• Maintaining antenna pointing, tracking, alignment, calibration of mechanical and control systems;
• Overseeing RF front-end/back-end maintenance: modems, up/downconverters, LNA/TWTA/SSPA, filters, waveguides, and associated hardware;
• Supporting link budget verification, signal quality monitoring, noise figure control, interference mitigation;
• Assisting with weather, environmental, and surface reflections effects impacting signal path (radome maintenance, protective surfaces).

Structural, Anchoring & Civil/Mechanical Systems:

• Inspecting and maintain antenna foundations, pedestals, radome structural integrity, anchoring systems;
• Supporting civil/structural works associated with site, including radomes, support towers, site drainage, buildings, shelters;
• Overseeing mechanical equipment: radome motors/hydraulic or pneumatic systems, radome seals.

Power, Environmental & Facility Systems:

• Managing prime power (diesel generators, fuel systems), backup power, UPS, battery systems;
• Maintaining HVAC, air handling, climate control, dehumidification, ventilation, fire suppression systems;
• Monitoring environmental conditions inside RF shelters/rooms (temperature, humidity) critical to RF performance.

Safety, Compliance & Regulatory:

• Ensuring site compliance with host nation electrical codes, HSE standards, safety policies (electrical, fire, hazardous substances);
• Maintaining grounding, lightning protection bonding per standards;
• Supporting audits, certifications, inspections, and ensure documentation is up to date.

Lifecycle, Obsolescence & Upgrade Support:

• Tracking equipment lifecycles and obsolescence risk (spare parts availability, vendor support);
• Assisting in preparing upgrade / replacement plans for aging or failing components;
• Supporting integration of new equipment or enhancements (e.g. filter upgrades, RF path improvements, mechanical improvements).

Operational Support & Incident Response:

• Providing fault diagnosis and corrective maintenance for station infrastructure and RF/SATCOM systems;
• Supporting 24/7 or emergency response as required (depending on severity);
• Liaising with operations, remote support, or central engineering for resolving issues beyond local scope.

Documentation, Reporting & Interface:

• Maintaining configuration control: keep technical baselines, drawings, as-built documentation up to date;
• Maintaining local logbooks, ITSM/Ticketing system entries, TT-Comms (or equivalent);
• Producing monthly engineering support reports with activities, faults, corrective and preventive maintenance, recommendations, risk assessments;
• Supporting the Principal Engineer with technical justifications, decision support, acceptance of delivered works, and briefing material.
