* provide ongoing technical support during the production and installation phases, including reviewing site photos, installation issues, or damage reports to identify faults and specify correct repair or replacement solutions
* serve as a technical advisor to the sales and customer care teams, helping to resolve post-installation issues and ensure a high-quality client experience
Requirements
