JOB OVERVIEW

Canadian real estate development company | Residential building systems | $2,500-3,000 CAD/month for consistent performers



WHY JOIN US

Fully remote, permanently. No hybrid, no return-to-office. Work from anywhere.

Predictable hours. 8am-4pm AST means 8am-4pm. No late-night emails, no weekend emergencies.

Clear output = clear reward. No politics, no annual review games. Finish projects well, earn more.

Flat organization. 15-person team of professionals like you. Direct access to leadership. Your ideas get heard.

Continuous training. Collaborative mentality, knowledge sharing, grow your skills without bureaucracy.



WHO SHOULD APPLY

If you currently work at (or recently left) Arup, AECOM, Jacobs, WSP, Meinhardt, Aurecon, Stantec, Beca, or Forsspac - this role is for you.

Must have: Direct experience on US or Canadian residential/commercial building projects. You understand ASHRAE, NFPA, and North American MEP documentation standards.

Best fit: Multi-family residential, mixed-use buildings, mid-rise construction. You've designed HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems for buildings - not industrial plants or data centers.

Not a fit: Process/industrial MEP engineers, or pure CAD drafters. We need someone who sizes equipment, runs load calculations, and produces permit-ready MEP documentation.



YOUR WORK

Design mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems for residential buildings
HVAC load calculations and equipment sizing
Electrical panel schedules, lighting layouts, and power distribution
Plumbing riser diagrams and fixture layouts
Produce permit-ready MEP drawings in Revit
Coordinate with architectural and structural disciplines
4-10 projects/month at steady state



REQUIREMENTS

2+ years at a global consultancy working on US or Canadian building projects
Licensed engineer (Mechanical, Electrical, or equivalent)
MEP design experience - you've sized systems and run calculations, not just drafted
Revit MEP proficiency for design and documentation
Familiarity with ASHRAE, NFPA, NEC, or equivalent international standards



COMPENSATION AND CONDITIONS

Top performers: $2,500-3,000 CAD/month
Structure: $1,600 base + $ ---------- per project
Schedule: Full-time, AST 8am-4pm (8pm-4am Manila)
Time off: Weekends off, one paid vacation day per month
Probation: 1 month



HOW TO APPLY

Respond with answers to all five questions. Qualified candidates get one 30-minute interview and immediate onboarding.

1. Employer and Role
Current/recent firm, your job title (mechanical, electrical, or plumbing focus), and years there.

2. US/Canada Project Experience
Two residential or commercial building projects you designed MEP systems for US or Canadian clients. Include: location, building type, which systems you designed (HVAC, electrical, plumbing), your deliverables.

3. Technical Question
A 6-unit residential building in a cold climate needs heating. Walk me through how you'd approach the HVAC system selection and sizing. (3-4 sentences)

4. Schedule
Type "YES I CAN COMMIT" for AST 8am-4pm full-time.

5. Portfolio and Start Date
Links to resume and 2-3 MEP drawing sets or calculation sheets you produced. How soon can you start?
