Dear building simulation experts,

We are recruiting for an Assistant Professional Researcher (the
research-track equivalent
of the Professor position) within the Center for the Built Environment
<http://cbe.berkeley.edu/> at the University of California Berkeley.
We are seeking
a person to lead research on heating, ventilation and air conditioning
(HVAC) systems, building performance simulation, occupancy detection, and
plug load management.

*Responsibilities*

The successful candidate’s main duties and responsibilities will consist of:

   - Participating in and leading research projects in building science
   that include building performance simulation, laboratory experiments, field
   studies of occupant comfort, energy performance, and other aspects of
   building performance.
   - Developing research capabilities and directions for the HVAC and
   building performance assessment team at CBE; identifying trends in research
   and helping to develop the corresponding team capabilities required to take
   on the associated research challenges.
   - Identifying funding opportunities at government agencies, industry and
   philanthropic organizations; leading proposals to apply to those
   opportunities.
   - Overseeing simulation or experimental design and set-up, including
   data acquisition systems, calibration, physical measurements, human and
   building performance assessments, and simulation methods.
   - Supervising and conducting experiments in laboratory settings, field
   studies, or simulation contexts.
   - Overseeing and conducting comprehensive data analysis including both
   qualitative and quantitative data, and design tool development.
   - Writing technical documents and presenting research results, as well
   as preparing project reports for funding agencies and/or industry partners.
   - Writing articles for refereed academic journals, industry
   publications, and/or conferences.
   - Managing research project budgets.
   - Supervising and training graduate students and other team members
   working on research projects.
   - Participating in standards and code development and with professional
   associations, for example, ASHRAE or IBPSA.
