• Write the test cases and site acceptance tests (SATs) that verify each change before and after field rollout, and set preventive maintenance intervals and wear-part life from field data.
• Maintain DFMEA for fielded products, support early-life stabilization at new sites, provide field reliability evidence for handover reviews, work directly with suppliers on part quality and corrective actions, set mechanical reliability standards across products, lead design reviews for sustaining changes, and mentor junior engineers.
