Jamy Bacchus

Jamy Bacchus started in the industry in 1995 and in 2016 he joined ME Engineers as a mechanical engineer, energy modeler and sustainability consultant.

For Jamy, all the parts need to fit together. Whether it’s adapting older technologies to fit updated LEED standards or working with clients like the groups behind Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena to bring energy efficiency and groundbreaking ideas together, Jamy believes that all parts are interlocking parts when they are put together right.

It’s the kind of thinking that draws him into the Lego aisle to see the latest sets of interlocking bricks and even inspired him to send his resume to Lego’s Denmark headquarters 30 years ago. “They wanted to send me to Carlsbad to work on rides,” he laments, but he never lost the Lego ideal that many small pieces can fit together and work together when they do.

Jamy began his career serving as a lead mechanical engineer for commercial buildings for over 12 years. From there he spent another decade providing sustainability consulting, energy modeling, EPC and energy auditing, and helped to develop energy policy at the state and federal levels. Jamy frequently presents and publishes at industry conferences and, as the LEED EA TAG chair, spearheaded a number of key developments of the newest draft of LEED, v5.

For Jamy, ME Engineers allows him to bring together his curiosity about systems, his passion for the environment and the opportunities to work with new and different people with new and different ideas. All of those parts fit together when they come together.
