  • Deep knowledge of HVAC systems, HVAC construction practices, HVAC controls, BAS/Building Automation Systems, and MEP coordination.
  • Experience with commercial building projects and working knowledge of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems integration.
  • Strong understanding of codes, standards, and regulations (e.g., ASHRAE, NEC, local mechanical/plumbing codes) and commissioning best practices.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage project budgets, schedules, subcontractors, and change management processes.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, client-facing, and interpersonal skills; ability to lead multi-discipline teams and build strong client relationships.
