Alex Bailey, EIT

Mechanical Designer in the Rail and Transit Group supporting the design and coordination of mechanical systems for infrastructure and transit projects. Responsibilities include assisting with mechanical design development, construction document preparation, interdisciplinary coordination, and technical analysis for project delivery. Work includes applying prior experience in utility systems, piping design, hydraulics, constructability, and code compliance to support large-scale infrastructure projects.

• Lead design of firewater, potable water, fuel, sewer, and compressed air systems using CAESAR II, AFT Fathom, and AutoCAD Plant 3D • Support full-cycle delivery of 70+ marina, port, railyard, and terminal projects, developing piping layouts and integrated utility system designs from concept through construction • Perform pipe stress analysis and hydraulic modeling for systems up to 36-inch diameter, supporting system sizing, routing, and performance validation • Develop construction documents (plans, sections, and details) to support constructability and long-term reliability in marine environments • Apply NFPA, IPC, AWWA, and AREMA standards to deliver code-compliant, field-ready designs • Assess marine utility systems to identify corrosion, support deficiencies, and failure risks, informing design modifications and system upgrades • Coordinate multidisciplinary deliverables across all project phases, ensuring alignment from pre-bid through post-construction • Promoted to Mechanical Associate II based on performance and project contributions

• Contributed to the design and development of utility and piping systems, supporting engineering calculations, system layouts, and project deliverables • Assisted in the preparation of construction documents, including plans, sections, and details, to support project execution and field implementation • Supported hydraulic calculations and system sizing efforts for utility infrastructure projects • Coordinated with multidisciplinary teams to develop and refine engineering designs across multiple project phases • Reviewed project specifications and drawings to ensure alignment with design requirements and client standards

• Supported project execution for commercial construction projects, assisting with coordination between field teams, subcontractors, and project engineers • Reviewed construction drawings and specifications to ensure alignment with field conditions and project requirements • Assisted with RFIs, submittals, and project documentation to support timely project delivery • Performed site walks to monitor progress, verify installation, and identify discrepancies between design and field conditions • Contributed to project coordination efforts, supporting schedule tracking and communication across project stakeholders

• Supported residential design projects, assisting with drafting and layout development using Civil 3D • Assisted in the preparation and review of engineering drawings and site plans for residential developments • Performed basic design tasks and revisions to support project teams and evolving design requirements • Coordinated with project staff to incorporate design updates and maintain drawing accuracy • Gained foundational experience in engineering design workflows, CAD standards, and project documentation
