Who we are...
At Ecosystem we believe we should be accountable for results. That’s why we've integrated engineering and construction, seeing our projects through from design concept to implementation and commissioning.

Why this role matters… 
As a Project Development Engineer at Ecosystem, you’ll play a key role in reshaping how energy infrastructure projects are conceived and delivered.

You’ll lead the early development of high-impact, capital-intensive projects; translating complex needs into innovative, technically sound solutions that drive energy efficiency, asset renewal, and cost savings. If you're motivated by complex challenges, and seeing your ideas come to life, this is where you’ll thrive!

  • Build strong relationships with stakeholders, positioning Ecosystem as the partner of choice, recognized for our technical depth and expertise

  • Conduct site assessments: including site walk throughs, drawing reviews and system evaluations (HVAC, electrical, controls, ...) 
  • Undertake various technical analyses, tailoring your approach to meet client’s operational, financial, and environmental objectives  
  • Work hand-in-hand with the Business Development Manager to guide projects from early-stage concept to contract, be accountable for technical insights 

Your profile...

  • Ability to develop relationships quickly and establish credibility through technical conversations, ultimately leading to becoming the client’s advisor 
  • Proven ability to develop technical concepts and project proposals for energy retrofits and infrastructure upgrades  
  • Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, compelling presentations for technical and non-technical stakeholders   
  • 5+ years of relevant experience in buildings and energy efficiency 
  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering, or other related discipline

What Ecosystem offers...

  • A unique opportunity to join a team driving the energy transition- while others talk, we deliver results! 
  • Annual base salary (approx. $100,000 - $150,000). This is an approximate range and dependent on location and years of relevant experience 
  • Tailored career growth and development opportunities through mentorship, training, and career planning  
  • Generous time off: enjoy a minimum of 15 vacation days, 5 personal days, 10 public holidays, and a year-end holiday closure 
  • Employer contribution to 401(k) and complete Group Insurance offer with employer contribution and easy access to health and support through Telemedicine and Employee Assistance Program    
  • At Ecosystem, our Approach to Working Together is built on trust, collaboration, and accountability. While flexibility depends on the role, some teams have set expectations for time on-site or in the office. We come together intentionally during key moments to connect, learn, and succeed as a team
  • Thriving people-first culture: we put our values in action in DEI, CSR, Innovation, and Social committees, and celebrate our shared success at events like Ecofest

  • Join a mission-driven, stable organization with over 30 years of experience modernizing the built environment- delivering guaranteed results and generating 30%+ in energy savings!

At Ecosystem, we believe in building meaningful relationships with both our clients and employees. With curiosity and collaboration, we do breakthrough work so our clients achieve environmental, financial, and operational results and reach their ambitious decarbonization goals.

When we sit around the table with our clients, solving problems in their buildings, we work together to align our interests and identify the outcomes important to them. From the outset, we believe that accountability for achieving the outcomes that matter to our clients should completely lie with us. After all, we are engineers with three decades of experience in energy retrofits, and our proven expertise and track record of innovation is why we are invited to the table in the first place.

To be accountable, we've built a business that re-connects engineering design, construction and commissioning with a total focus on delivering results. This way, we can contractually guarantee the outcomes that mean the most to our clients while acting as a single point of contact throughout each step of the journey.
