Design & System Integration Engineer

Job publication date

Summary

Are you ready to turn operational needs into smart, buildable mission equipment to be installed and used on our vessels? As a Design & System Integration Engineer at DEME, you take ownership of multidisciplinary engineering projects with a strong mechanical focus. You translate functional requirements into concepts, coordinate the input of electrical, hydraulic and control disciplines, and guide external engineering partners from basic design through construction, commissioning and first operations. This is a broad technical project engineering role for someone who combines technical judgement with coordination skills. You do not need to be a specialist in every technical discipline. We are looking for a broad engineer who knows how to bring the right expertise together, ask critical questions and drive a project forward.

You will work from our Headquarters in Zwijndrecht, Belgium, with occasional (20%) traveling to suppliers and vessel sites.

Full Stack .NET Developer

We are looking for a Full Stack .NET Developer with a strong interest in AI‑assisted and agentic development to strengthen our internal engineering team.

You will work on business‑critical applications, combining maintenance and modernization of existing systems with the development of new solutions. The role is backend‑leaning, but you are comfortable working across the full stack—from .NET APIs to React frontends and deployment pipelines.

You enjoy solving complex problems, working independently, and taking ownership. You think beyond implementation: how systems evolve, scale, and deliver long‑term value.

At DEME, we are actively adopting AI‑augmented engineering practices. You will help shape this transition by integrating tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, Kimi or similar agents into daily workflows—using them to accelerate development, improve quality, and rethink how software is delivered.
