Job Description

Are you ready to embark on a career that contributes to creating a safer and more sustainable world? Fugro's Technical Department of Fleet Services is seeking a dedicated Maintenance and Reliability Engineer with a strong marine technical background to join our team in Leidschendam, the Netherlands.

You will be immediately involved in key projects, primarily focusing on the conversion of two vessels, Voyager and Scout, starting in January 2025.

Your insights will guide us in adopting best maintenance practices and selecting the right equipment, as we are at the forefront of important transitions, including the conversion of our present and new Geotechnical vessels to incorporate hybrid battery installations, methanol-driven combustion engines and propulsion enhancements. You visit vessels to verify data when needed and foster close collaboration with Vessel Teams, both onboard and onshore, as well as collaborating with subject matter experts to define planned maintenance and condition monitoring.

• You ensure the timely delivery of a comprehensive planned maintenance and condition monitoring program for newly assigned assets;

• You uphold company standards by meticulously ensuring the vessel-specific data quality within the Planned Maintenance System.

Your track record

• A Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Marine Engineering and at least 2 years working experience in a similar role;

• Strong Technical background with knowledge of marine class rules and IMO requirements;
