Josh’s History at EAB
Josh began his career 22 years ago at EAB as a part-time Technician in Training during the summer. He had prior experience in general construction, which added value to his service. He has earned many promotions over the years and served in a variety of roles, including as the Dallas Safety Manager.
In 2017, Josh was certified as a Test and Balance Engineer (TBE) by the Associated Air Balance Council (AABC) and was promoted to Project Manager.
Josh continues to serve EAB with excellence as Project Manager in the Dallas office. His long and impressive career includes a 10+ year relationship with The University of Texas at Dallas.
“My favorite thing about working for EAB are the people. I grew up with three of our other employees (we all met at church as kids) and have formed long lasting relationships with many others. EAB is staffed by smart, hardworking, independently motivated, good people.” – Josh Avera, TBE
Milestone Projects
DFW Airport Terminal D in 2005 was the first major project Josh worked on. It was such a large-scale project that required half of the Dallas personnel full-time for over a year. Josh began the project as a “helper” and finished as a Team Lead.
2008 was a busy year for Josh. He completed his largest project to date, Lonestar High School in Frisco, Texas, and the Material Science and Engineering Research Laboratory at The University of Texas at Dallas. This project uncovered his interest in the challenging arena of HVAC controls and applications in laboratories.
From 2017-2019, he led the project for Toyota’s state-of-the-art North American Headquarters in Plano, TX. This project presented many challenges or “opportunities for growth”, as Glenn Varner calls them. It included over a dozen buildings going up on an accelerated schedule which honed Josh’s skills in organizing and scheduling long-term projects.

More About Josh
Which of these core values (Integrity, Quality, Consistency, and Teamwork) do you most identify with, and what does it mean to you?
Quality is my favorite core value, to me this is what our long-term customers look for. I have had the good fortune to work on the same campuses for years. The quality and long-term effect of our work is what they appreciate the most.
What is your ideal room temperature, and why?
71 to 73 degrees because you do not become chilled at rest or hot when moving around. It generates less temperature complaints.
What do you like to do on your days off?
I enjoy woodworking. I have crafted several of the pieces of furniture in my house.
