Team Leadership & Task Assignment: Direct daily execution, crew task assignments, and shift scheduling in strict alignment with the rules of engagement outlined in the SATP Floor Ops Strategy. Lead morning daily syncs and oversee vendor partnerships
-
Test Readiness: Conduct pre-test walkdowns, verify Bills of Materials (BOMs), ensure tools/materials are staged, and coordinate schedule execution with Test Implementation Engineers
-
Quality & Issue Resolution: Manage and document Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), troubleshoot test anomalies, and interface directly with Responsible Engineers (REs) to resolve technical roadblocks
-
Safety Enforcement: Ensure strict adherence to EHS safety protocols, including LOTO (Lockout/Tagout), exclusion zone management, high voltage, and cryogenic safety standards
-
Personnel Development: Serve as a mentor to support technicians, helping build an internal succession pipeline for future technical leads
-
Electrical and I&C: High-voltage setups, Paschen testing, loop checks, electrical diagnostics,
and instrument verification -
Fiber Optics: Handling, routing, splicing, and testing of thousands of optical fibers (includingtaking attenuation, insertion loss, and spectral analysis measurements using OTDR, OSA, etc.)
Domain Oversight (You will manage execution across these areas):
