  • Strong interpersonal skills to effectively coordinate with field personnel, control room operators, landowners, and stakeholders, working well both independently and as part of a team.
  • High level of accuracy in managing operational documentation, pipeline inspection records, and regulatory-driven compliance logs.
  • Ability to perform medium physical work - including lifting up to 75 pounds - and the agility to climb, kneel, crouch, or reach for extended periods while working on field equipment.
