About The Position Of Systems Engineer

What to expect of the Systems Engineer position within Huisman?

As a Systems Engineer, you ensure that our products function as an integrated whole, and that the mechanical structure, hydraulic actuators, electrical power supply and control systems are properly aligned. Examples of such products include a knuckle boom crane, a motion-compensated pile gripper, a cable-lay system, automated stacking cranes and rail-mounted gantry cranes.

What do we expect of you?

As a Systems Engineer, your focus is on integrated system design.

You Are Responsible For

• System design and engineering. This includes independently preparing engineering deliverables, ensuring safe and cost-effective system designs for both the client and the organisation, documenting and substantiating technical decisions, and understanding and bridging the gap between different technical disciplines.
• Interdisciplinary collaboration. You act as a sparring partner for other engineers throughout the various phases of engineering. You define clear system interfaces, both internally (within the product) and externally (towards other systems). You prioritise between solutions from different disciplines.
• Technical validation and analysis. You validate designs against applicable standards and client requirements, and verify that the system performs as intended.
• Knowledge management and quality assurance. You provide feedback on standards and actively contribute to improvements.
• Designing and defining overall system architecture.
• Identifying design or integration risks early on and taking corrective actions.
• Creating technical documentation such as system overviews, interface descriptions, and test plans.
