Are you enthusiastic about the green transition and making renewable energy solutions happen? Do you want to work closely with major global developers and support the development of the future offshore wind projects? Are you equipped to lead great projects and great people, ensuring operational and technical quality? Then, here is your chance to convert aspirations into actions!

Turn challenges into sustainable solutions

The green transition is rapidly accelerating. COWI is a pacesetter in sustainability as we move away from all fossil fuel projects. To solve the energy challenges of tomorrow, we are looking for a Senior Hydrodynamic Engineer to join our Offshore Wind team. We are 175 enthusiastic colleagues working alongside our customers on some of most significant projects in Offshore Wind. And we are thrilled to have contributed to projects like Empire Wind (North America), Changhua Phase 1 (Taiwan) and Formosa 2 (Taiwan).

Your key activities will be:
  • Providing technical expertise and leadership to the project team as discipline lead for projects worldwide, from feasibility stage through detailed design
  • Interfacing and coordinating with other engineering disciplines
  • Finding structural design solutions in accordance with project requirements
  • Providing fabrication and construction support in accordance with project requirements
  • Preparation of high-quality analyses, reports, and checking of drawings
  • Contributing alongside experts to internal technical development
  • Contribute to the development of COWI's technical execution model for Offshore Wind
  • Co-create with clients and building relationships with clients and other stakeholders
  • Participate and contribute to internal training aimed at improving your skills and of younger colleagues in the offshore wind industry

Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future.
The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways, but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.

On top of that, you will have:
  • B.SC., M.Sc. or PhD in structural, marine, or mechanical engineering and significant experience with design of Offshore Wind or Offshore Oil & Gas jacket substructures
  • Minimum 10 years of experience with structural design, numerical analyses and load assessments
  • Knowledge of rules and regulations, for example DNV, IEC or ISO
  • Proficiency in English (oral and written)
  • Outgoing and customer-oriented attitude with great collaboration skills
  • Competence in SESAM and/or Bladed is considered an advantage
  • Experience with automatization/programming in e.g. Python is an advantage

COWI has customers and projects that may require security clearance at various levels. There may therefore be requirements for security clearance in some projects/positions.

A place to work and so much more

At COWI, we work together with our customers to shape a sustainable and liveable world. We do it by applying our knowledge and curiosity - and sometimes even our courage - to create the solutions the world needs today to enable a better tomorrow. That is why we say no to fossil-based projects and aspire to have 100 % of our revenue come from activities that move our customers towards sustainability.

We value differences and development and cultivate an environment of belonging and having fun. Because that is what brings out the best in you, at work and at home.

With offices primarily located in Scandinavia, the UK, North America and India, we are currently 8000 people who bring their expertise in engineering, architecture, energy and environment into play.

What we also offer:
  • Excellent opportunities for personal development through a personal development plan, COWI Academy and the COWI Connect mentoring scheme
  • National and international collaboration across the organization and different disciplines. We have approx. 70 different professional networks and knowledge-sharing communities in COWI
  • An internal mobility programme committed to supporting you in exploring opportunities in COWI
  • Flexible working hours with a home office arrangement
  • Competitive salary and benefits
  • 26 days annual leave and paid leave between Christmas and New Year
  • Company cabins
  • Frequent social events
  • An active company sports team offering a wide range of sports and activities
  • Last, but not least, a good working environment. It is important for us to be generous and stand up for each other, which is also reflected employee surveys
