Job description
You will work within the Mechanical Engineering department of a yacht-building yard in the Den Bosch area, the Netherlands. The department is responsible for the complete technical design of the yacht, working closely with shipbuilding engineering, interior engineering, work preparation, and production.
The engineering office is located close to the production halls, so you stay 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 yacht. The environment is open, practical, and technically driven, with a strong focus on craftsmanship, quality, and well-considered engineering decisions.
Your challenge is to turn complex mechanical systems into accurate drawings and layouts that production can rely on. You work on the systems that are often hidden from view, but essential to the performance and comfort of the yacht: 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.
