* Competent in the use of standard IT equipment and software, including the Microsoft Office suite of application (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
* Confidence, pragmatism and good communication and assertiveness skills as well as service-oriented work.
Desirable criteria:
* General mechanical and structural engineering skills in steel design, composite materials, rotating machinery, aerodynamics, hydrodynamics and geotechnical design.
* Experience with Metocean assessment.
* Confidence with wave simulation and load analysis at different levels of fidelity (Morison equation, Boussinesq approximation, OrcaFlex and similar).
* Experience with measurements and tests according to ISO/IEC 17025.
