Diesel Service Technician

Repairing diesel engines aboard inland vessels, in the harbour, or in the workshop — no two days are the same. As a Diesel Service Technician, you'll diagnose faults, carry out overhauls, and advise customers. Hands-on technical work with plenty of variety and responsibility from day one.

You'll join a specialized technical service company in the maritime sector, focused on the maintenance and repair of diesel engines for shipping. The company works both on board vessels on location and in its own workshops and harbour facilities, serving customers in the Netherlands and abroad. Technology is at the core of everything: from fault diagnosis to complete engine overhauls. You'll work in a close-knit team of skilled professionals where technical expertise and customer focus go hand in hand. There's room to further develop your skills and grow along with an organization that takes pride in technical craftsmanship.

As a Diesel Service Technician, you're responsible for the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of diesel engines aboard inland vessels. You'll work on location at the customer's site, on board, in the harbour, or in one of the workshops — variety is part of every working day. You diagnose faults, carry out repairs, and ensure engines run at their best again. You're also the customer's point of contact for maintenance and advice on their diesel engine. You work both independently and as part of a team, and travel regularly to different locations in the Netherlands and abroad. Precision and craftsmanship are central to everything you do.
