Bring a breath of fresh air into your professional life! Are you looking for a job, where you can be a trusted voice to tackle global transformations? The role is open to candidates interested in being located in Hamburg or Copenhagen. Would you like to thrive in a dynamic, international environment with lots of exciting challenges every day? Do you want to be part of a team of skilled colleagues and in a global organization where we work as one team? We invite qualified Senior Engineers looking for opportunities to join our team to help deliver design review and certification activities for the most interesting projects related to offshore wind energy facilities.

Renewables Certification (RC) belongs to the business area of Energy Systems (ES) with more than 4000 people globally. Renewables Certification has the global responsibility for Type Certification (TC), Component Certification (CC), and Project Certification (PC) for Renewables within ES. Currently, Renewables Certification consists of 300+ experts with locations in Beijing, Boston, Copenhagen, Dresden, Esbjerg, Hamburg, Høvik, London, Busan, Shanghai, Taipei, and Yokohama. Renewables Certification is the global market leader in the Renewables Certification market and is involved in 80% of Project Certification for offshore wind parks including offshore substations in the world.

For the Project Certification department, we are currently looking for a Senior Geotechnical Expert with a strong profile and a keen interest in working with renewable energy. Project Certification delivers services related to certification and verification primarily for Offshore Wind Farms, transformer stations, and onshore support structures for Wind turbines as well as services including wave and tidal and other novel technologies via technology qualification. Activities cover all steps in the certification process from review of early designs to design verification, fabrication surveillance, commissioning, and periodic inspection of installations in operation as well as project management.

Our team and the wider renewables certification have extensive experience with offshore projects and have worked with 80% of global offshore wind projects to date. We have an informal and humorous tone among us combined with a professional, diverse, and international working environment. The candidates joining the team will be provided with excellent support to improve their technical knowledge, project management skills, and understanding of offshore projects.

As a Geotechnical Engineer, you will be:

Responsible for the delivery of technical work and managing a variety of exciting offshore projects including floating wind. Your role will be to verify and certify these, following the relevant international standards, reviewing geotechnical data, ground models, and design soil profiles, and identifying any related risks or geotechnical hazards

Performing calculations for soil-structure interactions, effects on cyclic loading on soil behavior, earthquake, soil liquefaction and scour assessment for monopiles, jacket piles, suction buckets, gravity-based structure foundations, where 2D and 3D Finite Element Analysis is often used.

Performing foundation analyses to identify the appropriate in-place capacities and stiffnesses that would be used in the assessments of the structure and integrated load calculations. - You will be engaging in constructive technical discussions with designers and developers of the offshore wind industry providing value and de-risking the project

Developing your technical skills alongside our world-leading experts, on a variety of high-profile global engineering projects, on behalf of some of the industry’s leading organizations

The job provides the opportunity to participate in most of the ongoing offshore wind projects around the world, as well as technical qualifications of concepts, prototypes, and Joint Industry Projects related to geotechnics and participate in the elaboration of DNV technical standards.

You will manage your projects on your own, supported by mentors and other senior engineers as well as participate in developing the team's technical capabilities.

Numerical analysis using FEM for soil structure interaction

Offshore structure installation of monopiles, jacket piles, and suction buckets

Offshore substation foundation

Anchorage and station-keeping systems for floating wind

Seabed cables, seabed morphology, cable burial risk assessment, and trenchability

Earthquake and seismic soil design including liquefaction assessment

Advance soil testing and its interpretation

Effects of dynamic loading on soil strength and stiffness

Computational geotechnical calculations and scripting optimization of processes
