[BLDG-SIM] 2 job openings in building simulation, controls and diagnostics

[Wetter, Michael UTRC]

The Systems Department at the United Technologies Research Center (UTRC,
East Hartford, CT) invites applications for a Buildings Systems and
Architecture technical contributor position within the Systems
Engineering Group. The Systems Engineering Group works within integrated
product development teams to perform requirements analysis and system
architecture trade-off analysis for product and process solutions. 
 
The successful candidate will provide technical expertise and direction
in the area of building simulation for energy analysis and indoor
environmental quality, and building automation for supervisory control
of HVAC/R systems. Of particular interest are demonstrated experience
with building simulation programs (EnergyPlus, DOE-2, Trane Trace 700,
TRNSYS), zonal models and CFD for building air flow, and building
commissioning and diagnostic methods. 
 
United Technologies Corporation, a Fortune top 50 company is a dynamic
global corporation operating at the leading edge of commercial and
military aviation, aerospace systems, climate control, elevator design,
security and fire protection as well as hydrogen fuel cell development. 
UTRC partners with the other United Technologies Corporation business
units (Pratt & Whitney, Sikorsky Aircraft, Hamilton Sundstrand, Otis,
Carrier, UTC Fire & Security, and UTC Power) to impact UTC growth
through disruptive innovation that is manifested in new products and new
processes. To realize this mission UTRC works with the best research and
academic organizations in the world providing opportunities for external
collaboration. 

The Systems department enables innovations in products at the systems
level through a focus on producing total integrated solutions targeted
at increasing revenue for UTC. The department has strong competencies
rooted in mathematical modeling, analysis, optimization, and control.
Our mathematical models are validated in world-class prototyping and
experimental facilities. The models used as a basis for conceptual
design, system optimization, and validation. The department is growing
in the direction of integrated buildings, communication networks (wired
and wireless), rigorous embedded systems design methods, distributed
controls, hybrid systems, and systems engineering. 

Required: MS in Mechanical, Civil or Architectural Engineering or
similar field with 7+ years of professional experience. 
Preferred: Ph.D. in Mechanical, Civil or Architectural Engineering or
similar field with 4+ years of professional experience. 
Demonstrated ability to lead and work as part of a multidisciplinary
team 
Solid technical writing, presentation, and communication skills 
Demonstrated project management skills 
Demonstrated success in interactions with US Government funding agencies
such as DOE and DARPA is a plus 

Experience developing methodologies for evaluating energy performance in
commercial buildings. 
Knowledge of modeling techniques for building indoor environmental
quality prediction and control would be highly desired. 
Experience in building simulation (energy, air flow, pollutant
transport, daylighting) application and model development would be
highly desired. 
Field experience performing building energy audits and commissioning is
highly desired. 
Hold membership in a professional society such as ASHRAE or Association
of Energy Services Professionals is an asset. 

United Technologies Corporation is An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative
Action Employer.
