• Proficiency in DOB processes, third-party inspections, MEP testing and commissioning, and multi-trade coordination in existing occupied buildings
• Familiarity with Procore, PlanGrid, or similar field management tools
• Experience managing tenant-in-place MEP work, building access coordination, resident notifications, and controlled shutdowns
