• Strong critical thinking and independent troubleshooting ability under live/energized conditions
• Ability to read and interpret MV single-line diagrams, blueprints, sketches, and manufacturer manuals accurately
• Thorough understanding of OSHA guidelines, NFPA 70E, and arc flash safety requirements as they apply to medium voltage work
• Comfortable with MS Office (Excel, Word, Outlook) for reporting and PM documentation
