About Submer

Submer designs and delivers end-to-end AI datacenter infrastructure built around industry-leading liquid cooling.

We help organizations scale AI beyond the limits of traditional datacenters by enabling higher density, greater efficiency and lower environmental impact – accelerating time-to-AI from first deployment to full production.

What impact you will have

We’re looking for an MEP Mechanical CAD Designer to support the mechanical engineering team in developing detailed models, drawings and documentation for our data center MEP modules and facility-level mechanical systems for data centers. You’ll translate engineering concepts into accurate 2D/3D layouts, equipment models, pipe routing, and coordinated construction drawings. 

This role works closely with mechanical engineers, electrical and structural teams, and the systems integration group to deliver clean, coordinated mechanical packages from early design through construction.

What you’ll do

• Create and update 2D and 3D mechanical models, layouts and drawings for HVAC, chilled water systems, air distribution, piping and mechanical equipment. 

• Develop fabrication-level drawings, equipment arrangements, pipe routing, supports and schematics based on engineer direction. 

• Maintain accurate mechanical models in Revit or CAD platforms, ensuring consistency with engineering updates and project standards. 

• Coordinate mechanical layouts with electrical, plumbing, architectural and structural models to avoid clashes and ensure smooth integration. 

• Prepare drawing sets including plans, sections, elevations, isometrics, schedules and details. 

• Support the creation and maintenance of MEP module CAD standards, templates, libraries and drafting workflows. 

• Process markups from engineers and incorporate design changes throughout concept, design development and construction phases. 

• Participate in model review sessions and design coordination meetings. 

• Assist with as-built documentation and updates based on construction feedback. 

• Maintain organized file structures, version control and consistent documentation practices.

What you’ll need

• Associate degree or technical certification in CAD, drafting, mechanical design.
• 6–10 years of experience as a mechanical CAD or Revit designer that includes data center design projects.
• Proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD; experience with Navisworks or similar coordination tools is preferred.
• Understanding of mechanical building systems such as HVAC, hydronic systems, piping and mechanical utilities.
• Ability to interpret engineering sketches, markups, P&IDs and mechanical specifications.
• Familiarity with relevant codes and standards (ASHRAE, IMC, IPC is a plus).
• Strong attention to detail and ability to produce clean, accurate drawings.
• Good communication skills and comfort working with engineers and cross-discipline teams.  • Ability to work on multiple projects and manage deliverables with quick turnaround times.
• Comfortable working in a highly coordinated 3D workflow with multiple trades.
• A process-driven mindset with a focus on consistent documentation and quality.
• Willingness to learn new tools, standards and workflows as the design program evolves.
• Interest in modular design, prefabrication and emerging mechanical design technologies.

What we offer

• Attractive compensation package reflecting your expertise and experience.

• A great work environment characterized by friendliness, international diversity, flexibility, and a hybrid-friendly approach.

• You´ll be part of a fast-growing scale-up with a mission to make a positive impact, offering an exciting career evolution.

Our job titles may span more than one job level. The actual base pay is dependent on a number of factors, such as transferable skills, work experience, business needs and market demands.
