^QSIG — View all Chief Engineer sailors from India

Part of the ^QS Sailors registry — the Zulu Code maritime human-capital index.

What ^QSIG20260903 means

^QSIG20260903 is a Zulu Code person identifier, read one letter at a time. The leading ^Q places it in the Human Capital & Services system, and QS is the Sailors registry inside it: every seafarer and shore professional on Zulu Code sits under ^QS.

The third letter, I, is the country: India. The fourth letter, G, is the rank: Chief Engineer. So ^QSIG is the node for every Chief Engineer from India, and this page is one member of it.

The trailing digits 20260903 encode the holder's date of birth as YYYYMMDD — 03 Sep 2026 — which is what keeps every member of a rank node sorted by age and makes the code unique for one person. The full grammar is explained on the About page at zulucode.org/about.

About the Chief Engineer rank

The Chief Engineer heads the engine department and is responsible for the main engine, generators, boilers, auxiliary machinery, fuel and the vessel's technical condition. The rank requires an STCW III/2 Chief Engineer certificate and shares overall accountability for the ship with the Master.

Sea-going ranks occupy the letters A to T of the ^QS registry; shore ranks such as Technical Superintendent and Purchase Manager sit at U to Z, so a career that moves from ship to office stays inside the same registry.

152 people hold a Chief Engineer code from India on Zulu Code. The parent node ^QSIG lists all of them.

How verification works

A Zulu Code is a verifiable credential, not a public profile. Without the holder's 4-digit PIN this page shows only what the code itself encodes: registry, country, rank and the encoded date. With the PIN, the same page unlocks the holder's name, contact details, ZULU-verified rating and the ZULUCODE standard resume.

That is why ^QSIG20260903 is safe to print on a CV or a business card: a recruiter who has been given the PIN sees a verified record, and anyone else sees a code. The PIN can be changed by the holder at any time, which revokes every earlier link.
