Key Responsibilities
Marine 3D Laser Scanning & Surveying:
  * Carry out detailed 3D laser scanning surveys onboard cruise ships, vessels, dry docks, and marine facilities.
  * Capture accurate spatial data within complex vessel environments including machinery spaces, technical areas, accommodation spaces, pipework routes, structural areas, and equipment zones.
  * Plan survey activities to ensure complete data capture while working within operational vessel and dry dock constraints.
  * Process and manage high-volume point cloud datasets using FARO Scene software.
  * Register, align, clean, and validate scan data to produce accurate digital survey information.
  * Produce coordinated point cloud models and survey outputs suitable for engineering design and fabrication purposes.

  * Produce accurate as-built drawings and digital references for:
      * New and modified piping systems
      * Pipe routing and clash identification
      * Fabrication and installation works
      * Structural steel modifications
      * Equipment replacements and upgrades
  * Extract dimensions, locations, and spatial relationships from point cloud data to support engineering design.
  * Create 2D drawings, layouts, and fabrication information using AutoCAD.
  * Provide accurate digital representations of existing vessel arrangements to reduce risk during engineering and installation activities.
  * Support reverse engineering activities where existing vessel information or drawings are unavailable.
Experience Required
  * Proven experience in marine surveying, 3D laser scanning, or dimensional control within marine, offshore, or industrial environments.
  * Experience undertaking laser scanning surveys within vessels, shipyards, or dry dock environments.
  * Strong practical knowledge of FARO Scene software, including point cloud registration, processing, and data management.
  * Experience producing engineering outputs from point cloud data.
  * Competent AutoCAD user with experience producing as-built drawings and technical documentation.
  * Understanding of marine piping systems, fabrication processes, and structural steel applications.
