Your responsibilities
Delivering structural integrity and structural analysis related assessments to the business. Supporting the development of projects in tandem with other team members. Working with a high degree of autonomy including the execution, if required, of any and all computer modelling, independent calculations and to produce written reports, to a high standard of English containing the appropriate advice for the customer. Proactively driving through projects to completion. Liaising with customers and colleagues, such as inspection teams, to obtain necessary information for the assessments. Delivering projects and work assignments to time and quality and within an agreed budget. Providing assessment of defective components, which may include, but is not restricted to: pressure vessels, pipework, headers and drums, valve bodies, steam chests, rotors, blades, gas turbine components. Your profile
Uniper will consider applicants at different stages in their career development and is interested in hearing from candidates ranging from a developmental role through to individuals who are highly experienced. The successful candidate is therefore likely to possess the following: All Candidates A successful candidate will have an engineering degree in Mechanical, Aeronautical or equivalent (candidates with a Physics degree will also be considered provided that they have the relevant experience, but Civil / Structural Engineering candidates will not be considered). Strong written and verbal communication skills including the preparation of detailed technical reports and presentations. Experience of using finite element, i.e. Abaqus / Ansys (Abaqus preferred), or the ability to develop this skill quickly within the role. Development Role Candidates It is expected that the candidate will be relatively early in their career that includes delivering finite element and fracture mechanics based assessments of components following R6 / R5 procedures, or equivalent, e.g. API 579 / ASME FFS-1, BS 7910 and / or associated software packages. Critically the successful candidate is expected to be able to work as a supervised practitioner. Ideally, the assessment experience will include components operating in the creep regime, but this is not a requirement for development role. In addition to the above, ideally around a third of the successful candidate’s relevant experience should have been built working with components from pressure parts, gas turbine or steam turbines, i.e. components relevant to the advertised role. Experienced Candidates As for the Development Role, but with the following experience: Ideally, experienced candidates will have acquired the relevant level of experience from successfully delivering integrity assessments, to be a self-sufficient practitioner requiring limited supervision within the role. Additionally, a minimum of half of the candidate’s relevant experience should ideally include the delivery of integrity assessments for components operating in the creep regime. Advanced Practitioner Candidates An advanced practitioner the candidate is expected to have accumulated significant hands on experience delivering finite element and fracture mechanics based assessments of components with a minimum of half the candidate’s relevant experience including the delivery of fitness for service assessments for components operating in the creep regime. It is expected that the successful candidate will be able to complete the key aspects of the role with no, or very limited, supervision. Desirable: Chartered Engineer status Knowledge of conventional Power Generation (Coal and / or Gas-fired plant) Experience of undertaking Remaining Life Assessments of pressure parts and rotating plant Able to interpret and extract relevant information from engineering drawings, design calculations and NDT defect reports Coding knowledge, e.g. Fortran, Visual Basic
