ABM is seeking qualified individuals to develop guaranteed energy efficiency projects, renewable energy projects, and other energy savings-related capital improvement projects. This involves identifying, assessing, and structuring technical and financial solutions to meet customer objectives.
Requirements
- Working knowledge of building systems, i.e., chillers, boilers, HVAC, and controls.
- Experience as a developer on energy performance contract (EPC) projects.
- Ability to conduct/assist with ASHRAE Level 1, 2, 3 energy audits.
- Conduct field visits to assist with site walkthrough energy assessments and collect detailed information.
- Experience in energy analysis to identify, screen, and develop energy conservation measures for EPC and design-build projects; develop EMS control strategies to reduce energy consumption; and interface with customer facility personnel.
- Measurement and verification skills, including installation of instrumentation for short-term data logging of power and environmental parameters.
- Design experience is a strong plus.
Responsibilities
- Assist the sales staff to screen and qualify the feasibility of energy efficiency and capital improvement opportunities. This involves attending customer meetings, conducting site trips to collect facility and site data, and developing and running energy screening models to determine the technical and economic viability of projects.
- Develop, define, and dimension technically and economically feasible applications by performing preliminary engineering/design, project metering, and measurements of critical parameters.
- Coordinate with external vendors, manufacturers, and contractors to develop designs and technical proposals for solutions and services.
- Develop technical scope of work for selected technologies and manage internal and external engineering resources to determine cost and schedule.
- Drive the technical due diligence from initial screen until turnover to the project management group for the implementation phase. This involves identifying known risks (e.g., technical, construction, price, schedule, environmental, warranties, performance guarantees), indicating impact, and how they will be addressed and mitigated.
- Perform technical consulting assignments as required to support specific client requests.
- Aid project management and construction teams to support the implementation of projects, as required.
Other
- Undergraduate mechanical or electrical engineering (BE, BS) or construction-related degree required.
- Advanced degree in engineering or construction management and/or PE preferred.
- 5 to 10 years of experience in a facility environment or energy management sector.
- Possess highly developed interpersonal, analytical, and communication skills (oral & written).
- Strong organizational and computer skills are necessary, particularly the Microsoft Office Suite.
