Role details

Job Description Summary

As Structural Design Engineer, you will support design and analysis of structure model of a composite wind turbine blade with accountability & ownership for assigned responsibilities through fundamental understanding of FEA methods & processes. In this role, you will utilize your experience to independently execute FEA activities during different phase of product design by providing clear and timely results. Further, you are expected to develop self-expertise on design and analysis methods & processes for smooth task execution.

Roles and Responsibilities

Own composite structure design & analysis for NPI blade and develop design solutions that are competitive in performance, cost, and quality.
Partner closely with Lead Structural Engineer to deliver FEA results within stringent timeline from predesign phase to implementation in factory.
Perform FEA analysis of composite structure concepts using ABAQUS, PATRAN & In-house tools.
Highlight critical design risks for failure modes related to 3D FE evaluation and suggest mitigation plan.
Ensure documentation of FEA results on final design to ensure fulfilment of all certification and internal design criterions for the blade structure.
Collaborate with Test and Validation centre of excellence to ensure necessary FEA evaluation for Test blade by ensuring all regulatory compliance and internal test requirements.
Support in technical discussions/meetings related to blade structure with customers and/or certification bodies and represent GEV.
Lead and/or participate as a presenter and/or reviewer in structure design reviews.
Contribute towards root cause analysis of blade failures and identify design related corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace or Civil Structural Engineering from a reputed university
2-5 years of experience in a mechanical structural design engineering position
1+ years of experience in composite material structural design and analysis preferably in wind turbine rotor blade
Excellent communication, interpersonal and presentation skills
Global experience with proven ability to work with international and/or cross-functional teams across cultural boundaries
Fluent in English, Verbal & Written

Desired Characteristics

Master's Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace or Civil Engineering with specialization in Structural stream from a reputed university
Solid background in mechanical design with sound engineering fundamentals
Willingness to learn GEV inhouse blade design tools and processes.
Proficient in structural finite element analysis using ABAQUS/PATRAN with focus on results interpretation and presentation for faster design iterations.
Familiarity with GD&T, 2D Drawings, Teamcenter, Work Instructions with some understanding of Product Lifecycle Management
Ability and willingness to learn legacy design processes, safety factors, materials.
Demonstrated ability to work in global & cross functional projects, with timely update to stakeholders on assigned responsibilities
Proactive, self-motivated, and innovative in approach with focus on possibilities than limitations
