Job Details
Senior Marine Propulsion Engineer
Location: On Site| Department: Engineering | Date: February 2025
Are you a highly skilled Marine Propulsion Engineer with expertise in hydrodynamics, CFD modeling, and propeller design? Do you thrive on solving complex engineering challenges to improve marine propulsion efficiency? If so, we want you to join our team!
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Marine Propulsion Engineer to lead the design and analysis of high-performance marine propellers. In this role, you will apply advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods and work closely with manufacturing and testing teams to optimize propulsion system performance.
Key Responsibilities
? Design and analyze marine propellers using CFD software (Star-CCM ) and numerical methods
? Develop and validate computational models for propeller performance prediction
? Optimize designs for efficiency, cavitation performance, and structural integrity
? Collaborate with manufacturing teams to ensure designs are practical and producible
? Provide engineering leadership and guidance to junior team members
? Analyze real-world performance data to improve future designs
? Evaluate structural designs of propellers, struts, and rudders using FEA (ABAQUS)
? Author technical reports and present solutions to clients
What You'll Bring
Master's or Ph.D. in Naval Architecture, Marine Engineering, or a related field
5 years of experience in marine propulsion system design
Strong expertise in hydrodynamics and computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
Proficiency in Star-CCM and numerical analysis tools
Knowledge of propeller performance optimization and marine propulsion systems
Strong problem-solving, technical writing, and communication skills
Preferred Qualifications (Bonus Points!)
? Ph.D. in a related field
? Experience with cavitation analysis and testing
? Knowledge of propeller manufacturing processes
? Programming skills in Python, MATLAB, or similar languages
? Experience with classification society rules (ABS, DNV, NAVSEA, etc.)
? Project management experience
Work Environment
Office-based role with occasional shop floor visits
PPE required in manufacturing areas
Potential exposure to machine shop conditions (noise, metal particles, etc.)
