Primary Purpose of Position:
Specialising in the design, construction, and maintenance of ships, boats, and marine structures. The naval architect will have strong technical expertise and problem-solving abilities to oversee projects from concept to completion, ensuring safety, efficiency, and compliance with industry standards.
Main Duties & Responsibilities:
Design and Development:
Create and develop innovative offshore and marine designs, focusing on performance, stability, and safety against appropriate marine and offshore codes. Technical Analysis:
Conduct structural and hydrodynamic analyses using simulation software and other technical tools. Project Management:
Oversee various stages of design development, coordinating with cross-functional teams, suppliers, and clients to ensure timelines and budgets are met. Compliance and Safety:
Ensure all designs and construction methods meet regulatory standards and safety protocols. Documentation:
Prepare detailed technical reports, blueprints, and documentation as needed for stakeholders and regulatory bodies. Collaboration:
Work closely with engineers, drafters, and fabrication teams to bring designs to life and troubleshoot any project challenges. Skills & Abilities: Technical Proficiency:
Strong knowledge of naval architecture principles, structural engineering, and hydrodynamics. Software Expertise:
Proficiency in CAD (e.g., AutoCAD, SOLIDWORKS), FEA simulation software (ANSYS, FES2000, STAAD), and understanding of marine simulation software (e.g., ORCAFlex). Problem-Solving:
Ability to analyse complex issues and develop effective, innovative solutions. Project Management:
Strong organisational skills to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines. Attention to Detail:
Exceptional precision in design, analysis, and documentation. Communication Skills:
