Ameresco's Smart Building Solutions Group is hiring students graduating in December 2026 or spring 2027 who want to begin a career in building automation and controls. Building automation systems use sensors, controllers, software and networks to help operate a building's heating, cooling and other mechanical systems efficiently and reliably. As an entry-level technician, you'll learn how these systems are installed, tested, programmed and commissioned while working alongside experienced controls professionals on active projects. This is a full-time, entry-level position, not an internship. Previous professional controls experience is not required. If you have a strong HVAC or electrical foundation, enjoy troubleshooting and want to learn the controls side of the industry, we want to talk with you. The role combines hands-on field work with laptop-based troubleshooting and system checkout. Some days you may be installing or testing devices in a mechanical room. Other days you may be reviewing drawings, troubleshooting a controls issue or helping get a building automation system up and running. Responsibilities Assist with installation of control panels, field devices, sensors and actuators under the guidance of senior technicians. Pull, label and terminate control wiring in accordance with company standards and electrical codes. Perform basic checkout and verification of installed devices. Support point-to-point testing, system startup and commissioning. Help identify wiring, device and communication issues on active projects. Use meters, diagnostic tools and software to troubleshoot control system performance. Maintain accurate as-built notes, redline drawings and daily progress records. Build foundational knowledge of HVAC equipment, mechanical systems, Direct Digital Controls (DDC), controls programming, building automation system graphics and control networks. Perfom other duties as assigned. Minimum Qualifications We are especially interested in students completing an HVAC, HVACR, electro-mechanical or building automation associate degree program. Students with controls focused coursework or certificates will be given special consideration. Expected graduation in December 2026 or spring 2027. Coursework, labs, an internship or other hands‑on experience involving HVAC, electrical controls, building automation, networking or programming. Basic familiarity with electrical wiring practices, hand tools and test equipment. Ability to read and interpret basic wiring diagrams and construction drawings. Mechanical aptitude, attention to detail and a genuine interest in learning building controls. Additional Qualifications Strong communication, teamwork, reliability and a safety-conscious approach. Valid driver's license and reliable transportation. Ability to lift up to 50 pounds, climb ladders and work safely in construction and mechanical environments. Early-career applicants are encouraged to apply. Professional controls experience is not required. Coursework, labs, projects, internships and other technical experience all count.
