Description
​​Looking for Filipino (Philippines-based) candidates Job Role: Senior HVAC Mechanical Engineer / Estimator   Work Schedule: This is a full-time role Australia Timezone  Salary range: AUD 2000-3000 / Monthly Who We Are: At Hunt St we help Australian companies directly hire top 5% remote talent in the Philippines. You will be hired directly by the client, typically as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home. Who The Client Is: Our client is a reputable Queensland-based company specialising in the design, installation, and maintenance of commercial HVAC-R (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration) systems.  Role Overview: We are seeking an exceptional Senior Mechanical Engineer / Estimator to become a key technical member of our estimating and engineering team. You will be joining an established team of experienced estimators and engineers. This is not a role where you'll be building processes from scratch or working independently. Instead, you'll collaborate with a high-performing team, contribute as a senior technical resource, and be supported by colleagues in a growing business. This is a senior-level position that combines mechanical engineering, commercial estimating, design review, and technical coordination. We are looking for someone who is technically strong, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about delivering high-quality work. The ideal candidate is seeking a long-term opportunity where they can make a meaningful contribution and continue to grow professionally. We're particularly interested in someone who enjoysfinding technical and commercial opportunities that others overlook. The right person is energized by reviewing consulting engineers' tender documentation, identifying gaps, ambiguities, and risks, and using those insights to develop competitive and commercially sound estimates. You will work closely with Australian-based estimating and project teams and become one of the organization's key technical resources. This is a client-facing and supplier-facing role. You will communicate directly with Australian builders, clients, consultants, suppliers, and subcontractors via email and other written correspondence, representing the business professionally and independently. WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT We are not seeking a CAD operator or a junior engineer. This is a senior seat. We are looking for someone capable of thinking independently, identifying risks, challenging documentation, and supporting projects from tender through to construction — someone who can hold their own in a room full of experienced people and make the team around them better.  THE TEAM YOU ARE JOINING   You will not be working alone. The client already has an established estimating and engineering team, and this role is a deliberate addition to it as the business grows. You will be surrounded by experienced estimators, engineers and project people, both in Australia and offshore, who you can learn from and contribute to. Your work will be seen, valued and built upon. For the right person this is a place to grow into one of our most senior and trusted technical people over time. The successful candidate will ideally possess: Mechanical Engineering Degree 5–7+ years relevant experience Strong Australian commercial HVAC experience Excellent written and spoken English Working electrical services knowledge CAMEL experience (high bonus) Accurate heat loads and equipment selections Strong controls, BMS and control logic depth High attention to detail Strong commercial awareness Excellent engineering judgement Ability to work independently Strong communication skills Confidence dealing directly with Australians Genuinely engaged — takes pride in the work Excited by finding gaps in tender documents Loves value engineering and chasing cost sa
