Wood Parat

Stavanger

You’ll be part of an experienced team supporting clients across industries with vibration and noise-related challenges. The role offers professional development, mentorship from skilled (and world renowned) colleagues, and the freedom to shape your own path within a niche area that matches your strengths and interests**.**
The person we hire will be responsible for helping to grow our Vibration Noise Dynamics business in Norway.
The Role 
Based on your background, the position offers a dynamic mix of office-based engineering and on-site support, both onshore and offshore, for high-profile clients. You’ll work independently at times, so a proactive mindset is essential. Whether analyzing data, troubleshooting vibration issues, or collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, your work will contribute directly to solving real-world challenges. If you're looking for a role that blends technical challenges, autonomy, and the chance to grow within a supportive team, this could be the perfect next step in your career.
You will join a strong team locally in Norway and therefore all candidates must currently have the right to reside/work in Norway. This is not a remote working position.
