Our client delivers energy infrastructure solutions to clients across the United States. They hold master performance contracting agreements with the US Department of Energy, US Army Corps of Engineers, and State of California, among others. Their small and collaborative team has developed more than $300MM of energy upgrades since entering the industry 10 years ago.

Their team is dedicated to improving the way in which the built environment uses energy, and believes that the work will play a role in solving some of the greatest challenges facing society today. Testament to their thoroughness, creativity, and dedication to their clients, 100% of their clients have requested follow-on projects and more than half of the completed projects have won major industry awards.

We are looking for a Senior Energy Engineer to add to a small but growing team. Successful candidates will be experts in building systems and have the ability to think critically and creatively about energy conservation measures (ECMs). In this role, you will be responsible for a variety of tasks including completing whole facility energy audits, creating building energy consumption models, identifying and quantifying energy conservation measures, overseeing engineered design development and reviews, and developing & conducting Measurement and Verification for ECMs. This position requires a dynamic individual with strong technical abilities and a proven ability to balance multiple concurrent projects.
