Mechanical Engineer Jobs in New Mexico

A Mechanical Engineer in the construction industry plays a crucial role in designing, developing, building, and testing various mechanical systems such as machinery, tools, and engines used in construction projects. They work closely with architects and civil engineers to integrate mechanical components into building designs, ensuring that all mechanical systems function efficiently and safely. They are also responsible for overseeing the installation, operation and maintenance of equipment, and troubleshooting any mechanical failures.
