• Apply a deep understanding of transmission architecture, component function and driveline systems.
• Install instrumentation, sensors and bespoke modifications on test units as directed by engineering.
• Identify, raise and report build concerns; support engineering with structured problem-solving (including 8D).
• Follow all part-picking, kitting, storage and inventory processes.
• Maintain a safe, well-organised, prototype-standard workshop environment.
