• Strong technical- and report-writing skills, including native-equivalent proficiency in English.

• Competent in basic electrical-power design, including preparing preliminary electrical-load schedules and conceptual single-line diagrams for 480V 800-2500A compressor-drive schemes.

• Able to occasionally prepare or modify drawings in Revit and/or AutoCAD, though Designer is primarily responsible for preparing drawings.

• Lead QC efforts to verify design documents meet project requirements and are free of errors.

• Research equipment and materials as needed to fulfil client and project requirements.

• Work with architectural, electrical, structural, civil, and other design disciplines in the coordination of facility designs.

• Represent the fuel-design team at inter-discipline-design meetings, including virtual and in-person meetings.

• Review submittals against specifications and design drawings. Assist with collecting data and

• Perform calculations to analyze and design fueling-infrastructure subsystems using company-standard software, practice-area templates or worksheets and proprietary manufacturer software.
