Our project types are broad, including offices, multi-family residential (mid & high-rise), assembly, natatoriums, and art galleries. Project sizes typically range from 100k to 2 million square feet but also include smaller buildings (5-50k sf), especially if they are highly energy efficient.

Other general responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• As the first step in energy modeling, examine both field conditions and design documents, representing relevant details appropriately in the energy model;
• Perform advanced energy modeling analysis for high rise commercial and residential buildings primarily using the DOE 2.2 or Energy Plus in accordance with ASHRAE Standards;
• Model building HVAC systems including chilled water, hot water, DX, rooftop units,as well as constant air and variable air volume systems;
• Assemble documentation on modeling methods, assumptions and results;
• Execute energy auditing, benchmarking, data gathering, as well as measurement & verification;
• Perform energy savings and lifecycle cost analyses of energy saving measures related to building envelope, lighting, HVAC, plug loads, and building energy management systems;
• Perform excel based calculations utilizing engineering principles;
• Develop and write reports that detail building components as well as describe energy efficiency measures to improve design and control for new and existing facilities;
• Perform quality checks and quality assurance for tasks performed by team members; and
• Provide feedback to project teams on cost effective ways of improving building energy performance and sustainability.
• Perform all other duties as assigned by your supervisor or manager.

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechanical, Aerospace or Civil Engineering, Physics or Architecture;
• Professional Engineer (PE) or Registered Architect (RA) accreditation is highly desirable either upon joining or planned in the near future.
• Minimum of three years experience, in a consulting environment, in energy analysis for US based projects. (University course experience does not meet the requirement)
• Thorough knowledge and experience with the New York State and NY City Energy Code
• Thorough knowledge and experience with the Passive House International (PHI) and/or Passive House Institute US (PHIUS) certification systems and relevant tools (PHPP, WUFI Passive, etc) is desirable.
• Superior verbal communication and writing skills
• Proven ability to engage well with external stakeholders (e.g. clients and design partners)
• Thorough knowledge of energy efficiency in large and complex buildings
• Thorough knowledge of energy modeling software, DOE 2.2 or Energy Plus. Primary knowledge of IES may be acceptable, if complemented by knowledge of DOE 2.2. Note: Experience only with Train/Trace, Carrier/HAP, and/or eQuest is insufficient.
• The Energy Modeling group performs significant architectural energy modeling using THERM, WUFI and CFD software. Knowledge of architectural detailing and of the software platforms are a plus but not required. We will provide training otherwise.
