Energy Engineer

We are seeking a Senior Senior Energy Engineer

The Senior Energy Engineer will lead technical delivery for NYC Local Law 87 audits, ASHRAE Level II energy audits, energy conservation measure analysis, retro-commissioning, whole-building energy modeling, Local Law 97 emissions analysis, LEED energy documentation, and life cycle assessment. This role will serve as a technical lead for client projects, manage technical deliverables, review work prepared by junior staff, and coordinate with multidisciplinary project teams.

• Lead whole-building energy modeling using Design Builder and Energy Plus.
• Develop ASHRAE 90.1 Appendix G baseline and proposed design energy models.
• Perform parametric modeling, sensitivity analysis, HVAC system comparisons, envelope analysis, electrification studies, and peak‑demand assessments.
• Review model assumptions, schedules, internal loads, HVAC inputs, calibration methods, and simulation outputs.
• Develop technical recommendations for energy efficiency, electrification, carbon reduction, and building‑system optimization.

• Lead ASHRAE Level II energy audits, including site visits, field verification, equipment inventories, utility‑data analysis, building‑operations interviews, and system assessments.
• Develop and evaluate Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs), Resource Conservation Measures (RCMs), and Operations and Maintenance Measures (OM&Ms).
• Perform and review energy‑savings calculations, interactive‑effects analysis, utility‑cost savings, and system‑level impacts.
• Prepare RSMeans‑based implementation‑cost estimates, maintenance‑cost estimates, lifecycle‑cost analysis, simple payback, Savings‑to‑Investment Ratio (SIR), and Net Present Value (NPV) calculations.
• Prepare and review Local Law 87 audit reports, compliance forms, technical narratives, findings tables, and supporting documentation.
• Lead retro‑commissioning investigations, functional testing, deficiency tracking, corrective‑action recommendations, and final RCx documentation.

• Lead Local Law 97 emissions modeling, carbon‑compliance forecasting, and decarbonization pathway analysis.
• Review building envelope, HVAC, lighting, and controls systems for NYCECC and NYStretch compliance.
• Provide technical leadership for LEED Energy and Atmosphere documentation, including EAp2, EAc1, EAc2, EAc5, and EAc
  6.
• Coordinate with architects, MEP engineers, contractors, and owners to identify energy‑efficiency and carbon‑reduction opportunities.

• Lead whole‑building life cycle assessment modeling using One Click LCA.
• Coordinate with architecture, structural, and BIM teams to obtain material quantities, product data, and Environmental Product Declarations.
• Support LEED MRc1 documentation and embodied‑carbon reduction strategies.
• Review LCA results and provide recommendations for material optimization and carbon reduction.

• Review drawings, specifications, equipment schedules, submittals, and technical reports for energy‑related impacts.
• Conduct site visits to verify installed conditions, equipment performance, control sequences, and operational issues.
• Support measurement and verification planning, BAS trend review, and building‑performance analysis.
• Serve as a technical resource during design coordination meetings and client meetings.
• Review calculations, reports, and documentation prepared by junior engineers and consultants.
• Maintain technical QA/QC standards, project documentation procedures, and deliverable schedules.
• Mentor junior staff and provide technical guidance on energy modeling, audit procedures, calculations, and reporting.

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Energy Engineering, Building Science, Architectural Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum of 7 years of relevant professional experience in energy engineering, building performance, energy audits, commissioning, retro‑commissioning, or sustainability consulting.
• Extensive experience with NYC…
