BAS Controls Engineer

Position Overview: We are seeking a skilled BAS Controls Engineer to design, commission, and maintain building automation systems that optimize HVAC performance, energy efficiency, and occupant comfort. The role involves collaborating with mechanical and electrical teams, programming and troubleshooting controllers and field devices, and ensuring systems meet performance and regulatory requirements.

Key Responsibilities: Design, program, and configure Building Automation Systems (BAS) including controllers, field devices, and supervisory software. Commission, test, and troubleshoot HVAC controls and BAS installations to verify functionality and performance. Develop control sequences, logic diagrams, and point schedules to meet project specifications and energy optimization goals. Perform site visits to inspect equipment, collect data, and verify sensor/calibration accuracy. Collaborate with project engineers, contractors, and facility managers to integrate BAS with mechanical, electrical, and IT systems. Create and maintain system documentation including loop diagrams, wiring schematics, as-built drawings, and operation manuals. Provide training and technical support to commissioning teams, facility staff, and end users. Analyze system data and implement fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) and optimization strategies to improve system efficiency and reduce operating costs. Ensure compliance with applicable codes, standards, and cybersecurity best practices for building automation. Participate in pre-construction meetings, design reviews, and project handover activities to ensure seamless implementation.

Qualifications: Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Building Systems, or related field, or equivalent experience.3+ years of experience designing, commissioning, or maintaining Building Automation Systems (BAS) and HVAC controls. Proficiency with common BAS platforms (e.g., Niagara, Tridium, Johnson Controls, Siemens, Honeywell) and familiarity with BACnet, Modbus, and other communication protocols. Strong programming skills for controllers and supervisory systems; ability to develop control sequences and troubleshoot logic. Experience with sensors, actuators, VAV, AHU, chilled water systems, and other HVAC equipment. Knowledge of energy management, fault detection & diagnostics (FDD), and building performance optimization techniques. Excellent problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills; experience working on construction sites and in facility environments. Familiarity with cybersecurity considerations for BAS, and with relevant codes and standards (ASHRAE, NFPA, local codes).Professional certifications such as CEM, LEED, BTL (Building Commissioning), or vendor-specific BAS certifications are a plus.
