• Utilize advanced analytical tools—including geospatial modeling, imagery processing, and AI‑based evaluation techniques—to assess asset conditions, identify risks, and recommend targeted improvements.
 
• Participate in outage causal analysis and system performance reviews to identify reliability trends, optimize maintenance approaches, and reduce operational risk.
