A unique maritime adventure

Your role in the story

New ideas pop up continuously inside and out. As a Development Engineer you will test and shape these ideas, understanding how they fit with our offshore reality. You help mature an idea through fast-paced cycles, tapping into the technical knowledge within the company and collaborating with external parties. Sometimes this leads to a million-dollar concept, other times to a patent, a publication and unfortunately sometimes the discovery of a showstopper. Your daily activities and responsibilities are very diverse and you are free to organize yourself within your team. Can you see yourself involved in the following activities?

• Engaging in development projects in and outside of your core technical expertise, at any level of readiness. Would you like to be involved in the conceptualization of a new vessel for the installation of new generation wind park offshore substations in the North Sea?
• Learning about new technologies within a certain topic and collaborating with external partners, suppliers, research institutions and even competitors to leverage expertise and drive innovation. You could for instance be owner of a topic like machine automation, driving projects like crane automation and next generation dynamic positioning; the options are endless!

Who will you work with?

You will work closely with a diverse group of experts from many nationalities and all departments such as the Heerema Simulation Centre, Marine-, Structural-, Equipment-, Commercial- & Operations Department. In the morning you might be discussing the technical details of steel with a colleague from the structural department, at noon the execution schedule with a project manager and in the afternoon brainstorming for new thesis topics for floating wind installation methods with old friends at the TUDelft or MARIN.

Is this the job for you?

You enjoy your endeavors, both in a personal and professional setting. You can visualize the end result for an incipient idea and the steps necessary to reach your goal. You believe in vision and that anything is possible. You have affinity to deal with complex technical subjects, can identify knowledge gaps, and will strive to dive into solving the challenge, but won't lose yourself in the details. You can communicate efficiently to a broad audience, both technical or non-technical, with a clear goal in mind. You strive for excellence and get excited when hearing the words challenge and novelty .

Next to this you have:

• A Master degree in Naval Architecture, Offshore, Subsea, Civil or Marine Engineering
• At least 5+ years relevant experience in Naval design and offshore industry
• Excellent command of the English language, both spoken and written. Good command of the Dutch language is a plus
• A critical mindset, and you are intrinsically motivated to continuous, tangible development;
• A collaborative spirit, a sense of humor, and a strong work ethic with a "get it done" approach;
