They are looking for a Mechanical Commissioning Engineer to join the team in Castellanza, Italy, from January. /ppThe role centres on testing and commissioning two key areas of the plant: the hydrogen systems and the cooling systems. You will be the lead mechanical voice for this scope, taking systems from construction completion through pre-commissioning and into live testing, and working closely with the wider commissioning, construction and operations teams. /ppThe assignment is expected to run for around six months from a 4 January 2027 start.
