Design Engineering Interns: This is where you come in

Our Design Engineering Department takes concepts and ideas from our project teams and turns them into real, buildable mechanical systems. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at Commercial HVAC and Plumbing design, learning how we turn engineering intent into drawings, selections, calculations, and coordinated systems that actually work in the field.

Top 3 things to deliver in your first year to be a hero:

• Learn as much as you can about HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical contracting.
• Help your team. Work on engineering drawings, run calculations, review submittals, draft load calculations, and help come up with possible design solutions.
• Have a great time and explore if a future with MMFS is right for you, or if design engineering is your path.

Interns report to our Senior Mechanical Engineers on a collaborative team working on a variety of design projects and initiatives that support our growing business.
