^QSIJ — View all Fourth Engineer sailors from India

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

What ^QSIJ19980105 means

^QSIJ19980105 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, J, is the rank: Fourth Engineer. So ^QSIJ is the node for every Fourth Engineer from India, and this page is one member of it.

The trailing digits 19980105 encode the holder's date of birth as YYYYMMDD — 05 Jan 1998 — 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 Fourth Engineer rank

The Fourth Engineer is the entry officer rank in the engine department, keeping a watch and typically caring for purifiers, compressors, pumps and sewage and oily-water systems on an STCW III/1 certificate.

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.

274 people hold a Fourth Engineer code from India on Zulu Code. The parent node ^QSIJ 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 ^QSIJ19980105 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.
