Civil Engineer
IHCantabria, through its Marine Energy and Offshore Engineering group, has developed during the last years an important scientific-technical activity in the field of offshore wind energy and in particular, in the analysis of the fluid-structures-soil interaction of structures fixed to the bottom for the foundation of offshore turbines. It has promoted scientific excellence and its transfer with a multidisciplinary and collaborative approach, driving innovation to contribute to accelerate the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), mainly SDG No. 7 with the aim of contributing to the development of new sources of clean and safe energy.
The successful candidate will join a young, dynamic, competitive and international environment, within the framework of a reference research centre, in constant growth, where he/she will develop a solid scientific-technical career linked to the development of disruptive methodologies for the implementation of anti-scour solutions for offshore wind.
The successful candidate will collaborate on leading projects, in collaboration with national and international industry leaders, in the development of essentially the following activities:
- Design of integral solutions for scour protection in offshore structures.
- Development of protection elements and methodologies.
- Implementation of methodologies for the design of scour protection.
- Numerical modelling and experimental analysis of the hydrodynamics of offshore structures.
It will be specifically required the possession of a University Master’s Degree specialised in Coastal and Port Engineering, Civil Engineering or Geotechnical Engineering.
