Heavy Lift Engineer (All Levels)

The Heavy Lift Engineer is responsible for engineering the safe, reliable, and efficient movement of large ship blocks, modules, and heavy equipment throughout the shipyard using Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs) and other transfer systems. The role also includes rigging engineering required to safely lift, rotate, and position major assemblies during transport and erection operations.

This position ensures that heavy component movement is fully integrated into shipyard design and production planning. The engineer will develop transfer strategies, rigging concepts, lifting studies, and transport plans to support efficient block movement while preventing production bottlenecks.

Early involvement in yard planning ensures that yard layouts, pavement structures, heavy lift equipment, transport corridors, and rigging strategies are designed to support safe and reliable operations at scale.
