Aberdeen, United Kingdom Optimus Aberdeen Ltd Full time

Do you enjoy a challenge? Do you want to make a difference? Would you like to work within a friendly and inclusive team? We have an exciting opportunity working within both new and existing projects, creating bespoke, safe and cost-effective engineering solutions for our clients within the energy sector.

If you are passionate about Engineering, have some energy industry experience, or have transferable skills, then we would love to hear from you.

Due to a recent contract win covering the structural integrity management of all assets for a major client we require a Principal Structural engineer with significant experience in the analysis of offshore structures. Knowledge of DNV Sesam and USFOS software is essential.

  • Identify the scope of work required
  • Input to project plans
  • Identify areas of concern during any project or study
  • Produce cost- effective engineering solutions that are fit for purpose, safe and add value
  • Ability to address operational and maintenance issues in the design and liaise with colleagues for the best solution
  • Undertake surveys, both onshore and offshore
  • Exercise technical authority and autonomy in all engineering activities

Our Engineers can expect to work in a modern environment, enjoy flexible working and will be offered a range of working options to suit individual situations. We have a generous benefits package available which includes pension, enhanced sick pay and income protection to name a few.

About You

Our ideal candidate will enjoy team working, will be customer and quality focused, can use their own initiative and will be responsive to our business and client needs. We’d like you to have a degree in a relevant subject and significant previous experience in detail design with an understanding of other disciplines.

You need to have experience and an interest in working with AutoDesk products and have exposure to people management and development. There will be the opportunity to work in other locations, both on and offshore so candidates may need you to travel and hold the relevant certification to do so.

Candidates must have significant previous experience in the analysis of offshore structures to be considered for this role.

Knowledge of DNV Sesam and USFOS software is also essential.
