Role Overview
As Principal Mechanical Engineer you will play a key leadership role in the enhancement of a large deep sewage pump station. You will provide mechanical engineering expertise during the Design Build and Operate (DBO) contract phase ensuring the highest standards of quality safety and resilience are embedded in the upgraded pumping station. You will ensure the delivery of a highly resilient efficient and technically advanced pumping station guiding the contractor in best practices for mechanical design equipment selection and integration.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead all mechanical engineering reviews and approvals related to pumps motors HVAC ventilation mechanical seals valves and instrumentation
- Evaluate the DBO contractors mechanical design proposals to ensure compliance with project requirements O&M feasibility and future resilience
- Supervise and monitor installation testing and commissioning of mechanical systems
- Advise on bestinclass solutions for floodproofing mechanical systems and equipment
- Coordinate with the other technical disciplines of the PMC Engineering team to ensure holistic and integrated system performance
- Lead mechanicalfocused technical reviews factory acceptance testing (FAT) and precommissioning procedures
- Assist with the development and evaluation of O&M strategies asset management systems and lifecycle optimization
Minimum Requirements
- Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering (Masters preferred)
- At least 15 years of experience in design and implementation of sewage pumping stations or related infrastructure
- Deep knowledge of mechanical systems for largecapacity sewage pumping and flood prevention measures
- Familiarity with advanced control systems redundancy planning and emergency backup systems
- Strong experience working in PMC or clientrepresentative roles
- Proficient in design and review tools (e.g. AutoCAD Revit BIM)
- Strong knowledge of relevant codes (e.g. EN BS ACI local standards)
