• Advanced analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Experience working with data analysis and reporting tools, including Microsoft Excel and Power BI.

• Knowledge of preventive and predictive maintenance strategies.

At our organization, your work directly impacts operational success. You'll have the opportunity to:

✅ Influence key business decisions through data-driven insights.
