Building Project Lead

Deeper Green Consulting helps builders, architects, developers, homeowners, and building owners turn building-science goals into better buildings. Through practical guidance, technical verification, and proactive project support, we deliver HERS Ratings, ENERGY STAR and DOE Efficient New Homes certifications, energy modeling, energy-code testing, field inspections, home and small-business energy assessments, electrification, ventilation, indoor-air-quality support, and other high-performance building services throughout Colorado.

As DGC enters its next stage of growth, we are strengthening our project-delivery systems and expanding our technical team.

We are looking for a capable, growth-minded Building Performance Project Lead to own assigned projects and connect building science with real-world project execution. The role combines project leadership, proactive communication with clients and project teams, field inspections, diagnostic testing, home and small-business energy assessments, documentation, certification support, and operational follow-through.

This is a hands-on project-leadership position rather than a purely administrative, full-time field-inspector, or traditional energy-auditor role. The Project Lead will guide assigned projects from design through construction, inspection, documentation, and certification while also supporting selected existing-building assessments.

• Own assigned project scope, status, milestones, deliverables, next actions, and closeout; maintain accurate, current information in DGC's project-management and technical systems; and keep inspections, energy models, documentation, and certifications organized and moving forward.
• Communicate proactively with builders, architects, trades, homeowners, business owners, clients, and internal team members so responsibilities, decisions, dependencies, and next steps remain clear.
• Schedule and conduct construction-phase field inspections, diagnostic testing, performance verification, and code/program testing.
• Conduct home and small-business energy assessments and existing-building evaluations as assigned; translate findings into clear reports, recommendations, and practical next steps.
• Plan, assign, and coordinate inspections completed by DGC employees and regional rater partners, ensuring that schedules, field information, and follow-up responsibilities remain clear.
• Prepare field and assessment reports, organize certification documentation, and track action items through resolution.
• Identify missing information, stalled decisions, and project risks early; communicate their impact and drive the appropriate next action.
• Coordinate between energy models, field conditions, program requirements, and project teams.
• Maintain accurate, current project information in DGC's project-management, energy-modeling, field-inspection, and related technical systems.
• Resolve routine project issues independently and elevate significant technical or client concerns when needed.
• Help develop and refine efficient workflows for project delivery, home and small-business energy assessments, field inspections, reporting, documentation, and partner-program requirements within DGC's technology stack.

Strong candidates may come from several backgrounds, including:

• Rating Field Inspector, HERS Rater, or BPI-certified Building Analyst
• Residential construction project coordinator, assistant project manager, or construction administrator
• Home inspector, building inspector, building-envelope inspector, or quality-control professional
• Residential or commercial energy auditor, commissioning professional, diagnostic-testing technician, HVAC professional, energy modeler, or building-performance consultant

HERS or BPI certification is preferred but not required  will provide role-specific training and establish an appropriate certification plan based on prior experience and assigned responsibilities.

• Experience in residential construction, inspections, building performance, energy efficiency, project coordination, or a related field
• Ability to read construction plans and technical documents
• Strong organization, communication, and follow-through
• Ability to manage multiple projects and competing deadlines
• Confidence communicating with builders, architects, trades, homeowners, and business owners
• Comfort working independently in remote and active construction environments
• Valid driver license, acceptable driving record, and willingness to travel regularly to Colorado mountain communities
• Ability to carry testing equipment and navigate unfinished buildings, stairs, and ladders

Experience with blower-door or duct-leakage testing, infrared thermography, combustion safety, energy assessments, Ekotrope, ENERGY STAR, DOE Efficient New Homes, RESNET, BPI, utility programs, or Colorado energy codes is especially valuable.

• Assigned projects and assessments remain current in DGC's project-management and technical systems,…
