Where is the work:

What's in it for you:

Trane Technologies has an exciting opportunity for a Project Developer with our Life Science Solutions Business. As a Project Developer, you will work with internal teams and customers to identify and develop refrigeration turnkey design-build solutions, with a specific focus on cold room contracting and walk-in refrigeration systems - including walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers, modular cold rooms, and controlled-environment storage. Your responsibilities span the full project lifecycle: scope-of-work development, cost estimating, equipment selection, and engineering coordination.

This role requires deep knowledge of refrigeration systems - especially cold room and walk-in refrigeration construction - combined with strong interpersonal, communication, and project management skills, and the determination and work ethic to succeed in a competitive design-build contracting environment.

The Project Developer is responsible for consultative support of Design-Build Turnkey work across cold room contracting and walk-in refrigeration projects. This position requires mastery of acquisition, technical aptitude, and project management skills.

What you will do:

Develop refrigeration systems and solutions - with a primary emphasis on contracting cold rooms, walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers, and specialty controlled-temperature enclosures - using FARRAR equipment and controls alongside other leading refrigeration systems; responsibilities include project scoping, concept development, engineering analysis, and system validation.

Lead the development of cold room and walk-in refrigeration contracting proposals, including panel system selection (insulated metal panels, floor systems, door hardware), refrigeration equipment specifications, and MEP coordination required for turnkey delivery.

Support Sales Associates in developing and establishing project installation budgets for cold room and walk-in refrigeration contracts, preparing scope summaries and guiding the engineering team on customer requirements.

Provide key technical support to pursue Life Science contracting business, including participation in strategic job acquisition teams for cold room contracting opportunities in pharmaceutical, life sciences, food & beverage, and industrial markets.

Manage the design process for cold room and walk-in refrigeration projects - from conceptual site plans and preliminary engineering documents through construction documents - ensuring designs meet applicable building codes, FDA/GMP compliance standards, and client specifications.

Evaluate and select refrigeration systems appropriate for cold room contracting applications, including single-stage and cascade refrigeration, CO and low-GWP refrigerant systems, self-contained walk-in units, and remote condensing systems.

Coordinate with subcontractors, including panel installers, mechanical contractors, electrical contractors, and controls integrators, to develop complete cold room and walk-in refrigeration contracting packages.

Continually validate the effectiveness of the Design-Build Turnkey process for cold room and walk-in applications; identify and develop process improvements to increase competitiveness and project delivery efficiency.

Responsible for securing customers from Solutions Development through project transition to Fulfillment across cold room contracting and walk-in refrigeration project types.

Assist and support all efforts of acquisition and customer satisfaction.

Some travel is required, and other duties as assigned.

What you will bring:

Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, Construction Management, or a related field - or equivalent field experience in cold room contracting or walk-in refrigeration installation.

Demonstrated experience with cold room and walk-in refrigeration contracting, including knowledge of insulated panel systems, refrigeration equipment selection, door hardware, flooring systems, and cold room construction sequencing.

Ability to audit existing refrigeration and control systems - including walk-in cooler/freezer systems - and recommend solutions to improve performance, energy efficiency, and regulatory compliance.

Understanding of construction methods and practices specific to cold room and walk-in refrigeration installations, including coordination of panel fabricators, refrigeration contractors, and general contractors; ability to communicate with and direct subcontractors to obtain critical proposal information.

General knowledge of basic engineering, electricity, mechanical refrigeration systems, and the building construction industry, with specific familiarity with walk-in refrigeration system configurations (self-contained, remote, split systems) and cold room construction standards.

Familiarity with refrigerant regulations, including EPA SNAP, CARB compliance, A2L refrigerants, and low-GWP alternatives relevant to walk-in and cold room applications.

Project Management experience required; PMP or equivalent certification a plus.

Ability to develop and write refrigeration system-level sequence of operations and control requirements for cold room environments - including temperature mapping, alarming, and monitoring systems - is a strong benefit.

Proficiency in Visio, AutoCAD, and/or other design software relevant to cold room and walk-in layout design; knowledge of computerized energy simulation tools a plus.

Must possess a valid driver's license for a minimum of 12 months, with no major or frequent traffic violations including, but not limited to: DUI, Hit & Run, License Suspension, Reckless/Careless Driving, or multiple smaller infractions or preventable collisions in the previous 3 years.
