  • Background in mixed use, healthcare/Life Science, TI and commercial construction, or renovations (highly preferred)
  • Hands-on field experience (e.g., Assistant Superintendent, Project Engineer, or PM with estimating exposure)
  • Strong conceptual understanding of how construction components fit together
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (preferred but not mandatory with equivalent experience)
  • Collaborative, approachable, and adaptable personality, able to mentor, train, and work seamlessly with others
