Are you a hands-on engineer with a passion for high-end yacht building? In this role, you’ll work on custom mechanical systems and exterior outfitting elements that make each vessel unique.

At our client, the discipline Special Engineering and Exterior Engineering covers two closely linked but distinct areas:

• Special Engineering focuses on custom-built, often movable systems that make each yacht unique. This includes elements such as telescopic masts, boarding equipment, shell doors, tender cranes, and folding platforms, all tailor-engineered for functionality and design integration.
• Exterior Engineering relates to the visible and structural outfitting on the outside of the yacht, such as railings, stairs, bollards, lighting, nameplates, flagpoles, and deck furniture. It requires coordination with design, interior, and outfitting teams to ensure seamless integration and aesthetic perfection.

Together, these disciplines ensure that the yacht’s exterior is both functional and iconic.

As a Engineer, you design and model special and exterior systems from folding stairs and boarding equipment to railings and deck features.

• Develop detailed 3D models and drawings for custom-built components
• Ensure designs meet class, flag, and internal standards
• Review manufacturability, tolerances, and onboard integration
• Coordinate with senior engineers, suppliers, and production teams
• Solve technical issues and contribute to high-quality project execution

• BSc degree in Mechanical Engineering, Yacht Engineering, or similar
• 2+ years of experience in yacht or shipbuilding engineering
• Proficiency in 3D AutoCAD; Siemens NX, Teamcenter, and/or Cadmatic preferred
• Understanding of hull construction and exterior outfitting
• Precise, proactive, and quality-focused
• Fluent in English

Our client is a globally respected name in luxury yacht building. Their mission: to craft superyachts that set new standards in innovation, design, and finish. You’ll work with passionate professionals on the most prestigious maritime projects of our time.

• Salary up to €69.000 per year
• 38 paid leave days, bonus scheme, and training opportunities
• Dynamic team and complex engineering challenges
