Job Description Summary: The purpose of the job is the development and management of all engineering activities related to the design of Offshore Wind Turbine Towers and to manage the tool chain and methodologies used on tower structural designs. With his structural engineering background, the SFE is capable of using GE Tower and Foundation design methods to further develop them and improve the existing toolchain, proposing validation plans and creating the right certification documentation, discussing with the certification body to achieve such certification. SFE is also the interface with our external partners (like developers, customers, substructure contractors, certification body) and other internal engineering processes (like site-specific load assessment, full structural integrity verification and environmental boundaries wind, sea, soil), manufacturing and installation.
Roles and Responsibilities Develop and control GE toolchain and methodologies used for Offshore tower structural designs.Elaborate tower and foundation conceptual and detail design proposals.Lead development of Tower & Foundation new components.Interface with external partners involved during all project/program phases in offshore wind farm projects: customers, certification bodies, foundations designers, and subcontractors.Internal execution of the engineering tasks required for site suitability and supporting GE proposal (load site specific assessment, site specific offshore foundation, all related to site specific data like wind, wave and metocean).Planning and monitoring of GE activities on the above for on-time delivery of GE scope of work. Required Qualifications Engineering degree / university Degree: Offshore, Civil, Structural, Mechanical Engineering.Relevant experience in product development and engineering, at least 3 years.Experience in structural design, loads, component development, test and validation, transport, and installation.Experience in project management.Knowledge in large structures dynamics, fatigue, and extreme load cases.General knowledge of manufacturing and construction processes.Fluent in English.High level of team working, communication skills, and project management. Desired Characteristics Fully able to work in a dynamic international working environment.High level of commitment.Finite Element experience.Coding skills is a plus.Ability for efficient reporting. Results oriented: according to quality, cost, and delivery targets.Courage and decisiveness. Availability to take decisions in technical complex issues or situations.Excellent in project documentation, report writing, project monitoring and reporting in view of contractual requirements.High capacity of analysis of complex problems and capability of managing uncertainties. Note: To comply with US immigration and other legal requirements, it is necessary to specify the minimum number of years' experience required for any role based within the USA. For roles outside of the USA, to ensure compliance with applicable legislation, the JDs should focus on the substantive level of experience required for the role and a minimum number of years should NOT be used.
