  • Detail-oriented, adaptable, and energized by hands-on work.
  • Compliant with all aspects of company travel policy.
  • Valid driver's license and good driving record required.
  • Up to 80% travel, including overnight travel.
  • Ability to lift up to 50 pounds, climb ladders, and stand or walk for extended periods.
