Engineer II

The Engineer II performs engineering design review and analysis assignments, usually involving a significant project or several smaller or less complex projects. These projects, by nature of their complexity and difficulty, require the fully competent application of conventional knowledge in a particular field of engineering or science. Through broader and more technically challenging work assignments, will develop a thorough understanding of policies, methods, and procedures. What You Will Do: * With minimal or no supervision, performs detailed engineering review of plans, as assigned, for compliance with applicable Rules, Regulations, and contract commitments. * Offers technical advice to field operations and other technical offices. * Performs work that involves conventional engineering practices but may include moderately complex problems such as the resolution of conflicting design requirements, material standards or coordination of activities among other disciplines. * Proposes new approaches to problems encountered and makes recommendations for changes in methods, procedures, or designs. * Drafts technically accurate and timely reports, and responses to letters, faxes, and other forms of communication. * Interacts with clients to identify and resolve problems around technical expertise. * Prepares accurate and timely weekly reports and billing on all work performed. * Communicates the status of the current workload to all appropriate members of the team to ensure the needs of the clients will be met. * Works as a team member within the group but may work most of the time autonomously. * Implements and maintains ABS Quality System requirements relative to responsibilities after undergoing ABS Quality System training. What You Will Need: Education and Experience * B.S. degree in Civil, Structural Engineering, Naval Architecture, Ocean Engineering, or other related disciplines. Masters / Ph.D. Graduates with no experience may be hired as Engineer II if degrees are specific to the position * The following are requirements for university graduates and experienced engineers from industry (either I or II) for Engineer II; * Education: * Hull backgrounds * B.S. degree in Civil, Structural Engineering, Naval Architecture, Ocean Engineering, or other related disciplines * Masters / PhD Graduates with no experience may be hired as Engineer II if degrees are specific to the position. * Demonstrated computer literacy in engineering software. * Exposed to Finite Element Method (course work or supervised research). * Machinery backgrounds * B.S. degree in Marine, Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or other related disciplines. * Masters / PhD Graduates with no experience may be hired as Engineer II if degrees are specific to the position. * Experienced Engineer from Industry A or B: * Hull * Demonstrated computer literacy in engineering software. * Exposed to Finite Element Method (course work or supervised research). * Ten (10) years or more of related engineering experience in a shipyard, design/consulting office, shipping/oil company, or a classification society or * Professional or chartered engineer license and five (5) years or more of related engineering experience in a shipyard, design/consulting office, shipping/oil company, or a classification society or * Two (2) years as Engineer I. * Machinery * Ten (10) years or more of related engineering experience in a shipyard, design/consulting office, shipping/oil company, or a classification society or * Seagoing engineering license or professional/chartered engineer license and five (5) years or more of related engineering experience in a shipyard, design/consulting office, shipping/oil company, or a classification society or * Two (2) years as Engineer I. Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities * Demonstrated understanding and ability to apply fundamental classification and quality concepts, practices, and procedures. * The ability to identify, analyze and propose solutions to problems (i.e., the competence to demonstrate complex problem-solving skills). * Good command of the English language with the ability to communicate orally and in writing. * Ability to work well with others. * Ability to obtain a working knowledge of the ABS Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental Management Systems. It Would Be Nice If You Had Professional or chartered engineer license. Reporting Relationships: The incumbent reports to a senior level engineer or technical manager.
