Energy Engineer - state; TBD

Job Description

This is an exciting and challenging position, where the engineer will be asked to:

• Identify, develop and provide operations and maintenance best practices and protocols for MEP systems.
• Provide support for the procurement of energy-efficient systems and equipment.
• Provide on-site primary systems management for central heating and chilling plants and related distribution systems, including ongoing analysis of each of the facility’s major energy-consuming systems. Identify areas for energy and energy-cost reductions by optimizing performance. Facilities may require a full-time specialist to manage and support central power plant and building mechanical/electrical systems operation.
• Provide oversight of preventive maintenance service contracts.
• Provide design reviews of major capital construction projects at preliminary, 30%, 60%, 90% and final documents. This would include ensuring architects/engineers are designing MEP equipment that aligns with established client standards.
• Evaluate and present various energy-saving technologies to determine if they have a viable return on investment and help reduce energy costs or enhance operations.
• Provide technical support and recommendations for implementation of quick payback energy efficiency projects (at a lower dollar amount, normally below $20K investment) in areas of energy efficient lighting, steam trap replacements, etc.
• Assist client in planning and implementation of updated Building Management System projects.
• Develop and implement space consolidation plans, including efforts around building decommissioning to reduce energy costs/consumption.
• Provide technical assistance, and/or any training to client staff in operation and maintenance of mechanical and controls equipment such as boilers, chillers and BMS.
