Daniel Ubernosky

Age: 27

Company: GK Engineers

Title: Graduate Engineer

How long have you been in the PHCP-PVF industry?

DU: I have been in the industry for three years.

What drew you into the industry?

DU: I always knew I wanted to be an engineer of some sort. Initially aiming to do Electrical MEP design, I ended up getting a job as a plumbing designer for GK Engineers. Since then I discovered an affinity for plumbing and haven’t looked back.

What is the most rewarding aspect of working in the industry?

DU: It's incredibly fulfilling to collaborate with an exceptional team on a project and look at the finished building, knowing I played a crucial role in its completion.

What motivates you every day?

DU: With the constantly changing industry and varying complexity of designs, there is always something new to learn. I feel like if you ever stop learning in this industry, you are missing out.

What is one thing you wish more people knew/understood about the PHCP-PVF industry?

DU: I feel like the PHCP-PVF industry is often overlooked. The field itself is more complex than most people assume, with many different areas of interest. As a result, there are plenty of job opportunities at every level within the field.

What has been your proudest moment in your career so far?

DU: I am proud of the progress I have made as a designer. It feels great having project managers consistently trust me with bigger and more complex projects as I move forward. There’s nothing like completing an intricate project and being told how impressed the client was with my drawings.

What is one thing most people don’t know about you?

DU: I can play the banjo.


Why he was chosen as a Next Gen All-Star Top 20 Under 40 winner:

“Daniel has not only has advanced in his plumbing knowledge, but is a regular participant at ASPE  meetings and he’s always eager to learn by leading his team in scheduling lunch and learns and continuing education. I have had the pleasure of working with him on several projects and he has continued to show leadership and passion for the plumbing industry. His degree is in electrical, but has taken hold of everything that plumbing design has to offer. I am impressed with his growth and his commitment to the plumbing industry.   I would like to nominate Daniel as the Next Gen in engineering as someone to look up to and aspire to be like.” — Zed Hernandez
