    • Established expertise in a variety of electrical engineering applications (e.g., failure/damage investigation; non-destructive evaluation and instrumentation; analysis and design for repair and troubleshooting of existing systems; design of new systems; and/or litigation support)
    • Effective technical, graphical, written, and verbal communication skills with the ability to interface with internal and external clients
    • Ability to prioritize tasks and adapt to changing demands, while maintaining a high standard of excellence, integrity, and attention to detail
