MARINE & OFFSHORE STRUCTURAL ENGINEER - FEA

About the role

We are looking for a Marine & Offshore Structural Engineer – FEA with strong experience in 3D modelling, finite element analysis (FEA/FEM), and structural steel design. You will develop creative structural concepts, perform FEA simulations, and design practical solutions for marine transportation, vessels, heavy-lift equipment, and offshore structures.

Key responsibilities

• Develop 3D structural and FEA models, including meshing, loads, and boundary conditions.
• Perform structural simulations and assess stress, deformation, buckling, and structural capacity.
• Design and analyze vessels, barges, hull structures, cargo transport frames, grillages, offshore platforms, modules, jackets, and marine equipment.
• Design lifting lugs/padeyes, bolted connections, welded connections, foundations, and structural details.
• Develop creative and practical structural concepts for complex engineering problems.
• Prepare calculations, FEA reports, drawings, and technical documentation.
• Design in accordance with applicable Classification Society requirements and structural codes.

About you

• 3D structural modelling (ANSYS SPACECLAIM, RHINO, SOLIDWORKS etc.)
• FEA/FEM analysis and simulation (ANSYS, RFEM, SACS etc.)
• Finite element meshing
• Structural steel design
• Marine, vessel, offshore, or heavy structural engineering
• Lifting lug/padeye, bolt, and welded connection design
• Ability to interpret FEA results and develop practical engineering solutions
• Bachelor's degree in Structural, Civil, Mechanical, Marine Engineering, Naval Architecture, or related discipline.
• Good understanding of structural mechanics, steel design, load paths, buckling, and structural behavior.
• Understanding of Classification Society rules (DNV, ABS, LR, BV, etc.) and relevant structural codes.
