• Prior experience working within Life Sciences, Biotech, or Pharmaceutical environments.

• Comprehensive knowledge of critical building infrastructure, including pharmaceutical-grade HVAC systems, steam and heating hot water generation, emergency power systems (generators and UPS >5kVA), compressed air/vacuum systems, and chemical/gas distribution.
