  • Independent Work: Ability to independently manage assigned technical work, prioritize multiple projects, meet deadlines, and deliver high-quality work with appropriate direction and support.
  • Communication: Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly communicate technical and regulatory concepts to clients, colleagues, and non-technical audiences.
  • Client Interaction: Ability to establish and maintain effective professional relationships with clients and represent NV5 Dade Moeller in a professional and credible manner.
  • Technology: Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, as well as collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams and Webex.
