Jouw uitdaging
As a Senior Plans and Arrangements Engineer (interim), you will join an experienced Plans & Arrangements (P&A) team working on the basic engineering of high-end naval vessels. Your focus will be on independently developing statutory ship plans, translating vessel specifications, customer requirements, and applicable regulations into accurate 2D and 3D technical documentation.
You will work on essential documents such as the General Arrangement Plan, Fire Safety Plan, and Watertight Integrity Plan, ensuring their compliance with relevant standards and securing approval from classification societies and clients. These plans form the foundation for other engineering disciplines, making your contribution essential to the overall ship design process.
Working closely with engineers from different disciplines, you will resolve technical challenges, coordinate design inputs, and contribute to the continuous improvement of the department. The position focuses specifically on statutory plans within basic engineering, rather than detailed outfitting arrangements or production drawings.
