Senior Design Engineer -Applications

As a Senior Design Engineer, you will oversee complex projects, mentor junior engineers, and ensure high-quality designs meet customer specifications and industry standards. Some hybrid working is possible, though you will need to be close to the business during the initial stages., * Lead the design of subsea technology combining functions such as breathing gases, fluids, electrical power, communication, hydraulics, and pneumatics, for seismic, defence, subsea technology (e.g., Diving)

• Select and size functional components (hoses, cables, optical fibres), and determine lay-up, insulation and jacket materials, braiding, armouring, and overall configuration to meet customer specifications, industry standards, and in-house requirements.
• Write test specifications and qualification procedures for the subsea scenarios such as tension, torsion, compression, and cyclic bending, when required.
• Provide technical support to production teams during manufacturing to ensure quality and conformity to design.
• Investigate and resolve cable-related field failures or performance issues, implementing robust design improvements.

·Bachelor's or higher degree in engineering, physics, or mathematics, or similar

·Experienced senior engineering designer using 2D CAD or 3DCAD / and /or solidworks

·Strong understanding of subsea technology, including seismic energy, renewable, and marine/diving applications in high-pressure environments.

·Sound knowledge of electrical theory (voltage stress, resistance, voltage drop, current rating, and heating effects), hydraulics/pneumatics (pressure drop, fluid mechanics), and mechanical engineering (materials, stress/strain, fatigue).

·Understanding of electrical cable design and construction, including cable geometry, helix angles, lay-lengths, and copper specifications.

·Proficient in 2D CAD software (preferably AutoCAD); proficiency in 3D CAD (SolidWorks) advantageous.

·Preferred: Exposure to ISO 9001 quality systems and experience in corrective action resolution.

·Experience with engineering documentation control systems (SolidWorks EPDM advantageous).
