MacGregor – Let's shape the future together
As a Technical Advisor Documentation, you will serve as the primary technical anchor within the Aftermarket department’s Fishery and Research project team. Your central purpose is to oversee and safeguard the entire lifecycle of project documentation, ensuring a seamless transition from initial engineering concepts to finalized, shippable products.
You’ll take full ownership of the technical data flow, beginning with the creation and control of hydraulic diagrams and production specifications, and managing critical inputs such as BOM lists and ERP system data. By guiding the project through rigorous IAT and FAT testing phases, you ensure that every delivery is not only technically sound but also accompanied by the comprehensive installation and user manuals necessary for successful operation in the field.
More tasks and responsibilities
- Prepare hydraulic diagrams, user manuals, and technical documentation for all products
- Manage ERP/SAP data, including BOM lists, material/serial numbers, and functional locations to ensure procurement readiness
- Provide direct support to production and assembly teams
- Handle FAT/SAT protocols and maintain mechanical/hydraulic drawings in Alfresco, PDM/PLM, and SAP systems
- Coordinate with purchasers for material lists and quality inspections of suppliers and sub-contractors
- Work closely with stakeholders and team members to meet deadlines and implement strategic plans
- Contribute to team strategy and process enhancements

Your ability to stay focused under pressure and your proactive attitude will be key to your success within our engineering team.
