Senior Mechanical Commissioning Engineer - offshore oil and gas

Kintec Global is hiring a Senior Commissioning Engineer

on behalf of a growing offshore engineering business. This role is offered on a full-time basis with highly competitive salary, benefits and opportunities for career progression. You'll be exposed to exciting offshore projects and work with an expert commissioning team utilizing the latest technologies. This is a Houston office-based role with trips to site as and when required, supporting commissioning planning and execution on energy facilities — from design review through procedures, systems completion, and handover.

The role

• You will support the Commissioning Manager in delivering safe, well-documented commissioning.
• Own the commissioning execution pack: plans, system procedures, check sheets, and schedule logic.
• Lead design-review input and define pre-startup sequences, including nitrogen leak testing, purging, vessel fills, and train circulation.
• Set the systems-completion strategy at kickoff and hold it through execution.
• Control progress reporting, raise and close technical queries, and force issues to resolution before they stall handover.
• Align operations, subsea, export pipeline, and other disciplines so systems transfer cleanly.
• Hold the documentation standard — weekly updates, QA/QC, lessons learned, and bid or proposal material when required.

What you need

• Engineering degree preferred
• 8 or more years of relevant experience preferred;
• Strong written and verbal communication.
• Willingness to travel offshore and internationally as per project demands.
