• Assist with quality/inspection documentation and logistics planning.

• Resilient, steady, and reliable—someone who can handle pressure and keep moving.
• Engineering degree preferred (civil, structural, mechanical, industrial), but not required.
• Strong communication skills and a willingness to learn and take direction.
