Key Responsibilities
Develop and review HVAC design deliverables (calculations, specifications, layouts, equipment data sheets, and material requisitions) in line with project requirements.
Adapt international design standards to Republic of Kazakhstan (RoK) norms and codes (SP, SNiP, ST RK, SanPiN, Fire Safety regulations, etc.).
Perform HVAC load calculations, duct/pipe sizing, and system selection for industrial facilities (process buildings, substations, control rooms, auxiliary facilities).
Review and adjust HVAC system calculations (thermal loads, airflow, duct sizing, ventilation balance, etc.) according to RoK methodologies.
Modify layouts, equipment specifications, and material selections to align with RoK construction standards and market availability.
Prepare adaptation drawings, explanatory notes, and technical reports for HVAC systems.
Adapt international Contractor’s HVAC design documentation to Republic of Kazakhstan (RoK) codes, norms, and standards (SN RK, SP, ST RK, SanPiN, Fire Safety regulations).
Ensure compliance with local climate, seismic, and sanitary requirements in HVAC design for industrial facilities.
Translate and prepare design deliverables in a format suitable for submission to Client.
Interface with the Contractor and Vendor to ensure proper localization of design deliverables.
Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams (Architecture, Electrical, Piping, Fire Protection) to ensure integrated design solutions.
Coordinate with the Contractor/Vendor to resolve discrepancies between international standards and RoK requirements.
Support design review meetings, HAZOPs, and constructability reviews.
Procurement & Vendor Support
Prepare technical specifications for HVAC equipment (AHUs, chillers, ventilation fans, filters, dampers, ducting, etc.).
Participate in technical bid evaluations, vendor document reviews, and factory acceptance tests (FAT).
Provide technical assistance during construction, installation, and commissioning of HVAC systems.
Review and approve contractors’ shop drawings and method statements.
Support site inspections to ensure compliance with design and RoK requirements.

Qualifications
Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Heat & Ventilation, or related field.
Min 5–10 years’ experience in HVAC design and engineering, preferably within EPC projects for oil, gas, petrochemical, or large industrial facilities.
Previous experience working with RoK codes and standards or adaptation of international design to RoK norms is highly desirable.

Skills:
Proficiency in AutoCAD and HVAC calculation tools.
Knowledge of RoK regulatory framework (SN RK, SP, ST RK, SanPiN, Fire Safety norms).
Strong technical writing skills (explanatory notes, design justifications).
Fluent in English (working language of the project).
