The Penn State Facilities Engineering Institute (PSFEI) is seeking an experienced HVAC Mechanical Engineer to provide technical advisory services for HVAC systems and energy management for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's historic sites and agencies.

Who We Are

The Penn State Facilities Engineering Institute (PSFEI) is a front-facing, non-academic unit that has had a rich tradition of providing facility engineering advisory services since our founding in 1947.
