HVAC / Mechanical Engineer — New York City | $95K–$120K

The opportunity

An established company supporting construction projects is expanding its mechanical team in NYC. The portfolio is broad — hospitals and labs, K-12 and university campuses, plus commercial interiors from restaurants and retail to hospitality and workplace — so no two projects look alike. Hybrid setup, limited travel.
