This position supports all four of our Florida brands: Yacht StarShip, Pirate Water Taxi, Lost Pearl, and Craft.\nThis is not a desk-based engineering position. The Port Engineer is both the lead technical expert and the day-to-day leader of our maintenance team. The right candidate will be equally comfortable troubleshooting a mechanical failure, turning a wrench, working in an engine room, managing a repair project, and directing a team.\nWhat You'll Do\nThe Port Engineer will take ownership of the mechanical reliability, preventative maintenance, repair, and technical readiness of our Florida vessels and related equipment. Responsibilities include:\nServe as the lead technician and primary technical resource for mechanical issues across all Florida brands.\nDiagnose, troubleshoot, repair, and oversee repairs involving vessel engines, generators, pumps, plumbing, hydraulic systems, electrical components, HVAC, and other onboard mechanical systems.\nLead and work alongside a small team of engineers, maintenance technicians, dockworkers, and welders.\nEstablish daily priorities and assign work based on operational needs, preventative maintenance schedules, vessel availability, and urgency.\nDevelop and maintain preventative maintenance schedules to reduce downtime and identify problems before they become operational failures.\nRespond quickly to mechanical issues that could impact vessel operations, safety, or scheduled cruises.\nCoordinate larger repairs, maintenance periods, haul-outs, vendor work, and technical projects.\nInspect completed work and hold the team accountable for quality, safety, documentation, and timely completion.\nMaintain accurate maintenance records, repair histories, parts inventories, inspection documentation, and work orders.\nCoordinate purchasing and ensure critical parts, tools, and maintenance supplies are available.\nWork closely with Captains, Marine Operations leadership, and company leadership to prioritize vessel needs and communicate mechanical concerns.\nSupport regulatory inspections and ensure vessel maintenance practices align with applicable USCG requirements and company standards.\nAssist with dock, facility, fabrication, welding, and other maintenance projects as operational needs require.\nMaintain clean, organized, and safe maintenance, shop, dock, and work areas.\nThis Is a Hands-On Leadership Role\nWe want candidates to understand the nature of this position before applying. The Port Engineer is expected to lead from the front.\nYou will supervise employees, manage projects, establish priorities, and hold the maintenance team accountable, but you will also personally perform mechanical work. On any given day, you may move from planning a major repair project to troubleshooting an engine, working in a tight machinery space, helping a technician complete a repair, or responding to an unexpected vessel issue.\nThis is also a physically demanding marine environment. The position requires regular walking, climbing, bending, kneeling, lifting, carrying, working aboard vessels and docks, navigating stairs and ladders, and working in engine rooms and other confined or physically challenging spaces. Work may occur outdoors and in hot, humid, wet, noisy, or otherwise demanding conditions.\nWhat We're Looking For\nThe ideal candidate brings strong marine mechanical knowledge combined with the ability to lead people and take ownership of an operation.\nSignificant hands-on experience with marine diesel engines and vessel mechanical systems required.\nStrong diagnostic and troubleshooting skills.\nExperience with generators, pumps, plumbing, electrical, hydraulic, HVAC, and related marine systems strongly preferred.\nPrevious experience leading maintenance technicians, engineers, mechanics, or other skilled trades employees.\nCommercial passenger vessel, maritime, shipyard, marina, or similar marine operations experience strongly preferred.\nAbility to read technical manuals, schematics, maintenance documentation, and equipment specifications.\nStrong preventative maintenance and project-management skills.\nAbility to prioritize competing maintenance needs across multiple vessels and brands.\nComfortable coordinating outside contractors, vendors, parts suppliers, and specialized repair services.\nStrong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with Captains, operations leaders, technicians, and senior management.\nWillingness to be hands-on and personally participate in repairs and maintenance.\nAbility to respond appropriately when urgent mechanical issues arise outside the normal maintenance schedule.\nValid driver's license and reliable transportation.\nWhat Success Looks Like\nA successful Port Engineer doesn't simply fix equipment after it breaks. This person builds a maintenance operation that keeps our vessels safe, reliable, compliant, and ready for service.\nYou will be expected to know the condition of the fleet, anticipate upcoming maintenance needs, develop your team, maintain accountability, reduce preventable downtime, and ensure mechanical issues are followed through from identification to resolution.\nWhy Manthey Hospitality?\nManthey Hospitality operates some of Tampa Bay's most recognizable on-the-water hospitality experiences. This position provides the opportunity to take technical ownership of a diverse fleet supporting Yacht StarShip, Pirate Water Taxi, Lost Pearl, and Craft, while leading and developing a skilled maintenance team.\nWe offer competitive compensation, benefits for eligible employees, paid time off, 401(k) opportunities, employee discounts and experiences, and opportunities for continued growth within our organization.\nThis position is safety-sensitive and is subject to applicable USCG regulated drug and alcohol testing requirements.\nManthey Hospitality is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
