  • Lead technical reviews for chronic or systemic issues, provide engineered solutions, and follow through with Central Maintenance and Plant O&M to completion.
  • Support Operations on MI SIS actions to reduce overdue MI SIS activities.
  • Support plant control system and field instrument functional and serviceability succession planning for obsolete or legacy systems; develop and lead reviews with Operations on technical risk consequences and recommendations.
