Ghassan Ahmad is a Professional Engineer serving as Director of Mechanical Design at Design Works Engineering Ltd., where mechanical engineering expertise has been applied to HVAC and plumbing system design for residential, multi-residential, institutional, light industrial, and commercial projects since joining the firm in 2021. The role centers on developing accurate mechanical designs while supporting project delivery from start to finish, with close coordination among clients and consultants ensuring that requirements are clearly understood and met at every stage.

At Design Works, the daily work draws on a commitment to thorough design practices, dependable service, and clear communication, qualities that have carried through consistently across all project types. Prior to this role, project coordination experience was gained at AECON Group Inc. from 2020 to 2021, rounding out a well-grounded background in project delivery ahead of the move into mechanical design leadership. The technical foundation came from a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alberta, completed in 2020, and professional standing has since been recognized through membership with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA). The transition from engineering studies into professional practice was a natural one, and a steady progression toward directing mechanical design work has followed in the years since.
