Start Date: ASAP
Type: Temporary Project
Estimated Duration: 12 months with possible extensions
Work Setting: Onsite preferred but open to remote for the right candidate. With travel occasionally for project, vendor, and site visits.
Only candidates able to relocate as required should apply to avoid removal from future consideration.
Our client is filling this contract position exclusively through approved staffing partners, so this opportunity is not available by applying directly with the client. If you're interested, we'd be happy to represent you throughout the hiring process.
Required:
• Availability to work 100% of the time at the Client's site in Juno Beach, FL (required).
• Experience with Outdoor/environmental acoustics, acoustic modeling, noise control, or a closely related technical field (5+ years).
• Experience with CadnaA.
• Experience with Noise-reduction technologies.
• Experience with Interpretation of noise ordinances and permitting criteria.
• Experience with HVAC/chiller acoustics.
• Experience with International Organization for Standardization (ISO) acoustic standards.
• Experience with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) acoustic standards.
• Experience with Microsoft Excel.
• Experience with Geographic Information System (GIS).
• Experience with Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled engineering tools and workflows.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Acoustical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Physics, or a similar technical discipline.
• Willingness to travel occasionally for project, vendor, and site visits.
Preferred:
• Experience with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
• Experience with Power Conversion Systems (PCS)/inverters.
• Experience with Transformers.
• Experience with Renewable-energy permitting.
• Experience with Utility-scale project development.
• Institute of Noise Control Engineering (INCE) certification.
Responsibilities:
• Serve as the outdoor and environmental acoustics SME for utility-scale BESS projects, providing technical leadership on acoustic modeling, community-noise impacts, and project-specific acoustics decisions.
• Perform and review outdoor acoustic modeling using CadnaA or other appropriate tools to evaluate project layouts, sound propagation, receptor impacts, and design alternatives.
• Review acoustic studies prepared by consultants and verify key assumptions, methodologies, model inputs, vendor acoustic information, and conclusions before they are relied upon for project decisions or permitting.
• Translate acoustic findings into practical project-design recommendations, including equipment selection, equipment layout, setbacks, barriers or enclosures, HVAC and chiller design, and other noise-control measures.
• Evaluate practical noise-reduction solutions for HVAC and chiller systems, PCS/inverters, transformers/GSUs, substations, and other BESS equipment.
• Work directly with equipment manufacturers and vendors to communicate project noise requirements and goals, troubleshoot acoustic issues, and identify lower-noise equipment or mitigation options.
• Maintain accountability for project noise requirements, vendor submittals, and acoustic test methods aligned with applicable ISO, ANSI, and other relevant industry standards.
Why apply?
• Gain experience with one of the world's largest solar and wind energy providers, which last year briefly became the most valued U.S. energy company.
• Work with a great team of professionals and learn newest technologies and approaches.
• Enjoy our Client's wonderful campus with top-notch facilities for work and recreation.
• Benefit from multiple projects extensions.
• Receive support and advice from Vitaver consultants who are already working at our Client's site.
• Get extra cash by participating in Vitaver Successful Completion Bonus Program.
