Energy Modeling Project Manager

As part of our growth, we are currently looking for a motivated Energy Project Manager with 3-5 years of experience to join our Energy Modeling group within our Energy & Sustainability Services Division. The Energy PM will be involved in high-profile sustainability projects – locally, nationally, and internationally - with the opportunity to work with major real estate developers, award-winning design firms, and top tier construction companies. The Energy PM will also be a technically proficient team player able to provide detailed review of project work and will be integrated into a team of talented SOCOTEC professionals. 

SOCOTEC has completed over 500 LEED projects worldwide, at the forefront of energy and materials innovation, and has been actively involved in the U.S. Green Building Council since its inception.  On energy, SOCOTEC personnel worked on many firsts – the first net-zero US building, the first US environmental high rise residences, the first US environmental office tower, and continued with many others, including currently some of the most efficient all-electric/low carbon buildings. 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.
