  4. Develop and maintain terminology databases and style guides for German markets, ensuring standardization of language assets.
  5. Adapt source content for target markets, considering regional product availability, cultural sensitivities, and local business practices.
  6. Engage with corporate and partner teams in-country to understand and address localization issues.
  7. Manage routine escalations as needed.
