About the position

Would you like to work in an international and multicultural project environment with global impact as you take on a hands-on role in technical project execution from engineering and potentially to commissioning? Join an organization focused on quality, structure, and collaboration, and work closely with experienced Project Managers and Engineers, giving you a clear development path with increasing responsibility over time.

Your responsibilities and tasks

You will become part of our Project Management department in Søborg, where we execute customer-specific projects within process industries, including pharmaceutical, dairy, food and utility applications. The team consists of experienced Project Managers and Project Engineers with strong technical backgrounds and solid project experience, collaborating closely with customers, suppliers, and colleagues worldwide. This makes clear communication, openness, and mutual respect across cultures a natural part of our everyday work.

Your responsibilities and tasks

As our new Project Engineer, you will support the execution of customer projects from engineering potentially through commissioning, working closely with the Project Managers. You will take ownership of defined technical and project-related tasks, ensuring that documentation, components, and deliverables are ready for each project phase.

Specifically, you will:

• Develop, maintain, and verify technical documentation such as P&IDs, General Arrangements, and Equipment Lists.

• Support design reviews and contribute to Impact Assessments related to design changes, deviations, or scope adjustments.

• Specify, order, and follow up on process equipment, utility systems, valves, and piping components in cooperation with Procurement, workshops, and suppliers.

• Prepare and maintain Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) request lists and support FAT execution.

• Support Contract Variation Orders (CVOs) with technical input and documentation, and coordinate with Packaging & Shipment to ensure equipment is delivered according to project requirements.

• Support pre-commissioning and commissioning activities, testing, troubleshooting, Site Acceptance Test (SAT) and final acceptance.

You can look forward to collaborating across disciplines, cultures, and locations, as well as interacting with international customers and partners. The role could involve some travel activity in connection with FATs, inspections, and commissioning.

Your profile and qualifications

In this role, it is essential that you take a structured and systematic approach to your work, with strong ownership and attention to quality, safety and documentation. You also know how to collaborate across disciplines and cultures in an international environment and are comfortable working with technical details.

Finally, we imagine that you:

• Hold a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Engineering, Marine Engineering (Maskinmester), Mechanical Engineering, Process Engineering or a similar technical discipline.

• Have an interest in technical project execution within the process-, food-, dairy-, or pharmaceutical industry.

• Are fluent in English.

It is an advantage, but not a requirement, if you have experience with:

• Utility systems such as process utilities, water systems, steam, or HVAC.

• CIP (Cleaning-in-Place) systems and hygienic process design.

• Technical documentation and engineering deliverables.

• FAT, SAT, commissioning, or validation activities.

• GMP-regulated environments.

• Process equipment and automation interfaces.
