Support on-call, emergency response, incident resolution, business continuity, and service restoration activities as needed.
Build strong working relationships with customers, internal stakeholders, vendors, contractors, technicians, engineers, and operations leaders while setting expectations and verifying work quality.
Maintain a safe, clean, organized, labeled, and operationally ready facility in alignment with site procedures, safety requirements, security protocols, and compliance standards.
