• Working knowledge of industry standards and agency approvals (e.g., UL).
• Familiarity with battery systems, especially in motive power applications.
• Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Clear and effective communication skills, both written and verbal.

What Sets You Apart:
