Oversee quality control processes, including first-of-kind inspections and installation validation.
Drive issue identification, troubleshooting, remediation, and formal closure across all commissioning phases.
Facilitate cross-functional collaboration between construction, engineering, controls, and operations teams.
Support the transition to operations by providing technical guidance, training coordination, and post-handover support.
Enforce safety, compliance, and regulatory requirements across all commissioning activities.

Requirements
