About the job

Apply for this job Do you want to work with customer-tailored mechanical solutions in complex maritime projects and have the opportunity to make your technical mark from the initial calculations to the final solution? We are looking for both a Senior Mechanical Engineer and a Mechanical Engineer for an international technical growth company where you will have responsibility, professional influence and close sparring with experienced colleagues.

About the company

You will become part of an international technical company in growth, delivering solutions to customers in marine and industrial sectors. The company is built on strong technical competencies and works closely with customers and partners across markets.

The business ranges from technical products and components to engineering, project deliveries and service. Common to the solutions is a focus on reliability, efficiency and on creating solutions that work in customers' specific applications and operating environments.

What do we offer?

You become part of an informal organization with a strong technical and cross-disciplinary environment, where you take responsibility for your own tasks and have the opportunity to follow the solutions from the initial technical clarifications to the final delivery.

You work closely with experienced colleagues across engineering, project management and other technical functions, and professional sparring and knowledge sharing are a natural part of daily life.

You will have the opportunity to develop professionally through complex, customer-tailored projects and gradually take on greater technical responsibility. For the senior profile, it also means a central role as a professional sparring partner and key person in the team.

Primary tasks

We are seeking both a Senior Mechanical Engineer and a Mechanical Engineer. In both roles you will work with customer-tailored mechanical solutions in complex technical projects. You follow tasks from the initial technical clarifications through design and documentation and onward to the final solution. Your primary tasks will include:

  • Design, dimension, and document mechanical systems and installations, including the propulsion line and related auxiliary systems.
  • Work on system integration and manage technical interfaces between the engine, gears, shaft system and other mechanical systems and components on board.
  • Carry out technical calculations, component selection and verification of solutions.
  • Produce and quality-assure drawings, specifications and other technical documentation.
  • Resolve technical issues in close collaboration with colleagues, customers, suppliers and other partners.
  • Contribute to development, standardization and ongoing improvement of technical solutions and working methods.

As a Senior Mechanical Engineer you will have greater independent technical responsibility and become a professional sparring partner for the team. You must be able to see the overall solution, make technical decisions and take ownership of more complex issues.

As a Mechanical Engineer you will be responsible for your own tasks and sub-projects, while having the opportunity to develop your broader system understanding through sparring with experienced colleagues.

Your qualifications

We are open to different technical backgrounds, but you as a starting point have a relevant education such as e.g. mechanical engineer, naval architect, or equivalent. It is a clear advantage if you come with experience from the marine industry , as understanding of ship installations, system integration and the particular requirements in maritime projects will make you quickly familiar with the tasks. We expect that you:

  • Have experience with design, sizing and documentation of mechanical systems and installations.
  • Have good systems understanding and be able to see the relationships between components, systems and installations.
  • Have experience with technical calculations, component selection and verification of solutions.
  • Work in a structured manner and take responsibility for own tasks.
  • Thrive in a cross-disciplinary environment and actively use sparring.
  • Communicate confidently in Danish and English.
  • Preferably have experience from marine, offshore or other heavy technical industries.
  • Preferably have knowledge of vibrations, structural noise, FEM/FEA or related areas.

For the role of Senior Mechanical Engineer we also expect that you have broad technical experience, can take ownership of complex issues and function naturally as a professional sparring partner for others. Typically you will have around 7-10 years of relevant experience.

For the role of Mechanical Engineer you may have fewer years of experience. Here we especially value a strong technical foundation, curiosity and potential to develop a broader system understanding over time.
