• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft Teams.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Strong problem-solving and time-management abilities.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team.
• Ability to travel periodically for project site visits.

Bonus experience:

Lighting software such as AGI or Visual Lighting, medium/high-voltage systems, low-voltage design, and federal projects.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This firm has intentionally built a culture where talented engineers can do challenging work without sacrificing their quality of life.

Employees describe the environment as feeling like working with a close-knit group of friends while still having the resources, benefits, and opportunities of a larger engineering firm.

You’ll find:

• A collaborative, team-oriented environment
• Flexible PTO and family-friendly policies
• A strong focus on work-life balance
• Individualized professional and technical development
• Opportunities to learn, grow, and take on new challenges
• A multidisciplinary team environment
• Opportunities to work on meaningful and technically diverse projects
• A culture that encourages employees to contribute ideas and develop their careers
• Comprehensive benefits and long-term career opportunities
