Process Mechanical Designer

TAI, Owings Mills, MD, United States


About The Role Step into a dynamic role where you transform complex engineering concepts into precise 3D models and construction ready designs. As a key member of our On‑Site Services Group, you will bridge the gap between vision and reality, conducting hands‑on field surveys to capture existing conditions and translating them into detailed piping systems, equipment layouts, and process skids. You’ll collaborate closely with multi‑disciplinary teams to navigate projects across the industrial, manufacturing, and food & beverage sectors; ensuring every isometric drawing and P&ID meets the highest standards of accuracy. This is a role for a proactive problem‑solver who enjoys the technical challenge of coordinating intricate mechanical designs while seeing their work move from the CAD screen to the plant floor.
