• Develop and implement energy conservation measures (ECMs), including HVAC optimization, scheduling improvements, and control strategy updates.
• Prepare technical reports, findings, and recommendations for building owners, facility teams, and project stakeholders.
• Manage multiple RCx projects, including scope development, scheduling, vendor coordination, and progress reporting.
• Collaborate with design engineers, facility operators, and commissioning teams to ensure integrated system performance and long‑term energy savings.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Energy Engineering, or related field.
• 5–10+ years of experience in retro‑commissioning, energy auditing, HVAC optimization, or building performance engineering.
• Strong technical knowledge of HVAC systems, BAS/BMS, lighting controls, and energy management strategies.
• Proficiency with diagnostic tools, BAS data analysis, and energy calculations.
• Excellent communication skills and experience working directly with clients and facility teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Professional certifications such as PE, CEM, BCxP, or EBCP.
