Your Work Context

Our position as a world player is the result of our technical innovative know-how and the most modern dredging fleet in the world. Jan De Nul Group is continually investing in its fleet and its people. The Marine Design and Engineering Department is involved from the preliminary design onwards. Every project is different and every single time the optimal configuration is determined. And if it doesn’t exist, we design it ourselves!

For the expansion of the Marine Design and Engineering Department, we are currently looking for a Senior Marine Design Engineer .

Your main tasks and responsibilities are:

• Providing technical expertise for the design (calculations) of new vessels and for the conversion of existing vessels.
• Designing project-specific installations like cable laying equipment, steel, and offshore constructions.
• Leading project-specific calculations for hydrodynamics, motion analysis, lifting operations, sea transports, vessel mooring, etc.
• Preparing and reviewing technical specifications for other departments (purchase department, logistics department).
• Consultation with internal departments to determine design constraints (operating conditions, functionality, etc.)

What do you need?

You hold a master’s degree in engineering sciences with an option in Electromechanics/mechanics, shipbuilding, or naval architecture with a minimum of 10 years of relevant experience.

You have experience with calculation methods, software, and theoretical aspects that are applicable to the design of vessels and their installations; knowledge of hydrodynamic behavior of floating vessels is required.

Working at Jan De Nul means helping to find solutions to some of the biggest challenges of our time: from energy transition to rising sea levels to smart mobility. It means learning and working together every day, with the aim of ensuring the global quality of life for generations to come.

What do we offer you?
