An exciting opportunity has opened up for a Building Technology Engineer to join a growing intelligent buildings team at the forefront of smart infrastructure delivery. This role offers the chance to work on some of the UK’s most innovative education, commercial and defence projects – helping deliver fully integrated building automation and BACS solutions.
This position would suit an engineer with a solid understanding of building automation protocols (e.g. KNX, ModBus, BACnet) and a passion for creating high-performance, energy-efficient and intuitive building systems. The successful candidate will play a vital role in supporting the development and commissioning of intelligent building technology, from design through to testing and on-site delivery.
Working closely with design engineers, software developers, and commissioning teams, the Building Technology Engineer will assist in developing system architecture, programming logic (FBD/LUA), FAT testing and live commissioning activities. The role will be based in London, with occasional travel to offsite facilities and project locations (including a factory and workshop).
