Structural Engineer

In the Project Structural Engineer and Stress Analyst position you will work in a fast-paced environment and perform structural analysis using hand calculations and finite element analysis (FEA) on a wide variety of highly loaded subsea structure such as ROV frames, mechanisms, pressure vessels, ship over-boarding equipment, and advanced development projects.  You will work with designers from a program’s initial stages through structural testing and completion, influence load path, and ensure structural integrity.  The work spans static and dynamic studies, performing linear and non-linear structural analysis including transient shock, fatigue and fracture, bolt and weld analysis, defining load tests, and documentation.  

Applicant must be a US citizen and have the capability to obtain a security clearance.  Applicants with Top Secret/SCI with CI poly are preferred.

ESSENTIAL:

• Develop load cases and quantify loads for primary and secondary structures.
• Perform initial sizing of conceptual structure.
• Perform static analysis using industry standard methods (Bruhn, Roark, Shigley).
• Perform stress analysis by developing, solving, and post processing large FEA models using ANSYS.
• Possess an understanding of converting complex systems into simplified FEA.
• Participate in design reviews.
• Properly document analysis.
• Additional duties as assigned.
