- Client Facing: Ability to manage "customer-driven" projects where high levels of communication are required.
- Multi-Tasking: Proven ability to manage a portfolio of multiple smaller projects simultaneously at different stages of the lifecycle.
- Soft Skills: Self-motivated with a "boots-on-the-ground" mentality; comfortable working with both field technicians and executive leadership.
- Technical Tools: Proficiency in MS Office (Project/Excel). Experience with AutoCAD or hydraulic modeling (e.g., ProMax, Synergi) is a plus.
- Travel: Ability to travel approximately 25-50% to project sites for kick-offs, tie-ins, construction oversight, commissioning, etc.
Benefits: This position is located in Austin, Texas and is an in-office position. Selected candidate is eligible for employer matched 401(k), medical, dental, vision, basic life and AD&D insurances and other benefit offerings.
