  • Maintain accurate and compliant documentation for all equipment-related activities, support audits, inspections, and internal reviews.
  • Support development of equipment maintenance strategies to minimize downtime and increase overall equipment reliability.
  • Support investigations as SME in NCR’s and CAPA’s as needed.
