Familiarity with NEC, NFPA, IBC, and related standards is required, along with the ability to interpret and apply updates as they are issued.

Strong analytical skills are necessary for load calculations, short-circuit analysis, emergency power systems, and lighting design, including controls and energy efficiency strategies. Experience with low-voltage systems such as data networks, security, and nurse call systems is expected. Candidates should also be comfortable using Microsoft Office for documentation and calculations.
