This position demands strong leadership, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to troubleshoot issues across time zones without on‑site presence.

Key responsibilities include leading a virtual commissioning team, preparing detailed commissioning protocols, conducting remote testing and validation, documenting findings, and delivering comprehensive commissioning reports. You’ll also mentor junior staff, track project milestones, and continuously improve commissioning processes to enhance efficiency and compliance.

A minimum of 8‑10 years of commissioning experience, with at least 3 years in a supervisory capacity, is essential. Proven proficiency with remote collaboration tools, strong analytical skills, and excellent written/verbal communication are critical.

Candidates must be self‑motivated, able to thrive in a distributed work environment, and demonstrate the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting tight deadlines. Familiarity with industry standards such as ASHRAE, IEC, and ISO 19011 is highly desirable.
