Description

• Supporting energy consulting work, including, but not limited to: development of energy conservation measures for retrocommissioning or deep energy retrofit projects, providing third party reviews of energy performance contract performance.
• Life cycle cost analyses to inform high performance building design strategies.
• Working with, responding to, and taking direction from senior engineers, project managers, managing principals, and operations directors.
• Presenting results to project teams and clients in formal and informal settings.
• Collaborating with architects & engineers to help projects achieve high performance outcomes
• Utilizing computer modeling software to simulate building performance (examples include energy modeling, daylight simulation, hygrothermal analysis, etc.).
• Building energy modeling, ranging from simple box to compliance models.
• Serving as an information resource for project teams during the design process.
• Coordinating with building commissioning professionals as required.
• Assisting with preparation of fee proposals for building performance consulting work as directed.
• Authoring documentation for compliance with third party sustainability rating systems, including LEED, Green Globes, Energy Star, and related measures.
• Authoring code compliance documentation for energy, carbon, and/or water performance.
• Embodied and operational carbon calculations to inform design decisions.
• Leveraging building physics expertise to advise project teams on the performance of their designs.
• Authoring reports and presentations to relay performance outcomes and alternatives, for internal and external audiences.
• Participation in project team work sessions and client charrettes to identify high performance building strategies in support of design efforts.
• Preparing graphics and authoring reports to communicate the results of analyses and studies.
• Building physics modeling (daylighting, hygrothermal analysis, thermal bridging analysis).
• Participating in team meetings and coordinating efforts with other team members
• Supporting the reporting of project performance to the firm’s AIA 2030 and MEP 2040 commitments.
