Lead the design of BMS and EPMS systems, including schematics, riser/network diagrams, panel layouts, and wiring details.
Translate mechanical and electrical plans/specifications into complete automation control designs.
Develop sequences of operation, control narratives, and logic diagrams for advanced mechanical systems.
Produce and review control submittals, bills of material (BOMs), and device specifications.
Engineer system architectures involving BACnet, Modbus, and IP‑based networks, including integration of HVAC, lighting, and metering systems.
Design custom control panels and support shop verification or FAT/SAT testing.
Apply NEC, NFPA, ASHRAE, UL, and related codes across all design deliverables.
Conduct QA/QC reviews of drawings, submittals, and as‑built documents to ensure accuracy and compliance.
Support commissioning, troubleshooting, and system startup activities in collaboration with software and installation teams.
Troubleshoot control, electrical, and network-related issues during project execution.
Evaluate new control hardware, sensors, and energy‑efficiency strategies for potential implementation.
Collaborate with mechanical, software, commissioning, and IT teams to ensure system compatibility, cybersecurity, and reliability.
Provide timely design clarifications and technical support to maintain project schedules.
Contribute to internal standards development, including templates, CAD standards, and design workflows.
Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior and intermediate designers.
Support internal initiatives that advance team skills, design consistency, and engineering best practices.
