Manage your time and assigned tasks across multiple projects—delivering on both schedule and budget.
Act as a bridge between the field and office teams, flagging issues or solutions as they arise.
Stay on top of documentation and time reporting, and ensure your assigned work follows company and project safety practices.
Support internal development efforts by participating in group learning, onboarding activities, and safety training.
WHAT YOU BRING:
A technical associate’s degree or 2–5 years of relevant experience in building systems or automation (a four-year degree in mechanical or electrical engineering is a plus).
A strong mechanical mindset and an understanding of how building controls work.
Familiarity with key tools and programs such as AutoCAD, Visio, and MS Office.
Ability to read blueprints and wiring diagrams with confidence.
Comfortable juggling multiple priorities while maintaining quality and organization.
