    Who is Chinook?

    Chinook works with key building stakeholders to make their facilities secure, compliant, and efficient. We assess, quantify, and prioritize their needs, and systematically implement change to optimize operations.

    Our work results in better building performance, ease of maintenance, and reduced energy use and utility costs to realize cost savings in both new and existing facilities.

    We ensure systems and equipment are designed, constructed, and operating in accordance with the owner's project requirements, and maintain compliance with codes, standards, regulations, and industry best practices.

    We lower operational risk exposure and implement proactive cybersecurity measures to protect Operational Technology and reduce a client's threat landscape.

    Are you?


    Looking for challenging and rewarding work alongside some the best in the business? Energized by finding new solutions and technologies that benefit your clients, improve efficiency, and make buildings and the environment better? Eager to work in a setting where you can make a difference, be involved from strategy through implementation, and can see your ideas come to life? Do you thrive in an environment where initiative is rewarded with opportunity? If your answer to these questions was a "Yes" then Chinook may be the right fit for you.


    And a few more things are you flexible in your work schedule and work location? Our work allows for some work from home, but it also requires us to be hands-on for our clients when and where they need us.

    Are you up for a little adventure? Chinook performs work in some interesting places well worth visiting, and you might want in on that.


    The Work:

    Chinook has built a reputation for excellence in our industry and the EE will uphold that tradition by being diligent, proactive, solutions-oriented and a facilitator of success for team members, both internal and external.
