• You possess a higher professional education (HBO) level of working and thinking.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in a comparable position
• Knowledge of production and engineering in yacht and/or shipbuilding.

Every year, an average of two superyachts leave the dry docks of the Koninklijke De Vries Scheepsbouw shipyard in Aalsmeer. Luxury, custom-made yachts that distinguish themselves through the quality of construction, engineering, and finishing.

As an engineer, you will make an important contribution there. To hybrid propulsion systems, fuel cells, new batteries, and a more efficient way to manage energy. As an electrical engineer, you are at the foundation of the development and implementation of new fuel systems and energy recovery on board. Your work completes these impressive 80-meter yachts.

As an Electrical Engineer, you direct the collaboration between RH Marine, suppliers, and our internal teams. You ensure that everything runs smoothly and efficiently during all electrotechnical activities and installations. From batteries, generators, solar panels, and watermakers: you ensure that the necessary information is available. Think of batteries: dimensions and placement on board depend on the design. And vice versa. That makes the work dynamic. Focusing on main outlines, determining direction, and making choices is therefore important, so that the progress of the project is guaranteed. You are not a technical engineer yourself, but are primarily the link that ensures coordination.

Because you are present on the work floor, you can switch quickly and make decisions. In this way, you ensure seamless collaboration between all parties.
