• Demonstrated ability to manage projects, coordinate multidisciplinary teams, and work directly with clients.
• Previous experience mentoring junior engineers or a genuine interest in coaching and developing others.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills with a client-focused approach.
• Ability to manage multiple projects while maintaining high-quality technical deliverables.
