    • For the preferred profile, eight or more years of industry experience, including at least five years in critical infrastructure settings such as data centers, laboratories, or hospitals.<\/li>\n
    • Preferred experience gathering customer or product requirements for data center build projects.<\/li>\n
    • Strong ability to stay organized, juggle multiple priorities, and manage time effectively, with close attention to detail.<\/li>\n
    • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.<\/li>\n
    • A problem-solving style that is grounded in data, plus the ability to handle financial considerations in complex work.<\/li>\n
