At SeaTwirl, we are revolutionizing floating offshore wind with our unique vertical-axis wind turbine technology – and we want you to be part of our journey.

About the Role

This role is a fixed-term opportunity, ideal for those who enjoy project-based work with clear goals and timelines. As a Structural Engineer, you will conduct structural evaluations of everything from the large SPAR to smaller components to ensure the safety and reliability of the floating wind turbine system. Your focus will include SPAR, towers, generator housing and components to mechanical drive train with an aim to refine designs and optimize performance for offshore environments.

As a member of our team, you will collaborate closely with your colleagues to deliver our unique product and help create a better future. You will play a key role in developing the next generation of floating wind turbines, ensuring structural integrity and optimizing critical components.

Your responsibilities will include

• Structural verification using FEM, hand calculations, and in-house tools
• Design assessments of steel and composite structures
• Fatigue and buckling analysis
• Verifying structural components such as stringers, watertight bulkheads, stiffener-reinforced plates, and bolted connections
• Scripting engineering tasks in Python
• Preparing technical reports in English
• Collaborating closely with designers and classification societies

Eric Lorentzon, Head of Foundation and Mooring.

"SeaTwirl's future looks promising. We have a new turbine with two-blades that allows installation with smaller ships and cranes, which has been well received. SeaTwirl’s "Verti-Go" project has also been selected by Horizon Europe as the successful applicant to start grant preparation for a 15 million Euro funding call, which entails a full scale demonstration of a 2MW SeaTwirl turbine, including the complete project development of design, fabrication, installation and operation. "
