After graduating from Colorado State University with a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Josh Ironside began his career in construction building combined cycle power plants in the South East United States where he was responsible for the Structural and Mechanical coordination. After traveling all over the United States (and Japan), he realized that living out of two suitcases was not his life path. He moved back to the Pacific Northwest and entered the commercial construction market, working for General Contractors and Trade Partners as an MEP coordinator; he also obtained his Professional Engineering license for the State of Oregon. As building commissioning became a more important aspect of his projects, Josh decided to pursue that phase of work as his primary focus. Acting as the Commissioning Manager for one of the larger full Mechanical Contractors in Portland, he has successfully commissioned many types of facilities, from Mission Critical, to hospitals, hotels and schools. In 2018, he decided to break out on his own as a consultant to offer his services based on his wide range of experience.
