  • Physical agility to climb ladders, kneel, crouch down, and reach on a repetitive basis throughout the day.
  • Ability to travel to project sites up to 70+ miles away.
  • Willingness to work in various (sometimes extreme) climate conditions.
  • Proficient in using electrical and manual equipment and measurement tools (powered saws, hammers, builders' level, theodolite, etc.).
  • Demonstrated ability to proactively resolve construction issues.
  • Demonstrated ability to read and understand basic blueprints, specifications, and construction documents.
  • Demonstrated integrity and ethical standards.
  • Basic computer and math skills.
  • Demonstrated high attention to detail.
