Engineering Structures Impact Factor Jobs in Pearland Texas

ProFound Staffing is working with a growing environmental-friendly manufacturing company located in Houston, Texas searching for a Lead Project Engineer (PE) - Mechanical & Fire Protection who can serve as the licensed technical authority on aircraft hangar projects where details matter and excuses don’t. This role requires a disciplined PE who leads 65% and 95% designs with confidence, challenges assumptions, and takes ownership of every coordinated submittal package before it reaches the client. If you prefer staying in the background or handing off unresolved redlines, this will feel uncomfortable.

Your work directly impacts hangars that protect F-35s, fifth-generation fighters, and major airline fleets that cannot afford downtime. Missed constructability risks, weak BIM coordination, or sloppy code interpretation don’t just create paperwork issues, they delay missions and erode trust.

If the work is done right, you will be instrumental in delivering a fire protection system that safeguards lives, protects aircraft, and prevents environmental damage for the next 50 to 100 years.

Does this level of ownership intimidate you, but at the same time make it irresistible? You might be humble and confident enough for this role.

Travel Requirements:

• Expect travel approximately 1–2 times per month

• Confidence presenting technical solutions in formal 65% and 95% design review meetings
• Experience reviewing and redlining complete engineering submittal packages
• Experience leveraging AI tools ( or ChatGPT) to streamline workflows, with a mindset for adopting new technologies over traditional manual processes

Responsibilities:

• Serve as the technical lead for aircraft hangar projects, ensuring all engineering aspects are executed with precision and completeness
• Lead client design review meetings, including 65% and 95% reviews and redline resolution sessions
• Review and interpret client drawings, specifications, and layouts to guide the development of the company’s general arrangement drawings and coordinated submittal packages
• Lead two highly capable junior engineers who prepare design packages and submittals; thoroughly review, refine, and approve their work before client submission

• Ensure the company’s CAD and Revit models integrate cleanly into client BIM environments
• Identify constructability risks early and translate field lessons into improved design standards
• Support the Project Manager and Installation Manager as the primary technical authority on multiple concurrent projects

• Proficiency with scheduling tools (e.g., MS Project, Primavera P6, Smartsheet, or equivalent).
