• Carrying out root cause analysis and fault diagnosis using structured methods
• Recording issues, solutions, lessons learned, and troubleshooting steps in a clear, concise, and rigorous way
• Collaborating with engineers, stakeholders, project teams, and customers to ensure reliable support and professional communication
• Supporting continuous improvement through post-incident reviews, knowledge sharing, and the definition of best practices
