Job Description :

Quest Global is an organization at the forefront of innovation and one of the worlds fastest growing engineering services firms with deep domain knowledge and recognized expertise in the top OEMs across seven industries. We are a twenty-five-year-old company on a journey to becoming a centenary one, driven by aspiration, hunger and humility.

We are looking for humble geniuses, who believe that engineering has the potential to make the impossible, possible; innovators, who are not only inspired by technology and innovation, but also perpetually driven to design, develop, and test as a trusted partner for Fortune 500 customers.

As a team of remarkably diverse engineers, we recognize that what we are really engineering is a brighter future for us all. If you want to contribute to meaningful work and be part of an organization that truly believes when you win, we all win, and when you fail, we all learn, then we’re eager to hear from you.

The achievers and courageous challenge-crushers we seek, have the following characteristics and skills:

Roles & Responsibilities:

• You will be part of integrated Site Assessment and Ground Engineering team developing fit-for-purpose ground models and ground-engineering for bid assessment through design, construction, and operation.
• The ground models and engineering jointly developed by acquiring, interpreting, and engineering with ground data are a critical part of wind farm development. The role is fundamental to identifying the optimum locations and engineering solutions for offshore wind developments. It requires collaboration with engineering, and construction disciplines to safely deliver site investigations, foundation design and ultimately foundation installation.
• The focus of the role is the geotechnical aspects of site-assessment related to the design, construction, and installation of foundations for Wind Turbine Generators (WTG) and associated infrastructure (offshore and onshore substations, cables) in support of low carbon energy projects and operations.
• Be part of a specialist group providing geotechnical engineering expertise across offshore wind portfolio from bid through development to operations.
• Work within an integrated geoscience team integrating geotechnical data to help build fit for purpose integrated ground models for wind farm engineering.
• Assist quantification of (geo) hazards risk and opportunities to relevant stakeholders to ensure they are understood and controlled across the business.
• Provide quantitative analysis to help select offshore wind foundation concept for fixed and floating foundations with due consideration of technical feasibility, ease of construction, transportation to site, installation challenges, risks, and life-of-field cost.
• Ensure safe and cost-efficient design and integrity management throughout asset life in accordance with industry technical practices and standards.
• Develop relationships with third party suppliers, contractors, and other partners.
• Actively contribute to technology development and to the wider geotechnical engineering community of practice to share knowledge and findings.

Required Skills (Technical Competency):

• Civil/ Geotechnical engineering degree.
  • 5 years or more of relevant industry experience
  • Appropriate professional accreditation
  • Knowledge of industry codes and standards.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills both oral and written.
  • Proven experience in Offshore Wind ground engineering for a wide range of ground engineering services including foundations e.g. Monopiles, suction caissons, driven piles, drilled and grouted piles, shallow foundations (inc. Gravity base structures, and Jack-up units) and Cables e.g. burial-risk assessments, thermal response, landfall and onshore design.
  • Proven experience in planning and implementation of site investigations, characterization and ground modelling, and related development of Basis’ of design.

Desired Skills:

• Masters/ PhD in relevant engineering discipline
• Knowledge of the variety of site-survey data types commonly used in different settings.
• Geotechnical Site Survey acquisition design, oversight, and QC, and/or offshore experience on site survey vessels.
• Advanced CPTu interpretation expertise.
• Data Integration (in particular of Geophysical, Geotechnical and Geological logs) expertise and familiarization with ground models.
• Coding/ Scripting expertise
• Fundamental Project Management Skills
