Ship commissioning engineer

What will you do?

Do you enjoy working on technology where everything comes together?

As a Ship Commissioning Engineer, you are responsible for the final – and perhaps most important – phase of the construction process. You ensure that all on-board systems are functioning correctly before the ship is handed over. From the initial start-up to the sea trials: you bring the ship to life.

Your responsibilities will include, amongst other things:

  • Filling, pressurising and preparing engines for commissioning
  • Setting up systems using technical drawings and diagrams
  • Commissioning of engines and systems in collaboration with suppliers
  • Commissioning of masts, wheelhouses and other technical systems
  • Check that all systems are communicating correctly with one another
  • Measuring and monitoring values such as pressure, temperature and settings
  • Identifying and resolving technical issues in collaboration with suppliers and the engineering team
  • Accompanying the vessel during sea trials to test the systems under load

You ensure that all the individual parts ultimately come together to form a single, fully functional whole.

What do you get?

  • Salary between €4,253 and €5,080 gross per month
  • 38 days off per year
  • 7% profit-sharing
  • Working on impressive inland waterway vessels and river cruise ships
  • A great deal of responsibility and freedom in your role
  • Collaborating with suppliers, engineering and production
  • A stable organisation with a strong position within the shipbuilding industry
  • Working on unique projects that you can actually see sailing
