Edo partners with utilities to transform commercial buildings into efficient contributors to the electric grid. We have a bold vision: a future where clean energy is reliable, affordable, and empowers communities everywhere. The energy sector is undergoing its most dramatic transformation in decades, with the U.S. power grid being reimagined to meet evolving technological, environmental, and economic needs. Edo develops innovative energy efficiency and demand flexibility solutions that help utilities and building owners navigate this shift while ensuring grid reliability and operational efficiency. Let’s shape the future of energy together.

The Opportunity with Edo

We are adding an HVAC Controls Engineer to our growing Edo division in San Francisco. Commercial and industrial buildings currently consume energy with no visibility to larger utility constraints like generation and transmission congestion. Utilities produce energy with no visibility into how and where energy is being consumed by end users. Edo provides software-based energy management tools and services to transform how buildings consume and produce energy, and how they communicate with utilities.

The HVAC Controls Engineer will be part of Edo’s Research and Development (R&D) Team. This position will be responsible for developing new HVAC control logic to improve energy efficiency and optimally shift and shed electrical load in buildings. We are looking for candidates with industry experience in designing and implementing HVAC control sequences, and time-series data analysis using programming languages like Python, Matlab, R or similar.

• Design, implement and optimize HVAC control sequences for existing buildings, with a focus on shifting and shedding electrical load and improving energy efficiency.

• Develop control sequences that co-optimize electricity use in buildings with on-site distributed energy resources (DERs) like rooftop photovoltaics (PV), batteries, and electric vehicle charging systems.

• Evaluate the performance of control logic by developing custom time series data analysis tools in Python.

• Collaborate with Edo’s software development team to deploy and evaluate machine learning-based control algorithms.

• Collaborate with Edo’s engineering team to remotely evaluate HVAC system performance.

• Present your results to internal and external teams.

What You Need to Succeed at Edo

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering (architectural, mechanical, operations research or related), computer science, physics, or closely related quantitative field.
• A minimum of 5 years of experience with designing HVAC controls, monitoring-based commissioning (MBCx), or building energy engineering.
• Experience designing, implementing, and optimizing HVAC control sequences to improve energy efficiency and enhance indoor air quality.
• Three or more years of experience with programming in Python, Matlab, R or similar.
• Three or more years of experience with time series data analysis.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Enjoys collaborative problem solving and fosters a creative and inclusive company culture.
