- Overseeing commissioning activities — from dry runs to client-witnessed ATPs.
- Managing redline drawings, documentation, client signoffs, and daily site reports.
- Collaborating closely with engineering teams and installation suppliers to make sure the final product meets our and client expectations.

Qualifications
