Senior mechanical assembly (integration technician) (m/f/d)

This position involves leading the assembly, integration, and verification of advanced mechanical systems used in marine and subsea applications. The senior technician is responsible for handling complex builds, ensuring precision in critical interfaces, and supporting system readiness for testing and operational use. The role also serves as a technical point of reference within the workshop, guiding others and ensuring high standards of workmanship.

• Build and integrate complex mechanical systems and subassemblies for marine and underwater platforms.

  
  
  

• Carry out precision work on pressure housings, structural frames, mechanisms, and load‑bearing components.

  
  
  

• Install and validate critical mechanical interfaces, including seals, O‑rings, bearings, and alignment‑sensitive parts.

  
  
  

• Lead disassembly and reassembly activities during troubleshooting, upgrades, or system modifications.

  
  
  

• Serve as the main workshop contact for complex builds, working closely with mechanical design teams.

  
  
  

• Provide clear feedback on assembly challenges, tolerances, accessibility, and build sequencing.

  
  
  

• Participate in design discussions to improve manufacturability and integration efficiency.

  
  
  

• Contribute to refining assembly procedures and enhancing workshop standards.

  
  
  

• Prepare mechanical systems for pressure testing, environmental testing, and sea‑based trials.

  
  
  

• Support test execution, monitor system behavior, and assist with post‑test teardown.

  
  
  

• Participate in failure investigations and help identify root causes.

  
  
  

• Ensure all assemblies meet configuration and readiness requirements before testing.

  
  
  

• Guide junior and mid‑level technicians during assembly activities.

  
  
  

• Demonstrate best practices in precision assembly, sealing, cleanliness, and tool handling.

  
  
  

• Act as a technical reference during critical or high‑risk operations.

  
  
  

• Uphold safety rules, tool‑control procedures, and cleanliness expectations.

  
  
  

• Maintain a well‑organized, professional, and safe working environment.

  
  
  

• Technical diploma or vocational qualification in mechanical assembly, industrial mechanics, or a related field.

  
  
  

• 5–10 years of hands‑on experience in mechanical assembly or system integration.

  
  
  

• Experience in marine, subsea, aerospace, defense, or other high‑reliability industries is strongly preferred.

  
  
  

• Advanced ability to interpret mechanical drawings
