• Supporting RFP and RFI responses, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and competitiveness
• Reviewing and validating system configurations, technical documentation, and contract exhibits against engineering and commercial objectives
• Contributing to the development and improvement of internal tools, workflows, and technical documentation to support scalable growth
• Participating in customer meetings, presentations, and conferences as a senior technical representative of the business
