You'll work closely with senior team members on larger deployments while owning the reliability and performance of the systems in your area of responsibility.

• Create and maintain technical documentation, as-builts, wiring diagrams, and standard operating procedures.


• Maintain accurate device inventory and hardware/spares stock for supported sites.


• Communicate clearly with internal stakeholders, providing updates on project progress, system issues, and resolutions.


• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, which requires regular interaction with production and manufacturing stakeholders and frequently working directly on the production floor.
