Mechanical Engineer (MEP) - Forensic Investigator

Robson Forensic

Las Vegas, NV • Remote

Full-time

Re-posted 14 days ago


Job description

You are a P.E. with a Mechanical Engineering degree and 10+ years of industry experience in startup, commissioning, maintenance, or operation of Mechanical, HVAC, and Plumbing Systems. You have a broad understanding of mechanical building systems, industrial process systems, and fire protection.

You are already an expert. Robson Forensic will train you to be a forensic expert.

As a Mechanical Engineering (MEP) Forensic Expert, you will:

  • Investigate mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC incidents.
  • Analyze engineering procedures, applying your comprehensive knowledge of standards and practices.
  • Write clear, scientifically sound reports.
  • Provide expert testimony.

Typical cases include system benchmarking disputes, project delays, cost overruns, environmental contamination, or property damage related to the release of water or other chemicals. Personal injury casework varies, but often includes scalding injuries, carbon monoxide poisonings, or exposures to hazardous materials.

You will delve into the "why" behind incidents, critically assessing decision-making, operational procedures, and the standard of care. This role offers you a chance to:

  • Use your cumulative training, experience, and critical thinking skills.
  • Collaborate with highly respected experts.
  • Continuously learn and grow.
  • Make a tangible difference.

Locations: Columbus/Dublin, OH, Lancaster, PA, Las Vegas, NV (hybrid)

Requirements:

  • Licensure: Active Professional Engineer (P.E.) license.

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering

  • Experience: 10+ years of hands-on experience in startup, commissioning, maintenance, or operation of Mechanical, HVAC, and Plumbing Systems, including the design, review, and assessment of facilities/building systems.

  • Knowledge: Thorough working knowledge of mechanical building systems, industrial process systems, and fire protection.

  • Skills: Excellent technical, analytical, writing, and communication skills.

  • Aptitude: Strong ability to translate complex technical findings into clear, objective evidence for non-technical audiences.

  • Work Style: Roughly 20% travel for inspections; the remainder is focused on analysis and report drafting under strict deadlines, working independently and as part of a collaborative team.

  • Prior forensic experience is not required. We seek professionals eager to apply their deep industry knowledge to a challenging new domain.

You must have a clean background screen, a driver’s license, and the ability to drive.

ABOUT US:

Robson Forensic is a national leader in expert witness consulting, providing technical expertise across many fields within engineering, architecture, science, and a broad range of specialty disciplines.

Employees at Robson Forensic work alongside highly respected experts from both industry and academia. Our forensic experts are engaged in meaningful casework that is consequential to industry and society. Robson Forensic provides a unique working dynamic that blends collaboration and autonomy.

We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.

HOW TO APPLY:

If this opportunity meets your expectations for a challenging and rewarding career, and you meet our minimum requirements, please apply and attach your resume outlining your professional background and experience.
