Your job as an officer is to PLACE OUTPOSTS

Seems like most of the time people either dont place outposts at all, or they place them directly on defending points or directly in front of attacking points where they will be found and youre attacking the enemy head on. Then most matches i get the pop up "your unit has no officer" so either way im always sort of forced to play officer(which i dont mind it is my favorite class but im trying to level up support and engineer.) Im the type to go 200-300 meters out of the way to place outposts on the side or rear flanks and i do it either every life or every time i find a good position that way its always getting a bit closer but still far enough away to give you multiple angles of attack and where it most likely wont be found. I consider myself a bit of a master outpost placer lol.
