What are the responsibilities and job description for the Engineer position at The JPI Group?
Hybrid role in the MD area
2-6 years of engineering experience
Support of demand response, commercial and industrial lighting, and commercial new construction programs. This position will support energy assessment work – identifying demand response load reduction plans and energy efficiency measures. Candidates should have a strong understanding of building energy systems. Knowledge of the building design and construction process is helpful but not required. Energy modeling using software such as Equest, IES-VE and Energy Plus is desired. They will be traveling to different commercial & industrial facilities (example a manufacturing site/company) and conducting the audits. The end goal is to tell the client what upgrades or efficiencies they can do to reduce their energy consumption
Specific Duties:
Collaborate and work within multi-disciplinary teams to perform and lead technical work supporting energy efficiency and demand response programs.
Independently conduct field investigations and develop demand response load reduction plans for commercial and industrial sites
Support lighting-related measure development and provide QA/QC review of complex projects
Provide technical review of custom projects submitted with energy calculations and software simulations (such as Energy Plus, Equest, IES-VE)
Manage important and complex technical work independently and with minimal technical supervision
Perform ASHRAE level II audits unassisted at commercial and industrial facilities: author IPMVP compliant measurement and verification plans and reports
Communicate with the customer to obtain the information needed to complete calculations and reports
Provide support for program designs, such as selecting measure builds, forecasting, and establishing verification protocols
