This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Pipeline Engineer based in Netherlands.
As a Senior Pipeline Engineer, you’ll bring deep pipeline integrity expertise into the development of a leading asset integrity software platform.
You’ll help shape digital products that enable major energy and industrial organizations to manage complex pipeline networks and reduce operational risk.
Working closely with product, engineering, delivery, and customer teams, you’ll translate real-world integrity practices into practical software capabilities.
Your expertise will influence product roadmaps, technical requirements, customer implementations, and the evolution of industry best practices.
You’ll also engage directly with operators, helping them improve integrity maturity, make better decisions, and maximize the value of digital solutions.
The role combines technical engineering, customer engagement, product development, and industry thought leadership in a highly collaborative environment.
It offers the opportunity to make a tangible contribution to safer, smarter, and more sustainable operations across global asset-heavy industries.
Accountabilities:
- Partner with Product Management and Software Engineering to define and evolve the pipeline integrity product roadmap, from problem definition through user stories, acceptance criteria, and release validation.
- Translate pipeline integrity standards, regulations, and industry practices—including API 1160, ASME B31.8S, and ASME B31.8—into clear and actionable functional requirements.
- Develop and review technical specifications, calculation logic, and product documentation, and validate software behavior against real-world pipeline data.
- Bring the operator perspective into design reviews, prototypes, usability sessions, and product decisions to ensure solutions reflect actual operational needs.
- Collaborate with specialists across mechanical integrity, reliability, and functional safety to maintain a coherent, plant-wide approach to asset integrity.
- Lead customer business-process review workshops and help map integrity management processes onto digital solutions while identifying opportunities for improved maturity and performance.
- Support implementation, configuration, and data migration projects, ensuring technical decisions are robust, traceable, and aligned with customer objectives.
- Deliver software and business-process training covering areas such as inspection and ILI planning, anomaly management, corrosion assessment, fitness-for-service, degradation management, risk-based assessment, and repair decision-making.
- Provide expert support for complex technical questions following implementation and identify recurring customer needs that can inform future product development.
- Help define customer success through maturity benchmarks, adoption measures, and measurable business outcomes.
- Represent the organization at conferences, user groups, standards committees, and industry working groups, bringing relevant insights back into product and business strategy.
- Contribute to thought leadership through technical articles, white papers, webinars, presentations, and customer case studies.
- Support sales and pre-sales activities through product demonstrations, technical discussions, proposals, and credible industry expertise.
- Build internal pipeline integrity capability by sharing knowledge with colleagues across Product, Delivery, and Commercial teams.
Requirements:
- 10+ years of professional experience in pipeline integrity, ideally within Oil & Gas, Chemicals, Petrochemicals, or another asset-intensive industry.
- Strong operator-side experience, including direct accountability for pipeline integrity decisions and outcomes.
- Comprehensive knowledge of pipeline integrity management practices, including threat identification, risk assessment, inspection and ILI planning, ILI data interpretation, and anomaly assessment.
- Hands-on understanding of fitness-for-service methodologies such as ASME B31G, RSTRENG, and API 579.
- Strong knowledge of pipeline degradation mechanisms and associated mitigation and monitoring techniques, including cathodic protection, coatings, chemical treatment, and above-ground surveys.
- Familiarity with Asset Integrity Management (AIM), Asset Performance Management (APM), or comparable digital integrity solutions.
- Comfortable working with engineering data and understanding its quality, structure, limitations, and practical application.
- Strong interest in AI, machine learning, and other advanced technologies, with curiosity about how they can improve engineering and integrity processes.
- Some experience with, or strong interest in, software and engineering digitalization, combined with the ability to work effectively in short, iterative cycles with product managers and developers.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to engage effectively with both technical engineering teams and senior executives.
- Comfortable operating across multiple functions and responsibilities in a fast-moving, collaborative environment.
- A proactive, accountable, customer-focused mindset with strong ownership, curiosity, and a commitment to continuous learning.
- A Master’s degree in pipeline engineering or a related engineering discipline is advantageous.
- Chartered Engineer, Professional Engineer, or equivalent professional accreditation is a plus.
- Knowledge of relevant pipeline standards and certifications, such as ISO, NACE, or AMPP, is beneficial.
- Participation in standards bodies, joint industry projects, or industry working groups is highly valued.
- Published technical papers, conference presentations, webinars, or other evidence of industry thought leadership is a plus.
- Experience implementing or owning pipeline integrity software from the customer side is advantageous.
- Experience working with global operators is beneficial.
Benefits:
- Competitive compensation with additional benefits and perks.
- Opportunity to work in a fast-growing and evolving technology-driven industry.
- Meaningful opportunity to influence software used to improve safety, reliability, and sustainability across asset-heavy industries.
- Continuous learning and professional development opportunities to support long-term career growth.
- Collaboration with experienced professionals across engineering, product, technology, delivery, and commercial functions.
- Exposure to global customers, industry experts, operators, standards organizations, and emerging technologies.
- A collaborative culture built around customer focus, ownership, accountability, growth, and focused execution.
- Team activities designed to foster genuine connection and collaboration.
- Opportunity to contribute to thought leadership and shape the future of digital pipeline integrity.
- Remote working opportunity within Europe.
