The opportunity is permanent and is part of the ambitious #AvanteTamandaré Program, focused on the construction of frigates for the Brazilian Navy.
But don’t be fooled: although the focus is electrical, the challenge is comprehensive — it requires technical agility, keen observation, and willingness to work behind the scenes of one of the most modern projects in the national shipbuilding industry.

The professional will work on the front lines of commissioning naval electrical systems, participating from the assembly and testing of equipment to the final integration with other onboard systems. Among the activities:

To apply, a complete high school education is required, along with technical knowledge of industrial electricity or electrical systems of vessels, in addition to familiarity with shipyard installations. Having up-to-date NR10 certification and experience with automation or naval instrumentation is a plus.
The position is also open to people with disabilities (PwD), reinforcing the company’s commitment to inclusion and diversity in the naval sector.
