  • A high degree of accuracy and attention to detail 
  • Flexibility and a knack for troubleshooting and problem solving 
  • A willingness to travel up to 10-15% for industry shows, customer visits, etc.  
  • Strong initiative and a desire to build a career in an exciting field  

Bonus points if you have:
