  • Lead the integration of content from various sources—including OEM manuals, Logistics Support Analysis Records (LSAR), and existing S1000D documentation—to produce cohesive and accurate publications.
  • Ensure all technical manuals meet quality standards, are logically structured, and align with customer requirements and applicable specifications.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure documentation reflects the most up-to-date and approved system and equipment configurations.
  • Contribute to a high-performing team environment, meeting project milestones and deadlines while adhering to departmental procedures and quality processes.
