Job Responsibilities
- Carry out structural engineering design and strength assessments for hull structures, ensuring compliance with relevant marine standards and classification society requirements.
- Develop and evaluate structural solutions in accordance with project specifications, technical requirements, and engineering standards.
- Perform structural calculations for equipment foundations, supporting structures, and load-bearing components.
- Design and assess lifting arrangements, lifting lugs, and temporary structures, including jigs and fixtures, with a focus on structural safety and load capacity.
- Produce and check engineering drawings such as General Arrangement (GA), Midship Sections, and detailed structural drawings.
- Conduct structural weight assessments and propose design improvements to optimize material usage, structural performance, and overall project costs.
- Work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams, including Outfitting, Piping, HVAC, and Electrical, to resolve design interfaces and technical issues.
- Prepare technical documentation for classification approval and address technical feedback from classification societies such as ABS, DNV, BV, and LR.
- Participate in engineering reviews, risk assessments, and constructability evaluations to ensure designs are practical and suitable for production.
- Provide engineering assistance to detailed design, fabrication, and production teams throughout the project lifecycle.
- Monitor engineering modifications, maintain drawing records, and ensure proper document and revision management.
- Coordinate assigned engineering deliverables to ensure quality and compliance with project timelines.
Job Requirements
- Bachelor’s Degree in Naval Architecture, Marine Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a relevant engineering discipline.
- Approximately 2–5 years of experience in shipbuilding, offshore engineering, or marine structural design is preferred.
- Solid understanding of hull structural engineering, structural mechanics, and strength assessment methodologies.
- Knowledge of marine classification standards and regulations, particularly ABS, DNV, BV, or LR.
- Capable of performing manual engineering calculations and structural strength assessments.
- Familiarity with marine design and drafting software such as AutoCAD, AVEVA Marine, or equivalent tools.
- Understanding of marine structural materials, loading conditions, structural behavior, and potential failure mechanisms.
- Strong technical reasoning, analytical thinking, and problem-solving capabilities.
- High level of accuracy and attention to engineering details.
- Effective communication and collaboration skills when working with cross-functional teams.
- Able to manage multiple tasks and deliver engineering work within tight project schedules.
- Previous involvement in basic structural design for naval vessels or commercial ships.
- Exposure to Finite Element Analysis (FEA/FEM) software such as ANSYS, NASTRAN, or SACS.
- Practical knowledge of lifting engineering, lifting assessments, and temporary structural design.
