Shape the Future of Master Data at Damen
At Damen Shipyards Group, we are on an ambitious journey to become a truly data-powered organization. To support this vision, we are strengthening our Data & AI capabilities and investing in the people, platforms, governance, and technologies that enable trusted, high-quality data across the enterprise. The role is intended to strengthen Damen's Master Data Management capability and ensure that master data becomes a reliable foundation for operational excellence, analytics, AI, and digital transformation initiatives.
We are not looking for someone who simply administers an application.
We are looking for a hands-on MDM professional who understands how master data drives business value and who can help evolve our enterprise data landscape through robust platform engineering, process improvement, and stakeholder collaboration. You may come from manufacturing, shipbuilding, construction, marine, offshore, engineering, energy, utilities, or similar asset-intensive industries where fragmented data, disconnected systems, and inconsistent data definitions create operational challenges.
This is an opportunity to influence how trusted master data is managed across a global maritime leader and contribute directly to Damen's Data & AI transformation journey.
The Role
As an MDM Application Engineer (Stibo STEP), you will be responsible for the configuration, development, support, and continuous improvement of Damen's Master Data Management platform.
You will work closely with Data Owners, Data Stewards, Business Analysts, Product Owners, Enterprise Architects, Data Engineers, and business stakeholders to establish scalable master data capabilities that improve data quality, governance, standardization, and business performance.
The role requires a balance between technical expertise, problem-solving, stakeholder engagement, operational support, and continuous improvement.

As part of a growing Data & AI function, you will benefit from strong executive sponsorship, strategic investment, and the opportunity to contribute directly to Damen's long-term data maturity ambitions. This is a unique opportunity to combine technical expertise, business engagement, and innovation while working in a collaborative environment that encourages ownership, continuous improvement, and professional growth.
