• Bring 2+ years of experience as a Project Engineer, Field Engineer, or APM (preferred)

• Can read and interpret drawings and specifications

• Are familiar with scheduling tools and Microsoft Office

• Have strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills

Thorough - details matter. You don't hand something off or close it out until it's done right.

Respectful - you treat the owner, the sub, the laborer, and everyone in between with respect. It's not situational here-it's the standard.
