About the Role
As Junior Loads Engineer, you will run site-specific load analyses for fixed-bottom offshore wind turbines, including Integrated Load Analyses (ILA) with the substructure. You will work alongside senior engineers who will help you grow.

In your first three months, you’ll learn the FLEX5-based toolchain, offshore Design Load Cases and the ILA workflow. By six months, you’ll run site-specific load loops independently, with senior review. From there, you’ll grow toward owning complete offshore load assessments and automating the processes behind them.

This is a role for a curious engineer with strong fundamentals who wants to build real expertise in offshore wind.

Why Join Us?

  • Start your career in offshore wind, one of the fastest-growing areas in renewable energy

  • Follow a structured ramp-up with senior engineers reviewing and supporting your work

  • Run real site-specific load analyses, from setup to client delivery

Key Responsibilities

  • Run fatigue and extreme load analyses on aeroelastic WTG models in FLEX5-based tools

  • Define and set up Design Load Cases (DLCs) according to IEC 61400

  • Perform Integrated Load Analyses for fixed-bottom offshore substructures, including wave modelling

  • Run load analysis loops for site-specific projects, from setup to sharing results with external stakeholders

  • Document results and assumptions in clear technical reports

  • Flag risks early to project managers and technical leads

  • Automate simulation pipelines and post-processing using MATLAB, Python, PowerShell and Power Automate

What We’re Looking For

Required Qualifications

  • MSc in Engineering (Aerospace/Aeronautical, Mechanical, Electrical, Naval or similar)

  • Up to 2 years of relevant experience, recent grads are also welcome

  • Knowledge of structural mechanics, structural dynamics and aerodynamics

  • Good proficiency with simulation software and intermediate scripting in MATLAB and/or Python

  • Strong analytical thinking and root cause analysis

  • Proactive and collaborative mindset

  • Fluent English, spoken and written

Preferred Skills

  • Knowledge of wind energy and wind turbine loads

  • Knowledge of hydrodynamics and wave modelling

  • Familiarity with offshore support structures (e.g. monopiles, jackets)

You don’t need wind energy experience to apply. If you have strong fundamentals in structural dynamics, enjoy scripting and want to learn offshore loads properly, we encourage you to apply.

What We Offer

  • Attractive compensation package aligned with experience and expertise

  • Structured onboarding and technical training with senior engineers

  • International project exposure and travel opportunities

  • Supportive, collaborative, and innovative work environment.

Ready for Your Next Challenge?
If you want to start your engineering career where the analysis really matters, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and help design the offshore wind turbines of tomorrow.
