Willingness to travel 70%+ (projects located at customer sites nationwide)
Valid driver’s license and ability to pass driver health screening
Strong leadership and communication skills
High attention to detail and organizational ability
Comfortable using technology and Microsoft Office tools in the field
Why This Role Stands Out
Competitive $95K target base compensation
