  • Elaborating N&T sub-system design specifications and ensuring alignment with best practices

  • Developing N&T sub-system Bill of Quantity (BoQ) and supporting installation managers

  • Maintaining close follow-up on technical gaps and ensuring consistency of external interfaces

  • Supervising system deliveries, including requirements, documentation, and performance

  • Supporting functional validation and managing sub-system configuration throughout the project lifecycle

  • Providing technical support for installation and commissioning activities

  • Ensuring all N&T designs adhere to quality processes and guidelines

  • Collaborating with other sub-system design leaders and project architects to ensure overall project performance
