Principle Power Inc is looking for a Structural Engineer (marine/hull structural engineering) to join its team and help design the next generation of its floating platforms for wind turbines: the WindFloat. The candidate will be part of PPI's team of structural engineers, and will work toward commercialization of the WindFloat. The structural group splits its focus between current designs, for specific site conditions, and R&D to optimize the performance, fabrication and ultimately the cost of the WindFloats in future projects. Design tasks for current projects includes preliminary sizing of steel structures, strength, buckling and fatigue analysis and detailing of the structures. During design, engineers interface with designers to produce packages of drawings for certification and fabrication. Structural engineers follow closely the fabrication planning and execution phases to provide support as necessary.
