Designs and engineers mechanical, electrical, and public health systems for UK construction projects across RIBA Stages 2–4. Performs first-principles calculations, system sizing, equipment selection, technical specifications, design basis reports, tender documentation, and performance verification. Ensures compliance with UK Building Regulations, CIBSE guidance, and British Standards. Reviews junior team outputs and supports energy efficiency, sustainability, Net Zero, and Passivhaus objectives while communicating technical rationale to UK consultants and clients.
Role Overview
We are seeking a technically rigorous and analytical MEP Design Engineer to spearhead engineering analysis, sizing, and system design for complex UK construction projects. Moving beyond basic drafting to focus heavily on first-principles engineering, performance calculations, and detailed technical documentation. You will ensure all Mechanical, Electrical, and Public Health (MEP/PH) systems are engineered in strict compliance with UK Building Regulations, British Standards (BS/BS EN), and CIBSE codes, covering RIBA Stages 2 through 4.
Key Responsibilities & Technical Scope
UK Regulatory & Code Compliance: Engineer and size MEP systems in strict alignment with UK Building Regulations (Approved Documents), CIBSE Guides (A, B, C, etc.), and BS EN / British Standards.
Engineering Calculations & Sizing: Perform comprehensive, first-principles engineering calculations using industry tools (e.g., h2x, MagicCAD, IES VE, Amtech/ProDesign), including:
HVAC: Heating and cooling load calculations, psychrometric analysis, ventilation rates, duct pressure drops, and pipe sizing.
Electrical: Maximum demand calculations, cable sizing, earth fault loop impedance, and lighting design complying with CIBSE codes (LG6/LG7).
Public Health: Domestic hot and cold water pipe sizing (in line with HSG274 / Water Supply Regulations), foul and surface water drainage calculations (BS EN 12056).
RIBA Stage-Specific Design Delivery: Own technical deliverables across key design milestones:
RIBA Stage 2 (Concept Design): Defining preliminary loads, plant room space requirements, and energy strategies.
RIBA Stage 3 (Spatial Coordination / Developed Design): Finalizing system schematics, equipment selection, performance specifications, and drawing up design intent packages.
RIBA Stage 4 (Technical Design): Producing detailed engineering specifications, schedules of work, and performance verification reports.
Design Governance & Specification Writing: Author comprehensive technical specifications, design basis reports (DBR), and tender documentation tailored to UK market standards.
Review & Quality Assurance: Review modeling and drafting outputs produced by junior team members to ensure the underlying engineering calculations, sizing, and design intent are accurately represented.
Requirements
Position: MEP Design Engineer (UK projects)
Education: B.E/M.E Mechanical
Shift Time: General
Location: Narhe - Pune (3 months from office) Then WFH
Experience: Extensive hands-on experience in MEP engineering design and calculations for the UK building services market.
*Deep Standards Expertise: Mastery of CIBSE codes, BS/BS EN standards, and UK Building Regulations.
Calculation Software Proficiency: Proven expertise using specialist design and analysis tools (such as h2x, MagicCAD, IES VE, Amtech/ProDesign). Familiarity with Revit is a plus for design review, but the core focus is engineering output.
Communication & Technical Writing: Exceptional written and spoken English, with a demonstrated ability to draft clear technical reports, specifications, and communicate design rationale effectively with UK-based lead consultants and clients.
Analytical Mindset: Strong problem-solving skills focused on energy efficiency, sustainability (Net Zero/Passivhaus principles), and resolving complex technical challenges during early design phases.
