Job Description

Energy Analyst / HVAC Energy Auditor (Remote, No Travel)

Location:

Fully remote (U.S.) --

no travel

Employment:

Part time

Role Summary

We're hiring an Energy Analyst / HVAC Energy Auditor to perform

remote

building energy analysis for multifamily and light commercial properties. You'll work from provided field data (photos, logs, drawings, utility bills) to quantify savings (kWh, therms, MMBtu), build baseline vs. proposed models, and produce submission-ready technical reports for utility/state efficiency incentives.

Excellent English--written and spoken--is required

for clear technical documentation and client communication.

Key Responsibilities

Analyze building/hvac/envelope data gathered by on-site partners; request clarifications and missing datapoints. Develop energy-efficiency measures and calculate savings, costs, and payback; account for interactive effects. Build/calibrate spreadsheet calculators and energy models; perform QA/QC on assumptions and results. Prepare complete technical packages: scope of work, savings summaries, cost/benefit, sequence of operations, and M&V plan. Translate reviewer feedback into precise revisions; maintain organized, version-controlled calculations and reports. Coordinate remotely with property teams, contractors, and internal PMs; maintain professional, clear English communication.
