• Bilingual (English and Spanish) strongly preferred to support communication with diverse teams and clients.
• Basic understanding of construction practices and standards; knowledge of building codes a plus.
• Familiarity with project management software (Buildertrend or similar) is helpful but not required.
• Strong organizational, time management, and communication skills.
• Problem-solving mindset and willingness to learn in a fast-paced environment.
• Ability to work collaboratively with supervisors and team members.
