About Veritas Solutions Group

Veritas Solutions Group is a recognized industry leader in building commissioning and system optimization. We specialize in hands-on, technically rigorous commissioning of complex building systems for some of New York City’s most high-profile and operationally demanding facilities.

Our work goes beyond checklists and minimum compliance. We focus on system operability, performance verification, and optimization—delivering immediate and long-term value through improved reliability, energy efficiency, and maintainability. Our engineers are embedded in projects from early design through post-occupancy, working directly with owners, design teams, contractors, and operators to ensure systems perform as intended in the real world.

Role: Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing Commissioning Engineer

Veritas is seeking a Commissioning Engineer (MEP) to join our field-oriented engineering team. This role is designed for engineers who want to develop deep technical competence, take ownership of their work, and operate independently in active construction and operating environments.

This is an exacting, performance-driven role. Engineers receive direct training and mentorship from senior commissioning engineers but are expected to quickly develop the judgment, confidence, and technical rigor required to represent Veritas independently in the field. Success in this position requires attention to detail, strong technical fundamentals, and the ability to identify and resolve system-level issues under real-world constraints.

You will work on complex projects across commercial real estate, healthcare, financial services, hospitality, and multi-family sectors, gaining exposure to advanced HVAC, electrical, controls, and life-safety systems.

Core Responsibilities

Commissioning Engineers at Veritas are expected to actively lead and execute commissioning activities, including:

Writing and executing pre-functional and functional performance test procedures
Managing and coordinating commissioning activities across multiple trades and stakeholders
Conducting field inspections, system walkthroughs, and verification activities
Directing and witnessing unitary and integrated system functional testing
Analyzing system performance using trending data, site measurements, and historical operating data
Troubleshooting HVAC, electrical, and control system deficiencies in collaboration with contractors and controls vendors
Reviewing and overseeing Testing & Balancing (TAB) activities and documentation
Maintaining clear, defensible commissioning records and test documentation
Producing comprehensive technical reports, including deficiencies, root cause analysis, and operational recommendations
Leading commissioning meetings with owners, engineers, and contractors

Additional Responsibilities

Commissioning Engineers will work with their team and leaders to support the project activities, including:

Supporting the development of Owner’s Project Requirements (OPR) and Basis of Design (BOD) documentation
Performing detailed design and submittal reviews with a focus on constructability, operability, and performance risk
Developing project-specific commissioning plans, schedules, and execution strategies

Expectations & Work Environment

Engineers are expected to operate independently in the field once trained
Work is conducted in active construction sites, mechanical rooms, rooftops, and occupied buildings
Precision, technical credibility, and professional judgment are required at all times
The role may require early mornings, late evenings, or weekend work to support system testing and critical milestones
This position is best suited for individuals who value accountability, technical depth, and continuous learning

Qualifications

Minimum 2+ years of hands-on commissioning experience with MEP systems
Working knowledge of applicable codes and standards, including IMCC, IFGC, IECC, NEC, NFPA, and ASHRAE
Understanding of HVAC systems, controls sequences, and system interactions
Familiarity with electrical system testing and inspection practices
Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities without sacrificing quality
Strong written communication skills, particularly for technical documentation and reporting
Willingness to work outside standard business hours as project demands require

Compensation

Estimated Compensation Range: $79,000 – $87,000 annually, plus benefits

Compensation is commensurate with experience and demonstrated technical capability.
