We are looking for a Naval Designer specialised in the 3D modelling and design of ship structures and outfitting systems using FORAN and/or Siemens NX, within long-term naval projects in a multidisciplinary engineering environment. The role combines technical knowledge of naval architecture and shipbuilding with 3D modelling and the generation of production documentation directly from the model.

Main Responsibilities:

Naval modelling in FORAN / Siemens NX:

- Hull structure (plates, profiles, bulkheads, decks, foundations).
- Piping systems and fluid networks.
- HVAC systems and ducting.
- Electrical routing, cable trays and equipment.
- Machinery and equipment arrangement.
- Supports, penetrations and outfitting accessories.

Modelling, information and deliverables:
- Development of coordinated 3D models aligned with the rest of the disciplines.
- Routing and layout of systems according to design criteria, space constraints and safety requirements.
- Generation of deliverables directly from the model (general arrangement, construction and production drawings, isometrics and details).
- Extraction of bills of materials and production information.
- Application of project standards, templates, catalogues and naming conventions.
- Update of models and documentation following engineering changes.





Coordination and quality

- Coordination with other disciplines (structure, machinery, piping, HVAC, electrical) and participation in clash detection reviews.
- Geometric and information-level model quality control according to project and classification society requirements.

Requirements:

- Minimum 3 years of experience in naval design.
- FORAN and/or Siemens NX as primary modelling tool (mandatory).
- Degree in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or equivalent, or Higher Technician in design/drafting.
- Experience in the modelling of ship structures and/or outfitting systems.
- Experience in generating construction and production documentation from the model.
- Knowledge of shipbuilding processes and ship design criteria.
- Experience in multidisciplinary coordination and clash detection.

Preferred Experience:

- Projects in shipyards or naval engineering firms (defence, offshore, merchant vessels).
- Knowledge of classification society rules (DNV, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas, ABS).
- Experience with Teamcenter or other PLM environments.
- English level B2.
