  • Apply structured methodologies (e.g., 5-Whys, Fishbone) to identify root causes.
  • Author and maintain Gold Standard RCA reports and troubleshooting guides.
  • Promote rigorous documentation and data-driven problem solving.
  • Create reusable diagnostic frameworks to automate identification of known software issues.

Qualifications
