Hi,
I am just curious if there are any Mechanical Design Engineer jobs there in the USVI? I know of Hovensa but I am not too big into the whole Oil Industry and I also know of the VLBA antenna on St Croix but that is controlled remotely so I am not sure if there are any jobs needed there.
Just curious, more than anything. I currently work for NASA-JPL and Cal Tech but have always wanted to live in the Caribbean and thought this might be a good place to start.
Thanks for any and all info!
- Jack

In your specialty it would probably only make sense if you're doing consulting work and can work from home......

If not, there sure needs to be. I just replaced a 15 Ton A/C system today that someone had fabricated a 12" x 26" supply duct for. A few months ago I found a 5 Ton A/C with a 12" flex return. Duct and pipe sizing is unknown to most A/C guys around here.
