Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineering is a course that involves the principles of engineering, and physics. It is the a part of the engineering career that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery.

There are many types of jobs you can do too in this field. You could be a Lead Mechanical Engineer, Mechanical Design Engineer, Project Engineer II -Mechanical, or maybe even a project engineer.


Lead Mechanical Engineer

A Lead Mechanical Engineer is responsible for supporting the design, fabrication, and installation of skid-mounted and stand-alone equipment. The projects involve pressure vessels and packaged process equipment which consists of piping, control valves, instruments and structural steel. For this job, you will need a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical or Civil Engineering. You will also need a minimum of 8 years experience of refining/petrochemical/gas industry design codes/specifications, including AISC, ASCE 7, IBC, ACI, API. You will also need experience with European and Russian design codes and standards.

For this job, you will get a salary from about $73,211 - $124,782, depending on what company you work for.

Project Engineer II-Mechanical

Project Engineer II-Mechanicals are responsible for engineering and related activities associated with TerraTherm in situ thermal desorption (ISTD) and steam injection projects. This includes equipment system design, site design, calculations, work plan writing and preparation, permitting, cost estimation, equipment procurement and fabrication, system startup, and a whole bunch more. This is primarily an office position with some necessary travel required. For this job, you must have five years direct or equivalent engineering experience in environmental remediation or construction industry. You probably should have some experience in a remediation technology engineering environment, but it's not required. You will also need some start-up company experience which is preferred but it's also not required. You will also need strong written and verbal communication skills and strong computer skills, including proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and AutoCAD.

For this job, you will get a salary from about $56,385 - $97,302, depending on what company you work for.
