Power hydraulics development specialist

Expert with passion for developing future fuel injection systems
At MAN Energy Solutions, our sights are clearly set on taking on the big challenges of climate change. It’s what we call Moving Big Things To Zero.
We offer a portfolio of pioneering technologies that contribute to a carbon-neutral world: In the maritime sector, this means developing and providing the technology that will enable global shipping to be powered by bio-fuels and carbon-neutral fuels such as methanol and ammonia that have been derived from renewable energy sources.
As a direct consequence of our strategic goals, we are boosting and restructuring the hydraulics and fuel injection functional area of R&D for marine two-stroke engines. If you want to help us moving big things to zero and make a real difference in the decarbonization of the shipping industry, contributing as expert in development of Hydraulics and Fuel Injection equipment might be the perfect next step for you.
We are looking for an Engineer preferably with experience from R&D, who has the skill and motivation to drive the development of on-engine power hydraulics components and systems for exhaust valve actuation and fuel injection within our large portfolio of MAN B&W two-stroke engines. Together with a multi-disciplinary team of experts within development and engineering you will make sure that new technology is transformed in to solid and verified design concepts, that is well documented so our engineering departments can apply the technology on our engines.
You’ll will play an important role in:
You:
- Take active part in the ideation process and concept development by contributing with your analytical approach and ability to identify complex correlations.
- Create well documented design concepts for hydraulic components or systems, including specifications and diagrams.
- Communicate design concepts to suppliers, customers and our engineering departments.
- Act as troubleshooter with a cool head, sometimes take the lead on task forces or project work packages/smaller projects for new developments.
- Specify and follow tests at suppliers or at our licensees in Asia. Collect service experience and test results to meaningful reports, presentations and action plans.
- Share technical expertise within your expert field by mentoring or showing the good example.
- Work primarily in our head office in Copenhagen, however, 10-30 travel days per year typically in either Europe or Asia may occur.
We imagine that you:
- Master one or more of the following areas, preferably on a specialist level: Production engineering, integration of mechanical and electronic systems, root cause analysis and mitigation planning, risk analysis methodologies such as HAZID, HAZOP and FMEA.
- Are able to see the broader perspectives, without losing the necessary attention to details. You are good at understanding the relevance of a task or problem in the context of an organization and the final product.
- Are highly skilled in clear and concise technical writing. You are able to clearly identify most important points and accurately describe them.
- Are good at cultivating a network with many stakeholders. Can confidently present your work at a level adapted to the audience and act in meetings to get your agenda through.
- Have a M.Sc,/Ph.D. degree or equivalent specialist skills from experience in engineering.
- Could have industry experience in the development of hydraulic components/systems or general development for the marine business.
Welcome to Hydraulics and Fuel Injection Concepts
You will join the Hydraulics and Fuel Injection Concepts department within the functional area Hydraulics and Injection
Development of two-stroke R&D. We are responsible for developing fuel injection/admission concepts and design prototypes for fuel equipment, hydraulic components and systems. Together with our colleagues within the functional area, we analyze structural and thermal loads on our components, we run simulations of both injection and combustion and conduct tests on both test rigs and real engines to validate new concepts and designs.
We are collaborating with a wide range of departments within and outside R&D on a variety of tasks and projects. The working atmosphere is relaxed and all are committed to succeed as a team by being supportive, flexible and share knowledge and experience. There is space for creativity and to play with new ideas.
