A core component of this role is producing and managing project-related documentation. The interpreter will be responsible for preparing and maintaining project progress reports, daily work logs, material lists, and internal memos using Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint.

The role also includes translating technical documents, equipment manuals, emails, and contract-related materials between Korean and English.
