Smith Engineering is a growing MEP and Energy Engineering firm serving mission-critical clients across life sciences, data centers, healthcare, higher education, and commercial real estate. We operate multiple divisions — Energy, Design, Controls, and Training — with a strong presence in the Northeast and Colorado. We are a team of engineers who care about the quality of our work and the growth of our people.
The Opportunity
We are hiring a Director of Design Engineering to provide critical leadership for our Design group. This is a pivotal role designed for a senior professional who is ready to not only execute and deliver on projects, but move into true team leadership, operational management, and ownership of project financials.
The ideal candidate is someone who can "run the shop floor"—taking an ambitious, talented team and implementing the technical leadership, processes, standards, and mentorship required to grow our business and successfully serve our increasing number of high-end clients. You will sit between executive leadership and the production teams, serving as the technical and managerial "glue" that ensures projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to the high quality our clients expect.
By the six-month mark, you will have achieved the following:
You drive predictable team performance by hitting profitability and utilization targets and ensuring all projects meet strict quality, timeline, and budget requirements.
You have clearly established yourself as the leader the team looks to and respects for technical and managerial guidance.
You have demonstrated the ability to resolve complex technical and project management issues in a timely and productive manner.
You have developed the team into a high-functioning unit and their development and growth plans are agreed and under way.
You have a deep understanding of the projects, the clients, and the individual staff members and have demonstrated you can achieve excellent project outcomes for the clients and for Smith Engineering on your own and the team’s projects.
