Context
The Load Out Technician works in a heavy industrial manufacturing and yard environment supporting the movement and delivery of large, high-value subsea products. A significant portion of the work involves handling subsea umbilicals, which are large flexible products containing electrical, hydraulic, and other components used to provide power, control, and services to equipment installed offshore.
Products may be several kilometers in length and stored on large reels or specialized storage systems. Load Out Technicians support transferring these products between storage systems, transportation or installation reels, and offshore installation vessels.
Work involves cranes, forklifts, winches, tensioning equipment, reel-handling systems, heavy rigging, and other specialized equipment. Activities routinely involve suspended loads, stored energy, moving equipment, pinch points, and high-value finished products requiring strict adherence to safety controls, equipment limitations, and established procedures.
The position works closely with Production Leads, crane and equipment operators, HSE, Quality, Engineering, Planning and Logistics, project teams, transportation providers, vessel personnel, and contractors. Work is primarily performed on day shift but may require nights, weekends, extended shifts, or continuous operations based on manufacturing and project delivery requirements.
