- Demonstrated experience leading and developing project teams.
- Bachelor's degree in Aviation, Engineering, Construction Management, Business, or related field.
- Experience with tools such as Primavera, SharePoint, Prolog, Smartsheet, or similar platforms.
Direct experience with SFO or another major international airport is highly preferred.
