FEA Engineer

Structural Analyst – Pioneering Maritime Decarbonisation!

Are you an exceptional Structural Analyst ready to drive innovation at the forefront of the maritime sector? Our client, a leading innovator in maritime technology, is seeking a Lead Structural Analyst to join their impressive and expanding team. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to truly novel solutions and significantly impact worldwide emissions for future generations.

About the Company:

Operating at the top tier of the maritime sector, our client boasts a successful track record with numerous distinguished projects, all focused on reducing emissions and enhancing performance. They are now in a significant scale-up phase, developing first-of-class solutions that are truly revolutionising the maritime world.

The Opportunity:

As a Structural Analyst, you will be working at the early concept stage, developing advanced engineering and design solutions. This role offers the chance to tackle complex engineering problems and make a substantial contribution to global decarbonisation efforts.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct detailed linear and non-linear structural analyses using Nastran.

• Develop and validate finite element models of complex structural components and assemblies.

• Perform static, dynamic, and buckling analyses to assess structural behaviour under various loading conditions.

• Perform hand calculations to verify and provide physical insight into FEA results.

• Collaborate closely with design engineers to optimise structural designs for weight, strength, and stiffness.

• Contribute to the development and implementation of best practices for structural analysis within the team.

• Stay abreast of the latest advancements in FEA methodologies and software capabilities.

• Participate in design reviews and provide crucial structural engineering input.

• Support physical testing programs by providing analytical predictions and correlation studies.

Your Background:

We are seeking the best and brightest engineers with:

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Naval Architecture, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related discipline with a strong emphasis on structural mechanics.

• Proven experience (typically 3+ years) in performing linear and non-linear structural analysis.

• Extensive hands-on experience with Nastran is essential. Familiarity with other FEA software (e.g., Abaqus, Ansys) would be a valuable advantage.

• A strong understanding of fundamental structural mechanics principles and the ability to perform accurate hand calculations for stress, strain, deflection, and stability.

• A solid understanding of finite element theory and its application to real-world engineering problems.

• Experience in the maritime, aerospace, or similar high-performance engineering sectors is highly desirable.
