Do you want to join the team responsible for pushing the boundaries of geotechnical design for offshore wind turbine foundations?  

Join us and become a Senior Geotechnical Engineer in the Geotechnical Engineering department where you'll be responsible for a wide range of geotechnical activities related to the planning, development, design and construction of offshore wind farms. You'll be part of a large and diverse team of 25 Geotechnical Engineers from more than 14 different countries.   

Your key tasks will be to:

As part of the role, you'll be the geotechnical expert on an array of projects related to offshore geotechnical engineering, including large offshore wind farm developments, R&D projects (in collaboration with both internal and external parties) and in-house software development. You'll take ownership of several complex tasks and will be expected to actively engage yourself in technical discussions and challenge the status quo.  

Your competences include that you: 

• have 5 – 10 years of experience within the field of offshore geotechnical engineering 
• hold a MSc or a PhD in civil/geotechnical engineering (or equivalent) 
• have a strong understanding of soil-structure interaction
