Your impact
As a hydrodynamic engineer, you will focus with the team, on the interaction between ship and waves to determine workability. You study the behaviour of ships based on RAOs and translate the complex results into clear, unambiguous overviews for internal and external customers to provide insight into the workability of ships in different wave climates.
You work closely with the tender department, project teams and maintain contact with the ship's crew before and during implementation. In this community knowledge is shared and experiences are exchanged. You will also provide innovative solutions where we as a team and Van Oord become even better at our jobs! Furthermore, you will be involved in:
- Involved in the design and installation aspects of international projects from tender phase to execution;
- Development of safe, efficient and innovative workability-enhancing solutions for our jack-up and floating vessels;
