  • Execute startup and commissioning scripts, complete testing documentation, and generate fault or issue reports as required
  • Redline BMS, EMCS, EPMS, and controls drawings to reflect as-built field conditions
  • Assist with the review of supplier and vendor documentation for compliance with project specifications
  • Apply a working knowledge of basic electrical and mechanical theory
  • Demonstrate familiarity with HVAC systems, including AHUs, CRACs, RTUs, chillers, pumps, and VFDs
