  *   Advanced understanding of building systems across disciplines and proven experience in at least one discipline such as HVAC, plumbing/piping, lighting, instrumentation and controls, or building envelope systems.
  *   Advanced understanding of major tenets of high performance design including renewable and alternative energy strategies, daylighting, embodied energy, indoor environmental quality, material composition, water efficiency, life cycle assessment, and built environment planning.
  *   Ability to use at least one building system simulation tool, including EnergyPlus, IES-VE, TRNSYS, CFD, or Radiance, for consulting and analysis. Strong understanding and application of simulation tools for the appropriate systems and technologies.

*        Experience in computer operation for building system analysis and engineering calculation programs.

*        Proficiency in use of CAD/BIM software as necessary for building performance analysis and consulting.

*        Understanding of applicable rating systems, design codes and standards, and ability to interpret them.

*        Industry certification or license applicable to building system design and performance including but not limited to LEED AP, ASHRAE HPDP, ASHRAE BEMP, ASHRAE BEAP, Green Globes Professional, or AEE CEM.
