Job Description

Ready for What's Next? At Kratos, we encourage an entrepreneurial spirit balanced with discipline. We work hard, and take care of our customers, employees, and families. Recognized as thought leaders in our industry, we are motivated by creating and delivering innovative solutions to our nation and global customers.

The Mechanical Engineer / Industrial Engineer 3 role utilizes expertise in Mechanical Engineering principles, REVIT/BIM model-based engineering practices, and industrial engineering methods to define, design, analyze, and integrate complex mechanical systems, ensuring they meet project objectives.

  • Conducts requirements analysis to elicit, document, and manage the functional, performance, and non-functional requirements of mechanical systems and their integration within the overall project, ensuring compatibility with BIM standards (ISO 19650, ISO16739-1, ISO 12006-2, ISO 23386, ISO 23387).
  • Develops and maintains detailed mechanical system designs and comprehensive BIM models
  • Applies mechanical system modeling to visualize, analyze, simulate (e.g., performance, clash detection), and optimize integration of mechanical designs
  • Identifies and assesses potential risks associated with mechanical system design, fabrication, installation, integration, and performance, and proposes mitigation strategies
  • Contributes to the integration aspects of mechanical systems, including defining and managing interfaces with structural, electrical, plumbing, process, and control systems, utilizing BIM models for coordination and data exchange
  • Participates in verification and validation planning, defining the strategy and scope for ensuring the integrated mechanical systems meet all specified requirements, potentially using model-based checks and supporting physical test planning.
  • Acts as a key liaison with process engineers, other discipline engineers (architectural, structural, electrical), BIM managers, software developers, vendors, and construction teams to resolve questions and ensure accurate interpretation and execution of the mechanical design and BIM models


Experience and Skills

  • Experienced in development of processes, procedures, and designs adhering to relevant industry standards (e.g., ISO 19650, relevant national BIM standards, ASME codes) and best practices within mechanical system design
  • Ability to interpret and work with mechanical system designs, BIM execution plans, 3D BIM models (e.g., AutoDesk REVIT), fabrication drawings, interface control documents, performance requirements specifications, and technical calculations.
  • Experienced in mechanical system and process design development, and BIM model creation and management (preferably with REVIT)
  • Awareness of risk management processes related to mechanical design, system integration, constructability, and operational efficiency
  • Experienced with mechanical control systems principles (e.g., HVAC and fluid controls, automation)


Preferred Skills and Experience

  • Experience with naval or industrial power plants
  • Licensed Professional Engineer or Engineering Intern/Engineer in Training (E.I or E.I.T) certificate
  • Experience with any combination of: Building Information Models (BIM), Deltek CostPoint, SolidWorks and SolidWorks PDM, Jama requirements management, TipQA
  • Proficiency in any combination of: HVAC, Fire Alarm and Suppression Systems (FASS), piping and valves, structural decking, industrial simulation
  • Advanced AutoDesk REVIT capabilities (e.g., complex family creation, parameter management, sophisticated worksharing and collaboration)
  • Knowledge and/or experience with relevant quality management systems (e.g., ISO 9001)
  • Proficiency with Navisworks for advanced clash detection, 4D/5D simulation, and model aggregation.
  • Experience with mechanical analysis and simulation software that integrates with BIM models (e.g., FEA, CFD, energy modeling software).


Position is contingent upon successful contract award.
