We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established marine equipment manufacturer for a Hydraulic Systems Engineer to join their busy Design and Engineering team.
This is a hydraulics-led design role, well suited to an established hydraulic systems specialist. You'll take ownership of hydraulic systems from concept through to commissioning, with real scope to optimise existing systems and help identify new areas of the market.
What you'll be doing:
Designing, developing and optimising hydraulic systems for marine deck equipment, concept through to commissioning
Specifying and sizing hydraulic components — pumps, motors, valves, manifolds, cylinders, filtration and pipework
Improving and optimising existing/legacy systems, plus upgrades and obsolescence management
Identifying new applications and opportunities to develop the product range
Hands-on support during build, assembly, test and validation (FAT/HAT)
Producing hydraulic schematics, technical drawings, BOMs and test reports
Working alongside Electrical, Mechanical, Project and Production teams
Engaging directly with customers and yards to deliver technical solutions
What we're looking for:
Proven hydraulic systems experience: power and motion systems (pumps, motors, actuators, manifolds)
Depth in hydraulic system design, analysis and troubleshooting
Ability to optimise existing systems and spot commercial/technical opportunities
Component specification and hydraulic schematic creation
CAD: CREO and/or AutoCAD preferred
Practical, hands-on mindset to support build and test
Minimum 3 years' relevant hydraulic experience (no fresh grads)
Nice to have:
Marine, offshore, or heavy-duty hydraulic equipment background
Knowledge of classification society rules and industry standards
