As the Sr. Building Performance Engineer you will lead Armstrong’s building-energy modeling program to quantify and communicate the performance impact of our energy-efficient products and accelerate their adoption in U.S. commercial buildings. You’ll work primarily in IESVE (ModelIT, Apache/ApacheHVAC, VistaPro; VE Navigators for ASHRAE 90.1/LEED/Title 24) to consult on projects and deliver code-compliance, LEED, and owner-option analyses comparing designs using Armstrong solutions to baseline cases. Core focus areas include assessing Templok™ PCM ceiling tiles (and future products) for new construction and renovations; quantifying cost/benefit; and recommending design and operational strategies using the Templok model in IESVE 2025. You will also run calibrated simulations to support M&V, translate findings into reports and technical marketing content, and educate the market via webinars and conference sessions. The role blends technical sales, building-energy modeling expertise, and cross-functional collaboration to shape Armstrong’s energy-solutions portfolio and accelerate market adoption with clear, defensible modeling evidence.

 

What’s in it for you?

• Shape the future of sustainable building design by leading cutting-edge energy modeling that drives adoption of innovative, high-performance products across the U.S. commercial building sector.
• Blend technical depth with real-world impact—combine simulation expertise, design consulting, and market education to influence how architects and engineers achieve energy efficiency and comfort.
• Work at the intersection of innovation and leadership—collaborate across R&D, sales, and marketing while mentoring peers and defining modeling standards that set industry benchmarks.
