The Energy Systems Mechanical Engineer position offers a unique opportunity to leverage engineering skills in the pursuit of enhancing energy and climate resilience for the Department of Defense (DoD). This role focuses on the evaluation of energy systems, requiring a deep understanding of the complexities involved in developing innovative solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing mechanical systems. The engineer will play a crucial role in identifying vulnerabilities within the infrastructure that supports critical missions and will work towards establishing energy resilience solutions that not only enhance mission assurance but also incorporate carbon pollution-free technologies. As part of a dedicated team, the engineer will support the DoD's mission readiness by ensuring that both personnel and equipment are adequately prepared for critical operations. The transition from fossil fuel to electric HVAC systems is a key focus area, and the engineer will specialize in identifying energy resilience gaps and proposing projects that fulfill mission requirements. This position requires a mechanical engineer with a solid background in energy system evaluation and project development, who can provide insightful recommendations to improve energy systems and influence the DoD's energy decision-making processes. The engineer will collaborate with military installations to assess energy vulnerabilities and propose comprehensive projects that encompass all aspects of energy and climate resiliency, including electrical, mechanical, water, fuel, and communications systems. Additionally, the role involves exploring the potential for renewable energy solutions as alternatives to traditional generation methods, thereby directly impacting the energy sector. This position presents an exciting opportunity to tackle challenges within the DoD and redefine resilience in energy systems.
