RELO to Traverse City, MI

Design Exceptional Mechanical Systems. Price Them Right. Help Build Some of Northern Michigan's Finest Custom Homes.

If you're a Mechanical Engineer who enjoys designing HVAC and plumbing systems—not just sitting behind a desk crunching numbers—this opportunity offers the chance to influence projects from concept through construction.

We're partnering with a respected mechanical contractor that has built a reputation for craftsmanship, innovation, and long-term relationships with premier custom home builders throughout Northwest Michigan. As the Mechanical Engineer / Estimator, you'll play a critical role designing mechanical systems, developing accurate estimates, and helping bring luxury residential projects to life.

• $80,000-$150,000 annually (base salary plus commission)
• Company truck and fuel card
• Company phone
• Medical, dental, vision, life, and AD&D insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid vacation, holidays, and wellness time
• HSA/FSA options
• Tuition reimbursement
• Employee referral program
• Employee discounts
• Stable, growing company with long-term career advancement

 What You'll Do

• Design HVAC and plumbing systems for custom residential construction projects
• Develop accurate estimates by reviewing architectural plans, specifications, and project requirements
• Design efficient ductwork layouts that meet code requirements and maximize system performance
• Collaborate with architects, builders, project managers, and internal teams throughout the estimating process
• Identify value engineering opportunities while maintaining quality and performance standards
• Build lasting relationships with custom home builders, architects, and developers
• Ensure seamless project transitions from estimating through construction
• Support continued growth by delivering exceptional customer service and technical expertise

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

• Experience designing residential HVAC systems
• Strong understanding of residential construction practices
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints and construction specifications
• Experience creating ductwork layouts

Preferred Qualifications

• Mechanical Engineering background or degree
• Experience estimating HVAC, plumbing, or mechanical systems
• Experience with custom luxury residential construction
• Residential plumbing design experience
• Hydronic system design experience
• Experience using estimating software and advanced spreadsheets

 Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This company has earned the trust of many of Northern Michigan's top custom home builders by delivering exceptional craftsmanship and doing business the right way. Rather than chasing volume, they focus on quality projects, strong relationships, and long-term success.

You'll work alongside experienced professionals who value collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement while helping design mechanical systems for some of the area's most impressive custom homes.

If you enjoy solving engineering challenges, working directly with builders and architects, and seeing your designs become reality, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

Bring your engineering expertise where quality matters, relationships come first, and your work will leave a lasting impact on every project you help create.
