  • Basic computer skills, including comfort with mobile apps or inventory/dispatch systems
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy when pulling, staging, and delivering parts
  • Good organizational and time management skills with the ability to manage a fast-moving, changing day

WHO YOU ARE:
