Additionally, you'll be responsible for streamlining work orders to enhance efficiency in maintaining uptime and assisting in logistical operations to ensure smooth execution of testing plans. As a proactive member of the team, you'll spearhead the development of innovative solutions to improve fleet uptime and continuously drive improvements in team processes. Regular participation in project meetings will keep you aligned with ongoing developments and ensure effective coordination with other stakeholders. You're entrusted with the authority to safeguard and maximize uptime throughout the fleet.
