• Coordinate multidisciplinary teams (mechanical, electrical, automation, process).
• Conduct sampling, measurements, and performance validation with the customer.
• Prepare commissioning reports, test records, and final documentation.

• Customer Training & Handover

• Train operators and maintenance teams on safe operation, adjustments, and best practices.
• Support the project manager during mechanical and commissioning acceptance.
• Contribute to project close‑out and lessons learned (REX).
