What does the day look like?
Between 30% and 50% of your working time is spent on site. You visit commercial buildings, factories, boiler rooms, and HVAC plants to carry out physical measurements using FLIR thermal cameras, ultrasonic flow meters, Testo combustion gas analysers, Fluke power loggers, and blower-door airtightness testing systems.
The remaining 50% to 70% of the day is analytical office work. You process energy consumption data, build thermal simulations in EnergyPlus, eQuest, OpenStudio, IES VE, or AutoCAD, and draft audit reports following ISO 50002 or ASHRAE guidelines. Work is typically 40 hours per week, though periodic off-peak, night, or weekend visits are required to log equipment baselines when facilities shut down.
