- Design and specify HVAC systems and equipment, including AHUs, exhaust systems, cleanroom HVAC, ventilation systems, chilled water and heating water systems, humidification/dehumidification systems, and packaged equipment.
- Perform and review HVAC calculations, including cooling/heating loads, ventilation rates, pressure cascade, air change rates, duct sizing, static pressure, and energy performance assessments.
- Coordinate closely with Process, Mechanical, Piping, Architectural, Civil/Structural, and E&I disciplines to ensure HVAC systems are properly integrated into process requirements, building layouts, utilities, controls, and constructability constraints.
- Prepare and review HVAC datasheets, specifications, layouts, schedules, material requisitions, technical bid evaluations, and vendor documents.
- Support vendor engagement and procurement activities, including technical clarifications, vendor drawing reviews, factory acceptance tests, and coordination of long‑lead HVAC equipment.
- Participate in design reviews, HAZOPs, constructability reviews, commissioning planning, and qualification readiness reviews, incorporating outcomes into finalized HVAC designs.
- Provide HVAC engineering support during construction, installation, testing, commissioning, and start‑up, including resolution of technical queries, site issues, and design changes.
- Ensure compliance with international and local codes and standards, including ASHRAE, SMACNA, NFPA, ISO, GMP, cleanroom requirements, client standards, and Korean regulatory requirements where applicable.
- Guide junior engineers and designers, provide technical direction, review deliverables, and support development of HVAC engineering capability within the project team.
- Collaborate with global AtkinsRéalis HVAC and building services subject matter experts to apply best practices, standardized methodologies, and lessons learned.
