• The capability to work independently or lead a team in high-pressure, site-based environments.

• An understanding of PLC systems and standard diagnostic software tools.

• An expertise in electrical engineering, power electronics, or mechatronics.

• A keen interest in continuous professional development and contributing to the success of a growing energy team.
