• Ability to interpret construction plans and specifications and effectively manage project costs, schedules, quality, and documentation.
• Experience with public infrastructure, housing rehabilitation or reconstruction, federally funded construction, or disaster recovery projects.
• Familiarity with government consulting engagements or other regulated, deadline-driven project environments.
• Strong communication, coordination, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and produce accurate, well-organized deliverables.
