  • 3+ years of project engineering, facilities engineering, maintenance engineering, construction, or utility systems experience.
  • Experience managing capital projects, facility upgrades, or infrastructure improvements.
  • Strong understanding of mechanical, electrical, utility, and building systems.
  • Experience coordinating contractors, vendors, and cross-functional teams.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
