Mechanical Engineer- “High-Rise & Complex Buildings”

Mechanical Engineer

High-rise & Complex Buildings | Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

What if the systems you design were the reason a building breathed, cooled and protected itself perfectly?

As Mechanical Engineer within our High-Rise & Complex Buildings team in Malaysia, you will take ownership of mechanical systems design across a varied portfolio of building projects, from air conditioning and ventilation to fire protection, plumbing and specialist systems. You will manage the full design cycle from concept through to site, working closely with engineers across disciplines to deliver coordinated, high-quality outcomes.

High-rise buildings, done well, are one of the most powerful tools we have for building sustainable, liveable cities. With more than 300 tall building projects globally, our High-rise & Complex Buildings team integrates structural, MEP, facade, digital and sustainability expertise from concept to completion, because the relationship between a building’s structure and its services is where real value is won or lost. Data-driven, computationally advanced, and benchmarked against decades of global experience, we design with purpose for the people and cities that need these buildings to perform for generations. If you want work that genuinely challenges you, this is where you come.

The role

As Mechanical Engineer, you will be responsible for the full mechanical design lifecycle across a varied portfolio of building projects in Malaysia. From early-stage concept through to site completion, you will design and specify complex mechanical systems, manage the tender and contract administration process, and collaborate with engineers across other disciplines to deliver integrated, high-performance buildings.

This is a role for someone who takes ownership of their work from drawing board to commissioning, and who wants to see the direct impact of their engineering in the built environment.
