Perform engineering analyses for in-place, towing, and installation of mooring and anchoring systems.
Review compliance of design and calculation results with applicable international codes, company standards, and client requirements.
Plan, prepare, and specify the necessary equipment and procedures for installation of mooring and anchoring systems.
Collaborate with internal stakeholders (EPMs, structural/geotechnical, equipment, hull, and drafting teams) and external clients and contractors/vendors to align technical deliverables with project objectives.
Perform mooring system conceptual design, frequency-domain, and time-domain dynamic analysis.
Assess global performance and motion response of floating systems using metocean, environmental condition and oceanographic data.
Develop technical documentation including load reports, heading analysis, fatigue assessments, and motion studies.
Develop installation procedures including rigging / fit-up checks, task plans and equipment lists including development of specialized installation aids.
Review subcontracted hydrodynamic studies, model testing campaigns, and numerical analysis.

Bachelor’s degree in Ocean, Offshore, Civil, or Mechanical Engineering (Master’s preferred).
Minimum of 5-10 years of experience in the offshore oil & gas industry, with at least 3 years of specific experience in mooring system analysis and installation of FPSOs and other floating offshore structures.
Experience with deepwater mooring systems and floating production facilities (FPSO, FLNG, Semi, TLP, etc.).
Good knowledge of mooring and anchor systems installation, preferably with offshore experience.
Proficiency in industry-standard software such as OrcaFlex, HydroStar, Ariane, SIMA, MOSES, DeepC, or equivalent.
Proficiency in developing pre- and post-processing tools with Python, Matlab and programming experience for process automation.
Experience in developing and analyzing mooring systems during Conceptual, Pre-FEED, FEED, or EPCI(O) phases.
Familiarity with international design standards (API RP 2SK, ISO 19901-7, DNVGL-RP-E301, etc.).
