Candidate must have demonstrated the following characteristics:
  • Interface well with customers, professional service staff and other non-technical members of organizations
  • Excellent interpersonal, oral, and written communications skills. 
  • Demonstrate strong analytical and problem solving skills
  • Have aptitude for learning new technologies
