  • Must also possess strong project management, communication, interpersonal, and team leadership and organization skills, the ability to work closely with other team members to meet objectives and deadlines.

Desired Qualifications:
  • The ideal candidate will have strong business skills combined with in-depth knowledge of industrial batteries, AC-DC rectifiers, DC-AC inverters, and AC-AC voltage regulators.
  • Knowledge of applicable electrical codes, standards, and regulations (NEC, UL).
  • Knowledge of electrical applications for high and low voltage electrical systems.
  • Demonstrated ability and willingness to use AI tools to improve productivity, decision-making, work quality, and to reduce costs. The successful candidate must be able to identify appropriate AI use cases and critically evaluate AI-generated outputs.

What's in It for You:
  • Competitive compensation, holiday pay, and paid time off
  • Great benefits package that includes health, vision, and dental insurance
