The Junior Systems Integration Engineer supports the integration, testing, and verification of mechanical and electrical systems onboard marine vessels and platforms. Working under the guidance of senior engineers, this role assists in ensuring that subsystems—such as propulsion, HVAC, power distribution, control panels, and auxiliary equipment—work together seamlessly and comply with marine engineering standards. This role involves technical documentation, installation support, system-level testing, and collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.
Assist with integration planning and system layout for mechanical and electrical subsystems onboard ships
Support the installation and alignment of systems such as engines, gearboxes, pumps, switchboards, and automation controls
Participate in functional and interface testing of interconnected systems (mechanical–electrical–control)
Help troubleshoot system-level integration issues during commissioning and dock trials
Assist in reviewing system drawings, schematics, P&IDs, and wiring diagrams for integration compatibility
Contribute to system verification activities, including factory acceptance tests (FAT) and harbor acceptance tests (HAT)
Document integration findings, change requests, and engineering reports
Collaborate with design, commissioning, and QA teams to ensure system performance and regulatory compliance
Learn and apply relevant marine integration standards and classification rules (e.g., ABS, DNV, IMO, IEC)
Mechanical and electrical system interface validation
Support for onboard installation, testing, and commissioning
Cross-disciplinary coordination during marine system integration
Familiarization with regulatory and classification society requirements
Education:
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Marine Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related discipline (required)
Experience:
0–2 years of experience in systems engineering, marine engineering, or mechanical/electrical integration (internships or co-ops acceptable)
Exposure to shipboard systems or shipbuilding projects is a plus
Technical Skills:
Basic knowledge of marine mechanical and electrical systems (e.g., propulsion, power generation, HVAC, control panels)
Familiarity with engineering drawings, 3D models, wiring diagrams, and P&IDs
Proficiency with tools such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or EPLAN; exposure to system simulation tools is a plus
Understanding of system validation and troubleshooting techniques
Soft Skills:
Strong interest in hands-on systems integration work in shipboard or yard environments
Good problem-solving and analytical skills
Team-oriented, detail-focused, and eager to learn
Clear written and verbal communication for technical documentation and reporting
