Structural Engineer performs engineering design review, calculation and advanced structural analysis assignments, usually involving a significant project or several smaller or less complex projects. These projects, by nature of their complexity and difficulty, require the fully competent application of conventional knowledge in a particular field of engineering or science. Through broader and more technically challenging work assignments, will develop a thorough understanding of policies, methods, and procedures.
What You Will Do:
* With minimal or no supervision, performs detailed engineering review of plans, as assigned, for compliance with applicable Rules, Regulations, and contract commitments.
* Offers technical advice to field operations and other technical offices.
* Performs work that involves conventional engineering practices but may include moderately complex problems such as the resolution of conflicting design requirements, material standards or coordination of activities among other disciplines.
* Performs advanced structural analysis for floating offshore installation and/or marine vessels using finite element methods and as well as hand calculation.
* Performs structural assessment to evaluate assets remaining life.
* Proposes new approaches to problems encountered and makes recommendations for changes in methods, procedures, or designs.
* Drafts technically accurate and timely reports, and responses to letters, faxes, and other forms of communication.
* Interacts with clients to identify and resolve problems around technical expertise.
* Prepares accurate and timely weekly reports and billing on all work performed.
* Communicates the status of the current workload to all appropriate members of the team to ensure the needs of the clients will be met.
* Works as a team member within the group but may work most of the time autonomously.
* Implements and maintains ABS Quality System requirements relative to responsibilities after undergoing ABS Quality System training.
What You Will Need:
Education and Experience
* B.S. degree in Civil, Structural Engineering, Naval Architecture, Mechanical, Ocean Engineering, or other related disciplines with 5 years of experience on O&G projects, or shipyard, design/consulting office, or a classification society.
The following are requirements for university graduates and experienced engineers from industry:
* Demonstrated computer literacy in engineering software.
* Exposed to Finite Element Method (course work or supervised research).
Professional or chartered engineering license
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
* Demonstrated understanding and ability to apply fundamental classification and quality concepts, practices, and procedures.
* The ability to identify, analyze and propose solutions to problems (i.e., the competence to demonstrate complex problem-solving skills).
* Good command of the English language with the ability to communicate orally and in writing.
* Ability to work well with others.
* Ability to obtain a working knowledge of the ABS Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental Management Systems.
It Would Be Nice If You Had
