Provide data-driven field support Diagnose elusive startup, commissioning, and controls problems for technicians through root-cause-based recommendations that feed back into design libraries to improve the product. Serve as the technical reference for customers Translate application questions into concise recommendations and solutions and document in formal engineering notes. Follow standard protocols and proven design protocols to ensure consistent high-quality products that meet or exceed customer requirements. Assemble, index, and track all drawings, studies, and data sheets through the approval cycle; document every revision for full traceability. Deliver dimensioned one-lines, BOMs, and labor take-offs to the Sales team so quotes reflect real scope, margin, and risk.
