Building Automation Solution Engineer

Position Location

This role supports our Beltsville, MD branch location, which serves customers throughout the greater Washington, D.C. area.

The Solution Engineer serves as a technical leader during pre‑construction and early project phases, translating owner and project requirements into coordinated, constructible BAS design‑assist solutions. This role partners closely with Engineers of Record, contractors, and internal delivery teams to identify risks early, resolve integration and constructability challenges, and deliver complete, compliant, commissioning‑ready engineering packages. The Solution Engineer ensures alignment between contract scope, design intent, and execution strategy while supporting complex projects across a wide range of vertical markets.

Hybrid role: remote work with occasional on‑site visits.

• Translate project goals into complete BAS design‑assist deliverables for a wide range of facilities, including higher education and K‑12, data centers, hospitals, pharmaceutical facilities, high‑rise buildings, and laboratories.
• Lead constructability and integration readiness reviews to surface scope gaps, design conflicts, and interoperability risks early, and drive resolution with the EOR/GC/MEP teams.
• Coordinate and drive development of design deliverables with area offices and stakeholders, ensuring documentation meets contract requirements, customer expectations, and Siemens standards, including third‑party system integration requirements, mechanical/electrical layouts, network diagrams and architecture, bills of materials, sequences of operations, valve and damper schedules, DDC panel configuration and point mapping.
• Participate in internal and external meetings to support opportunities, provide technical direction, and contribute to pre‑construction, project planning activities and engineering bid deliverables.
• Lead design‑assist execution through release, ensuring engineering packages are complete, compliant, and commissioning‑ready; deliver a documented handoff to delivery teams, including scope assumptions, risk items, alternates, and commissioning readiness guidance.
• Collaborate directly with contractors and the EOR to protect design intent and drive cost‑effective technical decisions, including site visits and in‑person working sessions as needed.
• Analyze construction plans, contract specs, and applicable codes to identify requirements, conflicts, and potential risks early.
• Create engineering re‑estimates and partner with sales and operations leadership to align scope, assumptions, and execution strategy.
• Perform peer reviews and quality assurance checks to ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency across engineering outputs.
• Support large, complex, and innovative projects—leveraging internal and external resources to deliver results on time and with high customer satisfaction.
