• Provide technical safety input to management of change, modifications and work orders, and participate in or facilitate HAZID, HAZOP and design reviews.

• Interface with Portfolio Engineering, technical safety SMEs, barrier management advisors and other disciplines, and support audits and supervisory activities from the authorities.

• Proven experience with barrier management in operation, including ownership of performance standards, follow-up of degraded barriers and definition of compensating measures.
• Fluent in Norwegian and English, written and spoken.
• Documented ability to work independently and take full ownership of technical safety for an operating asset from day one, without an extended onboarding period.
• Valid offshore safety course and health certificate, or willingness to obtain them, and willingness to travel offshore.
