  • Communicates with internal team members and may support interactions with clients for data requests, site visits, and design clarifications.
  • Participates in site visits to support data collection, field verification, and design development.

  • Exposure to substation design, site development, or structural design is preferred.
  • Engineer-in-Training (EIT) certification preferred
