Purpose or function
of position:
Our Sustainable Design Engineer will be responsible for
reviewing building designs in the early stages of development and
recommend energy-saving alternatives to baseline, or conventional
equipment and systems. Energy-saving alternatives will be simulated
using DOE-2 (Visual DOE or eQuest), and many times using a combination
of building simulator and custom calculation as designs incorporate
features that DOE-2 does not accommodate.

engineer may also facilitate the LEED®
certification process in a consulting role. This includes initial
points list development, preparation and leading kickoff meetings or
design charrettes, documenting Michaels’ portion of the project, which
typically includes mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design, and
managing the LEED®-related
activities of other stakeholders in the project to ensure successful
certification.
