED ATTRIBUTES

  • Mid-market or boutique background where engineers own whole projects.
  • Fabrication and commissioning exposure.
  • Comfort feeding estimates and attending customer reviews.
