As a Mechanical Design Engineer and member of an international Product Development Team, you will work on advanced industrial propulsion and motion systems used in large-scale engineering applications. You will take ownership of design tasks early in your role engineering parts, assemblies, and system arrangements from concept phase through to manufacturing-ready solutions. You will collaborate closely with experienced engineers, technical specialists, and cross-functional project teams across multiple global development hubs. Your work will span both new product development and the continuous improvement of an existing product portfolio. This is a hands-on, growth-oriented role well suited to someone eager to deepen their expertise in complex mechanical systems and contribute to technically challenging, real-world applications. Your responsibilities will include: Designing and developing mechanical components, assemblies, and system layouts from concept to production. Conducting engineering analyses, calculations, and 3D modeling to ensure robust and efficient designs. Ensuring all mechanical designs comply with relevant specifications, standards, and certification requirements. Working with multidisciplinary project teams to align design intent, resolve technical challenges, and support integration into larger systems. Performing feasibility studies and validating design decisions through analytical methods and simulations. Updating and optimizing existing designs to implement improvements and support product evolution. Presenting technical findings and design documentation to internal teams and project stakeholders. Contributing to the development and refinement of internal engineering processes, guidelines, and best practices. Staying informed about relevant industry advancements and emerging engineering methods. Qualifications and Requirements Bachelors or masters degree in mechanical engineering, marine engineering, or a closely related field. Experience in mechanical product development, or strong motivation to grow in this area. Proficiency in 3D CAD modeling (Siemens NX preferred, but other professional CAD tools are suitable). Experience generating technical drawings and understanding manufacturing processes. Strong grasp of mechanical design principles, materials, and production methods. Familiarity with Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) practices. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with an innovative, solution-oriented mindset. Excellent communication skills in English; willingness to learn Dutch is encouraged. Ability to work effectively in a multicultural, collaborative, and internationally oriented environment. A positive, proactive attitude, eagerness to learn, and ability to adapt quickly. Knowledge of maritime or heavy-industrial systems is advantageous.
