• Strong troubleshooting skills and ability to work independently in outdoor conditions.


• Good teamwork, interpersonal, and communication skills — organized, professional, and customer-oriented.


• Experience working with ticketing systems for task assignment and reporting back.


• Living in the Merced area, with willingness to travel during certain seasons.
