Company DescriptionSenior Structural Engineer - Topsides,Would you like to join a team with focus on high quality and development of technical knowledge? Are you an experienced structural engineer from the offshore industry - or have you previously worked on both advanced global analyses and local steel design (detail-oriented)? Have you involved in the design and assessment of topside structures? Then this is the right job for you.Inviting bright mindsDo you want to push the boundaries of your profession and develop your excellence in an open, collaborative and empowering culture? We work to create a sustainable future and our inspiring projects and innovative solutions aim to set the standard among our peers.

• Ensure that the team reaches its goals in time.
• Ensure a consistent and client focused service offering
• Support the Liaise between Chennai office and other Ramboll offices (mainly Esbjerg, Copenhagen, Doha, Oslo)

• Preparation of structural layout and design of connections.
• Responsible for selecting the structural layout independently and plan for the most optimum structure in terms of layout, connections and installation aspects.
• Analysis of offshore steels structures (topsides) via Finite Element programs (frame structures) - typical In-place, Lifting, Transportation & load out analysis
• Analysis of stressed skin steels structures via Finite Element programs - typical In-place, Lifting, sea transportation & load out analysis
• Ensure that all design documentation is carried out according to project requirements including
• Writing self-explanatory design/analysis reports/design documentation /design briefs/design basis (in English) of high quality in terms of language, content and readability.
• Maintain close interface to structural CAD design group and guiding CAD designers in preparing 2D drawings & 3D model of the selected solution. Being responsible for bringing design drawings up to final "Issued for Construction".

• Detail design of large offshore steel structures (prepare joint & connection design, via hand/desk calculations, Mathcad etc)
• Interdisciplinary coordination (with other departments)
• As analysis engineer there will be task as coach/mentor for junior employees in the department in their analysis work. Check their calculations and reports and continuously improve their skills via professional discussions. Typically, 1-3 colleagues at the time.
• Coordinate with projects and planning departments on schedule related issues.
• Preform quality check of other documents and Review/approval of documents.
• You will be required to travel short trip to Denmark for knowledge sharing whenever required

Qualifications

• Master of Engineering structural (preferred) - Ph. D: is an advantage. Bachelor of Engineering (optional)
• Minimum 8-10 years\' experience in design of steel structures - preferably offshore structures. Experience shall dominantly be within analysis work.
• Proven strong analysis capabilities in Structural Analysis software. Experience in SACS, Sesam. Ramboll uses ROSAP. Applicant must be able to migrate from other analysis software to ROSAP - training is given.
• Experience with design and analysis of stressed skin structures will be weighted heavily in the evaluation
• Must possess strong analytical abilities and skills to understand structural behaviour of larger structures, and independently perform analysis of these accounting for all aspects for the loading that the structure is exposed to.
• Can assess on his/her own, the appropriate analysis type to be applied for a structural problem. I.e. the ability to choose the best solution strategy: linear/nonlinear FEM, hand calculations or engineering judgement etc.
• Must possess strong analytical and proactive skills to design and optimise structures independently and reach a "sound" structural layout/design that encompass all design drivers equally or acc. to the project requirement such as: weight, fabrication "friendliness", general optimisation, steel section availability etc.
• Experience in analysing existing structures, applying loads, performing code check to relevant codes such as ISO, DNV-GL, EC3 and API.
• Experience in assessing structural analysis output - hereunder assess apparently overstressed members, check/review of analysis assumptions and provide guidance for further analysis and/or re-enforcement.
• Ability to document that potential overstressed member has adequate resistance via hand/desk calculations, Mathcad etc.
