Engineering Manager

 Job Purpose 

Manages a multi-discipline engineering team and ensures the quantitative and qualitative adjustment of engineering resources according to project and/or operational needs.

Guarantees the compliance with TechnipFMC engineering design and manufacturing standards, procedures, and processes, and the respect of quality standards, targets, and customer satisfaction.

Is responsible for technical integrity of the disciplines.

  

Lead and oversee Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and New Product Development (NPD) initiatives focused on Subsea Production System (SPS) equipment including Christmas Trees, Tubing Hangers, Manifolds, Connection Systems, and related equipment.

Manage and guide a cross-functional team of engineers, driving both executional excellence and strategic alignment with business goals.

Ensure successful engineering execution by managing resources, developing team capabilities, and overseeing budgets, schedules, and resource planning for engineering programs and initiatives.

While this is a resource management role, technical expertise in subsea production equipment and associated manufacturing processes is essential for success. The role requires frequent application of industry knowledge to support decision-making and problem-solving.

Foster strong collaboration across global engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain teams to ensure effective representation and alignment in cross-functional discussions and decisions.

Build and maintain productive relationships with internal and external customers. Actively participate in design and change reviews, root cause analyses (RCAs), and technical problem-solving sessions to deliver solutions that are both technically sound and commercially viable.

 Main Tasks 

Staff organization with necessary talent, day to day management of projects and resources, and development of schedules, budgets and execution plans.

Establishing and maintaining a strong engineering organizational structure and a collaborative team culture.

Ensuring the overall delivery of high-quality technical outputs and engineering deliverables from the team.

Supporting offshore and offsite field operations by addressing technical issues and leading customer-facing technical communications when required.

Implementing Lean Engineering principles to enhance productivity and streamline processes.

Implementing and maintaining engineering processes that support operational efficiency.

Providing leadership in resolving complex technical issues across projects and disciplines.

Managing technical talent, fostering engineering development, and building a high-performing team.

Managing annual performance reviews, maintaining competency matrices, and developing people development plans and succession strategies.

Remove obstacles to team success and hold team members accountable for their deliverables.

Capturing, sharing, and applying lessons learned and best practices across projects and disciplines.

Foster a collaborative, inclusive, and high-performance team environment. Motivate and empower engineering staff to consistently perform at high levels.
