Dynamic Positioning Project Engineers

Our systems enable offshore wind farms and maritime autonomy, and we want your help! Are you excited about traveling the world and seeing the results of your work in action? Do you enjoy a lifestyle where you're always ready to go? 

We want to strengthen our team of project engineers working on Dynamic Positioning (DP) software deliveries. Your time will be divided between software tasks in the office and traveling to vessels worldwide. We're looking for engineers who are driven, independent and adaptable.
Dynamic positioning (DP) is a system that automatically maintains a vessel's position and heading by using its own propellers and thrusters. This allows operations at sea, where mooring and anchoring is not possible or desirable, and is a key technology enabling the transition to offshore wind energy.

You will be part of a tightly knit group that values collaboration very high. We think that you should look forward to coming into the office, and we actively work to build and maintain a culture that supports this. 

We encourage all candidates, including recent graduates, to apply early. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with start dates either by agreement or in August 2025.
