Resume Roast for HVAC Engineers

HVAC Engineer resumes get scanned for building types, system types, and code fluency: what you designed, at what tonnage or CFM, under which energy code. Designed HVAC systems is the job title with a verb. The reviewer wants VAV versus VRF versus hydronic experience, load calculations you ran, and buildings where your design met the energy model. Equipment schedules are your evidence; cite them.

What Gabe checks first on a HVAC Engineer resume

Name building types and sizes, like HVAC design for K-12 schools and medical office, 20,000 to 150,000 square feet. Sector match is the first screen.
List system types you have personally designed: VAV air handlers, VRF, chilled beam, dedicated outdoor air. System vocabulary places your depth instantly.
Cite codes and tools in use: ASHRAE 90.1 and 62.1, Manual J or Trace 700 or IES-VE load modeling, plus energy code compliance paths you have run.

Worth knowing

Most ATS software ranks and filters resumes for humans to read. It does not silently reject them. (how applicant tracking systems actually work)
