Find Engineers

Find mechanical, electrical, civil and industrial engineers by discipline, standards and location with unigrig.

About the profession

Engineering covers distinct disciplines — mechanical, electrical, civil, structural, industrial, process — and they are not interchangeable. Each has its own standards, software and certification path, and most work is bounded by a code or regulation.

Two questions decide most engineering hires: which discipline and which standard the work must comply with. Location follows from that, because certification and site access are frequently local requirements.

Skills to look for

  • CAD (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Inventor, Revit)
  • Simulation and analysis (FEA, CFD)
  • Design to standards and codes
  • Technical documentation and specifications
  • Manufacturing and tolerancing knowledge
  • Project and contractor coordination
  • Testing, commissioning and QA
  • Health, safety and regulatory compliance

Common specialties

Mechanical design
Product and machine design through to manufacturable drawings.
Electrical and controls
Power, instrumentation and automation systems.
Civil and structural
Structures, infrastructure and load-bearing design under code.
Industrial and process
Production lines, throughput and process efficiency.
HVAC and building services
Mechanical systems designed alongside architecture.

Experience and seniority

Junior engineers produce drawings and calculations under review. Mid-level engineers own a subsystem and its documentation. Senior and chartered engineers take design responsibility, sign off work and manage external parties.

Remote, hybrid or on-site

Design and analysis can be remote. Commissioning, site supervision and manufacturing support require presence, so hybrid arrangements are the norm in this category.

How unigrig matching works for this role

Specify the discipline, the applicable standards and whether site presence is required. unigrig matches on skills, certification-relevant experience, location and work mode from each professional's profile.
