n
- Ability to scrutinise protocol wording and software‑generated results; diagnose discrepancies; and explain the technical basis for validity, scoring and conclusions.
n
- Strong fault‑finding skills across vehicle systems, test equipment, communications and data processing, with a practical track record of resolving problems.
n

Professional capability and behaviours nn
- High attention to detail, disciplined documentation and a strong safety mindset.
n
- Clear spoken and written English, effective client communication and constructive teamwork across different cultures and levels of technical maturity.
n
- Flexibility, a can‑do attitude and resilience when requirements, equipment performance or weather conditions change; willingness to take ownership through to resolution.
n
