- Utilize CMMS to update work orders, PMs, asset data, and parts usage with high accuracy.
- Mentor Facilities Technician I in troubleshooting, best practices, and proper tool usage.
- Assist with vendor coordination by preparing work areas, escorting vendors, and verifying completion of vendor services.
- Use intermediate diagnostic tools including multimeters, infrared thermometers, manometers, and basic HVAC gauges.
