You’ll scope, plan and execute analysis work with minimal oversight, producing robust hand calculations, analytical models, and clear evidence to support engineering decisions. A key part of the role is balancing technical rigour with practical delivery timescales while ensuring all recommendations meet safety, environmental and regulatory requirements. This is a customer‑facing role that requires confidence working directly with stakeholders to clarify requirements, present findings and build trusted engineering relationships.
Key Responsibilities
Deliver structural and stress analysis for marine mechanical and hybrid structures.
Assess structural integrity considering environmental loads, degradation and ageing mechanisms.
Produce hand calculations, analytical models and supporting evidence.
Lead complete analysis packages from initial scope to final presentation.
Develop pragmatic, safety‑focused recommendations and modifications.
Maintain high‑quality documentation, drawings and analysis records.
Engage directly with customers and multidisciplinary teams to clarify requirements and communicate results.
