- Proficiency with required test equipment (e.g., OTDRs, Ethernet testers, multi-meters).
- Strong ability to interpret technical drawings (electrical schematics, comms layouts, or fibre splice diagrams).
- Demonstrated knowledge of compliance, safety, and operational protocols in high-risk environments (rail, industrial, or infrastructure).
