The Mech Tech Team

Charles "Chay" McWilliam, P.E.

- President and Chief Executive Officer
After graduating from Cal-State Fullerton in 1974 with a degree in mechanical engineering, Chay moved to the Vegas valley to work at the Nevada Test Site. While there, he also obtained an M.B.A. from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.  After a number of years in the nuclear testing/counter-terrorism arena, he joined the U.S. team negotiating nuclear treaties with the Soviet Union, and represented the Department of Energy in U.S. Government Interagency discussion where he met Katie, his wife and business partner.  When "the wall" fell, Chay & Katie started Criterium McWilliam Engineers, LLC, a building evaulation and consulting company in Las Vegas.  The company provided residential and commercial inspection services for 18 years, before they sold it to move on to bigger and better things.  One of those became Mech Tech Engineering, LLC.
