Experience coordinating engineering, manufacturing, and external stakeholders

Excellent communication skills with the ability to manage customer expectations and executive updates

Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple concurrent projects

Background supporting transformer manufacturing, electrical OEMs, EPC firms, or power infrastructure suppliers
