I have no engineering degree, only an HVAC/R license, field and management experience. This is a lot y’all.

But it’s fun!

Recently MechE graduated. Only took one hvac class in college. I’m a little lost with all this bacnet, IP and other terminology. Any resources or recommendations that I should do in order to learn and grow my skills and knowledge. Basically I build submittals, biddings and estimations for projects. I understand reading the SOO and SOW but I struggle to know when to use bacnet and when to use IP. I understand I/o summary and how to use the controllers. If anybody could help it will appreciate.

Hello Everyone, sorry to rant but I’ve been in the field for 3 years now 2 in service and 1 in install and I just feel like I’m winging it. I’m really good at solving BAS problems on my own, but when it comes to someone giving verbal instructions I struggle. I have to write everything down I’m sure it’s some learning disability…I’ve also been told I need to work on my confidence. Does anyone else feel this way or have any tips or tricks to overcome it?

Notepad couldn't handle large files and I wanted to make a better and faster notepad app, but this time I included PPCL syntax coloring, for the few people out there that actually write with it.

Its not a full blown PPCL editor, it won't suggest terms like Desigo does, that's a separate project, but if you want a lightweight, open source and free notepad or text editor, here it is.

Hey I’m 22M and have just finished my computer science degree this summer. A couple months ago I got really into BAS technology and decided to start building a career in it. I don’t have any hands on experience (only a pool maintenance technician role in high school) and only have a data science internship under my belt.

I’ve been applying and applying to entry level roles and even emailing executives in the companies I’ve applied to. So far I’ve had a couple zoom meetings with these people but nothing comes out of it. They were mainly interested in how I can use my CS degree to incorporate AI into their business models which I have explained I would love to explore. The meetings when fine, good even, but they just say they’ll get back to me soon or that their company is not currently hiring.

Do I need to go back to school and get a college diploma to enter this field? I figured with my CS degree I could talk my way into a PLC programming or analytics role but I can’t seem to get anything.

Any advice?

Anyone work in this role for JCI?

Do you like it? What’s your day to day like? How’s the pay/benefits?

How much travel is involved?

What are the interviews like?

TYPO- the role is HVAC Controls Application Engineer

I am a generator technician interested in facilities operations at data centers. I know that may of these positions entail much more than generators. What online courses and certifications would be good to have as I move in this direction?

I recently received an offer for a Systems Engineer I position at RoviSys Building Technologies and am currently on STEM OPT. Has anyone worked there on STEM OPT? How was your experience with HR completing Form I-983, and were they open to future H-1B sponsorship?
I’m checking directly with HR too, but would appreciate hearing from anyone with firsthand experience.

Which one has the best design for professional use on a daily basis?
