Manager/Sr. Manager - Propulsion Systems (Production- Engineering)

Production Planning & Management

• Develop detailed installation micro-plans, allocate work to supervisors and teams, and drive the propulsion section to meet project milestones, budget, and man-hour targets.

Critical Machinery Installation

• Lead the execution of all main machinery installations. Critically supervise

  optical/laser shaft alignment

  , stern tube boring, rudder boring, and final

  resin/metal chocking

  of main engines and DG sets to ensure stability and geometric precision

Outfitting & System Integration

• Direct the hook-up and integrity testing of auxiliary systems critical to the propulsion train (Fuel, Lube Oil, Cooling, Hydraulics, Control systems), ensuring seamless integration.

Quality & Class Compliance

• Ensure all installation, welding, and alignment procedures strictly adhere to

  Class Society rules

  (IRS, LRS, ABS, etc.) and the project's

  Quality Assurance Plan (QAP)

  . Coordinate third-party inspections and maintain full documentation for certification.

Testing & Trials

• Lead pre-commissioning checks, manage preparations and execution of the

  Basin Trials (BT)

  . Provide expert supervision and troubleshooting support for the propulsion unit during final

  Sea Trials (STW/CST)

  until vessel acceptance

Documentation & Reporting

• Establish and oversee the documentation framework

  for all propulsion, pump, and valve-related installation and overhauling activities in alignment with project execution and Quality Assurance Plans (QAP).

• Ensure all records, reports, and test documentation

  (installation, alignment, flushing, pressure tests, chocking certificates, etc.) are generated, reviewed, and approved in accordance with Class Society, OEM, and internal shipyard standards.

• Coordinate with Class Surveyors, Quality, and Project Documentation teams

  to ensure timely submission, verification, and endorsement of inspection reports and certificates.

• Review and approve technical dossiers

  including Inspection & Test Records (ITR), Commissioning Reports, and Non-Conformance Reports (NCR) before final sign-off.

• Maintain full traceability

  of equipment installation, material certificates, and testing documentation through integration with ERP / Document Management Systems (DMS).

• Ensure document readiness for audits

  both internal and externaland support Class, Owner, and OEM verification processes.

• Lead the preparation of the final propulsion system handover dossier

  , including as-built drawings, system performance data, test results, and OEM approvals for project closure.

• Mentor and guide documentation engineers and supervisors

  , ensuring timely and accurate data entry, compliance with control procedures, and consistency in reporting formats across all propulsion and outfitting systems.

• Report documentation status to Project Management Office (PPM)

  , highlighting gaps, pending approvals, and deviations for early resolution.
