• Analyse technical specifications, definition files and 2D/3D drawings.
• Liaise with expert teams (design offices, engineering, maintenance, manufacturers and operators).
• Produce the maintenance and operating technical documentation for rolling stock: maintenance manuals, illustrated parts catalogues (IPC), troubleshooting and diagnostic procedures, operating instructions.
• Ensure the quality control (technical content and form) of the deliverables produced.

• Review and edit existing documents to ensure accuracy, consistency and compliance with company standards and railway sector requirements.
• Manage comments and revisions from internal and external stakeholders, in Italian and English.

• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into simple, understandable terms.
• Knowledge of technical documentation standards such as DITA XML and S1000D would be an asset, as would knowledge of railway frameworks (e.g. EN 50126 / RAMS, or interoperability specifications).
