  • BICSI-based implementation standards and cross-connect design
  • DCDC (Data Center Design Consultant) and/or RCDD (Registered Communications Distribution Designer) certification required or actively pursuing the certification.
  • Experience with tools such as Visio, Lucidchart, and quoting/estimation platforms
  • Background working in a systems integrator, VAR, or MSP
  • Familiarity with vendor ecosystems in networking, AV, security, and cloud infrastructure
  • Experience with structured cabling bill of materials (BoMs), take-offs, and cost estimation
  • Ability to create clear, detailed SOWs and level-of-effort (LOE) estimates
