Knowledge: Applicable codes, client/utility requirements, constructability, quality controls, and multidisciplinary interfaces at a depth appropriate to the level.

Technical Skills / Software

Core tools: AutoCAD; Microsoft Excel; ETAP or comparable electrical-analysis tools where assigned; OEM sizing/configuration tools; document-management and approved calculation tools.

Expected proficiency: Sufficient technical depth to govern tool selection, review strategy, capability development, and risk-based oversight; routine hands-on production is not the primary measure of performance.
