How you can make your mark
The Maritime Dynamics Department, MDD in short, is Boskalis' knowledge team for all issues related to our maritime activities. Consider, for example, how sea conditions can burden equipment, put work tolerances and safety under pressure, whether it concerns dredging, construction of ports or installation of offshore wind turbines, cables and tunnels. To counter this we are constantly looking for the most suitable combination of method and equipment for Boskalis' wide variety of projects and use a variety of tools to help us in making the right analysis.

With your expertise and commitment, you can make your mark to the successful implementation of projects and the further optimization of new and existing equipment. As MDD engineer you can translate your technical knowledge into concrete and practical solutions and disseminate this to both internal and external stakeholders.

Some of this support will be high level checks on strength, stability and dynamic response needed in the selection of the most suitable work method and equipment. But many questions require a deeper investigation, combining common sense with a thorough understanding of the physics behind marine systems and how these can be analysed with tools like Aqwa, Orcaflex.

You are able to go beyond the applications of standard codes and software, by complementing with self-developed add-ons (using Matlab, Python) to mimic for instance active motion compensation or station keeping systems. Though detailed design of mechanical systems, including drives and controls are not your main task, a good understanding and affinity with these aspects is instrumental in the cooperation with colleagues and external parties.

Your responsibilities as MDD Engineer

• Contribution of MDD-specific knowledge to projects in preparation and execution phase and to the construction or conversion of our equipment.
• Development of working methods and equipment in close collaboration with the various stakeholders.
  • Research into how the maritime environment influences the work process.
  • Desk studies, calculations and / or measurements in the field and / or laboratory.
  • Analysis and interpretation of the results.
  • Setting up simulation / simulator models.
  • Sharing of the acquired insights with colleagues and other stakeholders.
  • Collaborating on solutions and optimisations.
• Preparation, validation, maintenance and application of calculation models.

We offer

You can make your mark as MDD Engineer if you have:

• Affinity with our offshore activities and knowledge of the associated equipment.
