Maintaining up-to-date technical documentation for all supported products and changes made. Gaining deep understanding of the operation and usage of legacy products to ensure reliable ongoing support. Managing release planning and issue tracking for sustaining updates and coordinating support from the wider software team when specialist expertise is required. Keeping accurate records of design changes, version history, and known issues. Providing leadership on sustaining projects where appropriate, including guiding and mentoring other engineers involved in support activities. Supporting the company's Quality Policy and maintaining compliance with internal processes and standards.
