MEP Engineer – Computational Design & Automation

About the Client

Our client is developing a next-generation design automation platform that is revolutionizing the way buildings are conceived and delivered. Their platform empowers developers, architects, and engineers to generate informed, buildable designs in minutes instead of months . With applications across data centres, residential, and industrial projects, the company is at the frontier of AI, design automation, and computational engineering .

They are seeking an experienced MEP Engineer with a passion for computational design, BIM technology, and automation to join their growing team. This role bridges traditional engineering expertise with cutting-edge digital workflows , offering the opportunity to shape the future of design technology.

Key Responsibilities

Collaborate with cross-functional teams (architects, engineers, and software developers) to deliver digital solutions that meet customer and industry requirements.

Partner with product leaders and customers to define requirements for building services design, ensuring objectives are aligned with end-user needs.

Perform complex electrical systems design , including LV / HV applications, load flow calculations, and electrical component sizing.

Define and codify rules, constraints, and heuristics for MEP layouts, space planning, and system optimization .

Develop computational design prototypes and workflows that integrate with BIM systems.

Collaborate with software engineers to design, test, and validate algorithms that automate engineering processes.

Ensure outputs are practical, code-compliant, and compatible with downstream design and delivery workflows.

Contribute to the product roadmap , bringing insights from industry experience to influence new features across MEP, structural, and architectural domains.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (or similar), with at least 5 years of experience in electrical design for building projects (data centres, residential, or industrial).
