Familiarity with CAD software such as AutoCAD Electrical, Revit, or SolidWorks, and understanding of electrical codes and standards like NEC are commonly required. Attention to detail, communication, and problem-solving abilities are key soft skills for effective collaboration and accurate documentation. These skills ensure precise, code-compliant electrical designs that support project success and seamless teamwork with engineers and construction teams.
