- Lead system analyses and provide BMS optimization designs and requirements for energy studies, Enervolve Climate Action Plan (eCAP) reports, energy performance contracting projects, multidisciplinary engineering efforts, and technical sales support.
- Conduct preliminary, detailed, and investment-grade (+/-5% accuracy) analyses and simulations of existing air-side and hydronic HVAC equipment and plant systems, and their associated controls to identify potential operational and efficiency improvements.
- Propose building automation system control sequences and upgrades based on ASHRAE Guideline 36, AI Optimization strategies and industry best-practices for economically viable optimization as part of broader energy and carbon reduction measures.
- Develop and utilize tools for replicable and demonstrable analysis and reporting of findings and benefits.
- Communicate findings to internal and external stakeholders in both digital and written formats for inclusion in study write-ups and technical project development documentation.
- Undertake technical investigations and collection of pertinent information from customer sites and technical documentation to ensure the most accurate body of knowledge is created to enable investment-grade energy engineering to be delivered for each project.
- Execute and manage BMS optimization strategies and scope development for all ASHRAE Level I, II, and III energy audits/studies, utilizing Blackstone’s ratified energy engineering modeling tools and feasibility study document formats.
- Write, develop, and prepare optimization requirements, strategies, and designs for detailed and investment-grade energy audits/studies.
- Provide technical and writing support for RFIs, RFPs, and tenders as required.
- Evaluate, document, report, and present proposed project scopes, risks, and benefits to internal executive staff.
- Plan, schedule, organize, direct, and control all costs associated with engineering, consulting, and subcontracting for optimization energy engineering for assigned projects.
- Manage and document, and systematically organize project management files, including correspondence, RFIs, and timelines.
- Produce high-quality communications adhering to company standards.
- Contribute to the development of project schedules and provide progress updates on a weekly basis or as specified by your direct supervisor.
- Develop and maintain mutually beneficial relationships with customers, consultants, prime contractors, subcontractors, and trade personnel.
