  • Strong knowledge of water and wastewater treatment technologies, regulatory requirements, and treatment processes, including membrane systems, biological treatment, nutrient removal, and industrial water applications.
  • Proficiency in data analytics, process modeling, statistical analysis, and performance monitoring using tools such as Power BI, Tableau, SQL, and Excel; experience with advanced process control, predictive analytics, or machine learning is a plus.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze operational data, troubleshoot complex process issues, and implement process improvements that enhance performance, reliability, compliance, and efficiency.
  • Experience supporting multiple facilities, remote operations centers, or centralized monitoring programs while effectively managing competing priorities.
  • Strong analytical, decision-making, communication, and collaboration skills, with a customer-focused and continuous improvement mindset.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite.
