Commissioning Project Development Engineer – Energy Audits, BAS, RCx & Building Optimization
This is a standout opportunity for an engineer who enjoys the intersection of commissioning, energy engineering, project development, and client consulting.
We are seeking a Commissioning Project Development Engineer to support investment-grade energy audits, identify Energy Conservation Measures, develop project scopes, coordinate with contractors, and help clients optimize building systems. This role is ideal for someone who understands HVAC systems, Building Automation Systems, controls, retro-commissioning, and energy performance contracting.
What You’ll Do
As a Commissioning Project Development Engineer, you will:
- Perform investment-grade energy audits and facility assessments.
- Identify Energy Conservation Measures and building optimization opportunities.
- Evaluate HVAC systems, controls, BAS sequences, and operational performance.
- Support retro-commissioning and commissioning-related project development.
- Develop technical scopes, project recommendations, and implementation strategies.
- Coordinate with contractors, vendors, facility teams, and internal engineering groups.
- Work directly with clients to understand facility needs and develop practical solutions.
- Support energy performance contracting, building optimization, and modernization projects.

Strong candidates will have experience with:
- HVAC systems
- Building Automation Systems
- Controls and sequences of operation
- Retro-commissioning or commissioning
- ASHRAE energy audits
- Energy Conservation Measures

Why This Role Stands Out
This role blends technical engineering, field investigation, client consulting, project development, and commissioning. You will not be limited to one narrow function. Instead, you will help uncover building performance issues, shape project solutions, and support meaningful infrastructure improvements from concept through execution.
For the right engineer, this is a highly engaging role with technical variety, client visibility, and strong long-term growth potential.
