• RFQ & Vendor Technical Alignment: Translate project requirements into RFQs for global OEMs and review their technical proposals for compliance with international codes (API, ASME, IEC, IEEE, ISO, ATEX).
• OEM Technical Coordination: Discuss specifications directly with tier‑1 global manufacturers (e.g., Emerson, Fisher, Flowserve, ABB, Siemens, Honeywell, Yokogawa, KSB).
• Office-Based Project Sourcing: Drive the technical buying cycle from inquiry review to final client proposal delivery with the support of our internal commercial team.

Office Time: 3pm - 12midnight
