We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Technical Director specializing in Ports and Maritime Engineering to lead our engineering team. In this pivotal role, you will be responsible for overseeing the planning, design, and execution of maritime infrastructure projects. Your expertise will guide innovative solutions that enhance operational efficiency and ensure compliance with industry standards. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams and stakeholders to develop project strategies, manage budgets, and deliver outcomes that meet client expectations.

The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of maritime systems, port operations, and coastal engineering. You will lead feasibility studies, risk assessments, and technical evaluations, providing insights that drive project success.

A proven track record in project management, coupled with professional engineering licensure, is essential.
