In this role, you will translate complex mechanical systems into accurate drawings and layouts that production teams can rely on. Your work supports the build of technically advanced yachts where quality, detail, and practical engineering decisions matter every day. You will work at an engineering office located close to the production halls, allowing you to stay closely connected to the build process.
You can check details on the shop floor, see how your drawings are used in practice, and receive direct feedback from the teams building the yachts. The environment is open, practical, and technically driven, with a strong focus on craftsmanship, quality, and well-considered engineering decisions.
You will work within the Piping Engineering department, which is responsible for the technical design of yacht piping and works closely with shipbuilding engineering, interior engineering, work preparation, and production. You will focus on systems that are often hidden from view but essential to the performance and comfort of the yacht. These include ventilation, heating, hydraulics, sanitary systems, pipework, routing, and technical spaces.
Every yacht is unique, which means each project brings new interfaces, space constraints, and custom technical solutions.
What you do
- Design mechanical layouts and technical systems for high-end custom yachts.
- Prepare pipework drawings, piping schematics, and routing plans based on the engineering design plan.
- Detail panels, components, and technical spaces with attention to fit, access, integration, and production feasibility.
- Coordinate with the project lead, work preparation, and production teams to keep drawings aligned with planning and build requirements.
- Use CADMATIC Piping and specialist 2D and 3D drawing software to create clear, accurate, and traceable engineering output.
- Review practical feedback from the yard and translate it into improved drawings and technical solutions.
- Support the engineering process from initial drawing work through to handover to the crew.
What they ask
- Bachelor’s degree in Marine Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Naval Architecture, or a similar technical field.
- Good knowledge of CADMATIC Piping.
- Experience with mechanical systems, piping, routing, technical layouts, or production drawings.
- Good command of English, both spoken and written.
- Structured, accurate, and independent way of working.
- Ability to work according to planning and communicate clearly with engineering and production colleagues.
- Experience in yacht building, shipbuilding, or another complex technical production environment.
- Familiarity with onboard systems, technical spaces, or mechanical integration.
- Interest in custom engineering, advanced yacht technology, and practical problem-solving.
