  • Support integration of third-party systems (chillers, meters, power monitoring, etc.)
  • Perform functional testing, startup, and system validation
  • Provide technical support to customers, including system upgrades and enhancements
  • Assist with mentoring junior technicians and supporting field teams as needed
  • Maintain accurate documentation including as-builts, point lists, and system databases
  • Collaborate with PMs, engineers, and contractors from install through turnover

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of Building Automation / Controls experience
  • Strong experience with Siemens BAS (Desigo CC, Apogee, DXR) or JCI Metasys and/or Niagara platforms
  • Solid understanding of BACnet/IP, system integration, and BAS networks
