Joseph Capotosta, PE, PMP
Joe Capotosta is a project manager and expert in mechanical design and engineering for industrial, chemical, power, commercial and educational facilities. His passion for problem-solving shines through in the projects he delivers: “I love solving a client’s problems—whether they are engineering or design-build challenges. At the end of a project, it’s really rewarding to look back and see that you helped create something that improves the quality of life for workers and residents. I love being a part of that process.”
Joe's knowledge of piping design and equipment specification and layout has led to the delivery of numerous successful facilities, including helping a western U.S. power plant reduce plant reduce emissions and partnering with Ohio State University to design and build an alternative rubber pilot processing facility.
He has over a decade of experience at the firm and specializes in HVAC project work relating to development of system designs, layouts, and equipment specification based on ASHRAE.
“Being a privately held and employee-owned firm is a big deal to me. It allows CDM Smith to do business differently than our competitors, to always put our clients first,” Joe says.
So many other firms are commodity-based, but I believe CDM Smith stands out with our excellence and shared commitment.
