Mechanical Designer

JOB DESCRIPTION

A Mechanical Designer with 5 to 10 years of experience as a P&ID Developer is responsible for creating, updating, and maintaining Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) that illustrate the flow of fluids, control systems, and equipment in industrial processes. They work closely with engineering teams to ensure the safe and efficient operation of complex systems.

A Mechanical Designer with 5 to 10 years of experience in P&ID development is a critical asset to projects in industrial and manufacturing settings. Their ability to create and maintain accurate P&IDs ensures the safe and efficient operation of complex systems, contributing to the success of engineering projects and the safety of industry.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

P&ID Development: Create and update P&IDs using industry-standard software, such as AutoCAD, to accurately represent the layout and functionality of piping, equipment, and instrumentation in industrial processes.

Collaboration: Work closely with mechanical engineers, process engineers, and other stakeholders to understand the requirements for P&IDs and ensure that they meet design specifications.

Documentation:Generate detailed and clear P&ID documentation, including equipment symbols, instrument details, piping layouts, control loops and asset naming & numbering.

Regulatory Compliance:Ensure that P&IDs comply with safety regulations, industry standards, and project-specific requirements.

Component Selection: Collaborate with engineers to select appropriate piping materials, valves, instruments, and other components based on design and operational requirements.

Change Management: Manage changes to P&IDs by documenting and tracking revisions, and ensuring that all stakeholders are informed of updates.

Quality Control:Review and validate P&IDs for accuracy and completeness, ensuring that they are consistent with project goals and safety guidelines.

As-Built Documentation: Create as-built P&IDs to reflect the actual configuration of systems after construction or modifications. This will require field walkdowns to QC accuracy of data and CAD work.

Communication: Clearly communicate design concepts and modifications to team members and project stakeholders.

Training and Support: Provide training and support to less experienced team members and drafters in P&ID development.

QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, mechanical design, or a related field.
• 5-10 years of experience in mechanical design with a focus on P&ID development for industrial processes.
• Proficiency in P&ID software (AutoCAD).
• In-depth understanding of industrial processes, equipment, and instrumentation.
• Knowledge of safety regulations and industry standards related to P&ID development.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
• Effective communication and collaboration abilities.
• Attention to detail and a commitment to delivering accurate and high-quality P&IDs.

REQUIREMENTS

1. Applicants must have a minimum of 5 years of full-time experience with working with AutoCAD as a mechanical designer.

2. Applicant must have previous experience with P&ID development or modifications.

3. Candidate must be able to work onsite, in the field at times and in a high paced team environment.

This position may require some bending, lifting, climbing, prolonged sitting, prolonged walking, walking on gravel or crawling when necessary.
