ENGINEER - RESEARCH ENGINEER - Ocean Simulation Lab

The Ocean Simulation Labs focuses primarily on verification and qualification testing of subsea components or structures used for Oil & Gas, Naval, research or recreational purposes.

• Perform test setup, execution, and reporting support to ensure safe and intended operation of subsea equipment.
  
• Provide detailed design of test hardware, generate drawings, and oversee fabrication.
  
• Interact with customers to interpret work scopes, define deliverables, and offer solutions to best achieve desired outcomes.
  
• Provide support to project managers for tests requiring elevated pressures, low/high temperatures, and various test media.
  
• Conduct engineering assessments upon potential failure of components or items and offer value-added services to address.
  

• Generate project reports, test procedures, rough estimates, and formal proposals to coworkers and clients.
  
• Interface with customers and team members to ensure timely completion of short and long-term tasks.
  
• Research applicable codes, standards, or customer specifications to ensure test parameters are being met.
  
• Identify vendors and source components/materials required for project performance that may include tools, instrumentation, and other consumables.
  
• Monitor and manage costs of small scale projects and/or subtasks of larger programs.
  

• Requires a Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Civil Engineering, or directly related engineering degree with related experience.
  
• 0-5 years: Pressure generating equipment, mechanical design, instrumentation used for lab experiments (pressure, temperature, displacement, strain), basic controls and/or data acquisition equipment (LabVIEW preferred). Some coding/programming experience is a plus.
  
• Experience with Solidworks and/or PTC products is preferred.
  
• Must have excellent writing and verbal communication skills with some experience in technical presentations.
  
• A valid/clear driver's license is required.
