- Coordinate with internal teams (engineering, safety, operations, project management) to align fieldwork with project objectives.
- Contribute to training sessions for test operators and field staff, providing feedback to improve performance and safety compliance.
- Prepare status updates, safety logs, and project documentation for management and regulatory review.
Requirements
