Mechanical Integrity Engineer

Job Description The Mechanical Integrity Engineer support the Design function by undertaking analysis of the proposed designs to ensure that they are robust and that they meet requirements. The Mechanical Integrity Engineer also makes recommendations to optimise the design and applies Robust Engineering (Design for Process Excellence) principles. Key Accountabilities - To conduct Aeros/Thermal, Acoustic and Structure Mechanical Design and Analysis. This includes selection and generation as well as involvement in further development of numerical models, use of numeral calculation methods, developing of interdisciplinary agreed boundary conditions and implementation into own models as well as into models of other disciplines (e.g. performance), plausibility check of boundary conditions, execution and analysis of numerical model calculations, understanding calculations as well as derive suggestion for improvements. - To conduct Aeros/Thermal, Acoustic and Structure Mechanical experiments. This includes preparation of experiment specification for tests on test rigs and engines, supervision and support of experiments, plausibility check of results during the execution of the test, analysis and interpretation of test results and comparison with analytical and/or empirical models. - To resolve problems through evaluative judgements. Analyses factual information from multiple sources, interprets results and identifies effective solutions by applying their own technical knowledge, expertise and engineering judgement. Is responsible for defined technical packages/investigations of work providing delivery against programme milestones within agreed cost, timescale and quality requirements. - To be a point of contact within a given engineering discipline and to share subject matter knowledge across the function. This may include providing advisory services to designated customers, influencing their peer group, representing senior departmental staff and acting as advisor/coach on matters where they are technically authoritative. - To understand company business and function objectives and ensure that the work they do supports this. To always act in accordance with both the company values and those associated with being a professional engineer. - To actively promote, encourage and support the identification and implementation of continuous improvement (s of tools, processes and methods) both within and outside their immediate sphere and prompt action across the wider team. Key Experiences and any Qualifications - Bachelor's degree or Master's in Engineering or regional equivalent qualification, or equivalent experience - Strong technical knowledge in mechanical design methodologies and have an understanding of cross-discipline engineering concepts which include but are not limited to manufacturing engineering, aerodynamics, thermodynamics, thermal and mechanical analysis, cost engineering and product definition. - Nuclear Specific - The Mechanical Integrity engineer shall exhibit strong technical knowledge in mechanical design methodologies and have an understanding of and ability to integrate crossdiscipline engineering concepts which include but are not limited to manufacturing engineering, hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, Stress analysis both static and dynamic, fracture and fatigue assessment, cost engineering, Installation & Commission. They shall also undertake a wide range of roles including project and change management, conceptual design, final design verification, support and approval of the final product definition, support manufacturing and integration activities. - An ability to apply logical, analytical and innovative thinking on a range of technical problems and make balanced decisions across technical and business parameters - Knowledge and experience of product integrity / liability and certification frameworks - Membership of a relevant professional body appropriate to region.
