  • Experience supporting testing, commissioning, and transition-to-service activities.
  • Experience managing customer tickets, internal support tickets, PCRs, defects, and technical change processes through to closure.
  • Experience coordinating with internal engineering teams, suppliers, and external stakeholders to resolve technical issues.
  • Strong communication, stakeholder management, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work independently and participate in an on-call support roster.
