ACCOUNTABILITIES
The Senior Subsea Systems Engineer’s primary focus is required to be on technical compliance of the Subsea Systems designs with Contract requirements. The objective of the role is to obtain equipment to specification, of the requisite quality levels in line with the Contract Schedule.

The Senior Subsea Systems Engineer will report to the SPS Engineering Manager for all technical matters throughout execution of the Project, ensuring development by the SPS Contractor of design documentation in compliance with the Exhibit E Design Dossier and Operational Requirements

CONTEXT AND ENVIRONEMENT
The Egina Project is a challenging Contract, both technically and with respect to execution strategy wherein a high quotient of work shall be conducted in-country, from engineering through to construction and test. This requirement is reflected in the requirement to base Company and Contractor’s Management Engineering teams in Lagos and to maximize fabrication effort within Nigeria.

The SPS Package is, in essence, a “delivery” package with equipment from the SPS Package being installed on or by facilities designed / provided by other Packages. The on-time delivery of SPS equipment is essential to ensure that “receiving” Packages are not adversely impacted. The SPS team’s organisation will be structured to reflect the selected Contractor's organisation. Accordingly, the SPS Company team will be aligned into Technical compliance and  Equipment  delivery;  the  former  will  monitor  Contractor  performance  to  ensure  conformance  with  the engineering specifications whilst the latter will be tasked with assuring execution of the work is conducted in accordance with Contract objectives and requirements.

NECESSARY PROFILE
•     Education: Professional engineer.
•    Qualification: >10 years experience in Subsea Production Systems and / or a discipline of SPS. Demonstrable knowledge of intra SPS discipline interfaces. Previous experience of Company / Operator Representation during Detail Engineering phase is an advantage.
•     Mobility: Placement is in Lagos, Nigeria at SPS Contractor location with the potential for international trips.
•    Language: English fluent.
