• Quality & Safety: Adhere strictly to all safety protocols, industry best practices, and company quality standards. Complete all work to the highest level of craftsmanship.
• Technical Reporting: Maintain accurate and timely records of work performed, including diagnostic findings, parts used, and hours worked.
