  • 5-7 years of hands-on engineering experience in a heavy industrial or manufacturing environment.
  • Proven success managing capital projects from start to finish.
  • Working knowledge of environmental compliance and reporting requirements.
  • Strong analytical, communication, and organizational skills.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (especially Word and Excel).

  • Valid driver's license and ability to travel as needed.
  • The Bottom Line
