What you'll do

  • Lead structural design efforts supporting industrial gas turbine packaging, gas compression and power generation projects, and BOP systems engineering and design.
  • Apply discipline-related industry standards across engineering specifications and vendor documentation.
  • Generate framing drawings, foundation drawings, detail drawings, structure plans and elevations, layouts and fabrication drawings.
  • Perform structural member design, connection design, foundation design, pipe rack design, loading and load assessment, and design of pipe rack and cable tray support structures, platforms, ladders, handrails and roofs.
  • Create 3D models, perform 3D model reviews, conduct clash checks and resolve clashes.
  • Generate programming files, MTOs and BOMs from structural 3D models.
  • Review vendor drawings and NWD models.
  • Continuously improve fabrication activities in technical knowledge, efficiency, quality and productivity.
  • Provide full technical support to the shop floor for assembly, shipping and commissioning.
  • Support commissioning teams during equipment energisation and start-up.
  • Monitor structural behaviour during load testing and operational testing.
  • Investigate and resolve structural issues identified during commissioning.
  • Provide engineering recommendations for field modifications when required.
  • Capture, document, organize and archive relevant information using defined procedures and automated tools.
  • Analyze problems, compare alternative solutions, identify influencing factors and use logic and intuition to reach conclusions.
  • Communicate ideas, information and needs, deliver helpful feedback, make oral presentations and write reports needed for the work.
  • Assist with engineering problem resolution, drafting and writing specifications, and report unusual engineering issues to senior staff.
  • Troubleshoot typical technical problems using standard procedures and vendor-specific diagnostic guides, tools and utilities.
  • Design 3D models using appropriate software and work with standard 3D software features.

What you'll need

  • Minimum of 10 years of industry experience in engineering/design execution and associated applications.
  • Significant, demonstrated results leading structural design efforts supporting industrial gas turbine packaging and associated gas compression and power generation projects and BOP systems engineering and design.
