What You’ll Do:

• Manage full facility design delivery: architectural, HVAC zoning, clean utilities
• Ensure compliance with GMP-equivalent design standards
• Review and approve P&IDs, layouts, and detailed drawings
• Coordinate internal design staff, external consultants, and subcontracted engineers
• Lead BIM coordination and clash detection workflows
• Drive value engineering to improve efficiency, space, and energy performance
• Interface with permitting authorities and support regulatory design submittals
• Collaborate closely with construction and validation leads to ensure seamless execution
• Mentor junior engineers and reinforce a culture of quality and safety

What You’ll Need:

• Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or related discipline
