Green Building Consultant

Luxus is hiring a Building Performance Analyst in Irving, TX. The role involves developing energy models, collaborating with design teams for energy-efficient solutions, and ensuring compliance with energy codes. Candidates should have a relevant degree, experience with IES software, and knowledge of building systems and sustainability practices. Excellent communication skills are essential for presenting findings to stakeholders. This is a full-time position.
We are seeking a highly skilled Building Performance Analyst to join our team at Luxus. As a key member of our design team, you will play a critical role in evaluating the energy efficiency and sustainability of buildings by performing energy modeling, energy optimization, and supporting the design of energy-efficient systems.
Key Responsibilities:
• Develop and maintain complex energy models using IES software (VE) to evaluate building performance in terms of energy consumption, heating, cooling, lighting, and HVAC systems.
• Collaborate with architects, engineers, and project teams to provide energy analysis and recommendations for energy-efficient designs and sustainable building practices.
• Prepare energy models for compliance with local and international building energy codes and certification systems (e.g., LEED, BREEAM, etc.).
• Conduct daylighting analysis, thermal comfort studies, and HVAC load simulations to support building design optimization.
• Provide energy simulations for both new construction projects and retrofits, helping to minimize energy use while maximizing comfort and performance.

As a seasoned Building Performance Analyst, you will analyze and interpret energy modeling results, generating reports that communicate findings and recommendations clearly and effectively to stakeholders. You will also stay up-to-date with the latest industry trends, tools, and regulations related to energy modeling and building performance.
Requirements:
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Building Services Engineering, Architecture, or a related field.
• At least 2 years of hands-on experience using IES (Integrated Environmental Solutions) software for energy modeling and building performance simulation.
• Strong knowledge of building systems, energy-efficient design principles, HVAC, lighting systems, and sustainable design practices.
• Proficiency in energy modeling, simulation, and analysis, particularly for commercial and residential buildings.
• Familiarity with local building codes, energy standards, and sustainability certifications (e.g., ASHRAE, LEED, BREEAM, etc.).
• Strong problem-solving abilities and attention to detail.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present technical results clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
