Project Engineer – Portuguese-speaking | Industrial Projects

Are you an engineer with experience in project coordination and a strong ability to keep technical projects moving forward? Do you speak Portuguese and English fluently and enjoy working with customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders in an international environment?

We are looking for a Portuguese-speaking Project Engineer to join our client, a major international technology company operating in the marine and industrial sectors. In this role, you will support international delivery and service projects related to large-scale engine technology and technical equipment, with a particular focus on customers and projects in South America.

About the role

This is a hands-on project role where you will coordinate activities, follow up on purchases and deliveries, communicate with customers and suppliers, and make sure agreed actions progress according to schedule.

The assignment is initially six months, and we hope you can start as soon as possible.

Work tasks

You will work closely with an experienced international project organization and support a Project Manager responsible for several customer projects. The team has recently grown, creating a need for additional project engineering capacity.

A significant part of the role involves projects in Portuguese-speaking markets in South America, which makes fluent Portuguese essential. You will communicate directly with customers and help translate their needs into concrete actions within the project organization.

The projects are related primarily to large industrial engines, engine components and associated technical services. You do not need to be an engine specialist when you join, but you should be comfortable working with technical equipment and industrial projects.

The role combines project coordination, customer communication, procurement and technical understanding. Success requires an organised and proactive approach: when something needs to happen, you take ownership of following it through.
