What is a Graduate Offshore Engineer job?

A Graduate Offshore Engineer is an entry-level engineering role focused on offshore projects, such as oil and gas platforms, wind farms, and marine structures. They assist senior engineers in design, analysis, and project execution while gaining hands-on experience in offshore operations. Responsibilities may include structural assessments, installation planning, and safety evaluations. The role often involves working both in an office and offshore environments, requiring a strong technical background and problem-solving skills. It serves as a pathway to becoming a specialized offshore engineer in the energy or marine industries.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Graduate Offshore Engineer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Graduate Offshore Engineer, a candidate typically needs an engineering degree (usually in mechanical, civil, or marine engineering), strong analytical skills, and fundamental knowledge of offshore operations. Familiarity with industry-standard software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and offshore structural analysis tools, as well as certifications like BOSIET (Basic Offshore Safety Induction and Emergency Training), are often required. Excellent teamwork, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication are key soft skills in this position. These skills and qualifications are critical to ensuring safety, technical accuracy, and collaboration in complex offshore environments.

What does a typical work schedule look like for a Graduate Offshore Engineer, and how often will I be required to work offshore?

As a Graduate Offshore Engineer, your work schedule can vary depending on the specific project and employer, but it often consists of rotational shifts—such as two weeks offshore followed by two weeks onshore or off. This means you'll spend concentrated periods on an offshore platform, where you'll work alongside multidisciplinary teams on project delivery, inspections, maintenance, and safety checks. When not offshore, you'll typically be based in an office environment, supporting project planning, reporting, and engineering design tasks. This rotation provides valuable hands-on experience and helps build an understanding of both site operations and project management in the offshore industry.

Job description

Job Description
We are seeking a Marine Engineer or Naval Architect to own the design, analysis, and deployment of our smart buoy platform. This is a highly interdisciplinary role focused on hydrodynamics, station-keeping, structural design, and real-world ocean performance.
You will lead the development of a dynamically positioning system that supports AUV docking, offshore charging, and data transfer, operating reliably in challenging sea states. This role is ideal for a strong graduate, Master's student, or PhD candidate looking for hands-on ownership of a full ocean system, from concept through field deployment.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Buoy & System Design
  • Design and develop MOBY's smart buoy platform for offshore deployment
  • Own hull form, structural layout, and subsystem integration (power, comms, docking interface)

Hydrodynamics & Seakeeping
  • Perform seakeeping analysis to evaluate buoy motion response across sea states
  • Model and optimize system behavior for docking stability and operational uptime
  • Analyze wave-body interactions and minimize relative motion for subsea operations

Mooring
  • Design and analyze mooring systems for various deployment environments
  • Perform load analysis for mooring lines, anchors, and structural components

Powering & Dynamic Positioning
  • Estimate power requirements for station-keeping, onboard systems, and charging
  • Support development of station-keeping strategies
  • Work closely with controls/software teams on DP integration

Modeling & Simulation
  • Build and maintain CAD models (Rhino or similar)
  • Perform simulations for hydrodynamics, loads, and system behavior
  • Support rapid iteration between design and field validation

Field Testing & Operations
  • Support offshore deployments and system validation
  • Analyze field data to refine models and improve performance
  • Contribute to operational planning and logistics

Requirements
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Degree (or pursuing) in Naval Architecture, Marine Engineering, Ocean Engineering, or related field
  • Strong fundamentals in hydrodynamics, stability, and marine systems design
  • Experience with seakeeping and/or mooring analysis
  • Proficiency in CAD tools (e.g., Rhino or similar)
  • Understanding of ocean environments and offshore operations
  • Hands-on engineering mindset with ability to build, test, and debug systems

PREFERRED
  • Graduate-level research (MS or PhD) in a relevant field
  • Experience with:
    • Mooring design tools (OrcaFlex, ProteusDS, etc.)
    • Seakeeping analysis (WAMIT, AQWA, or similar)
    • Small vessel or offshore system design
    • Marine robotics
    • Ocean deployments or field experience
    • Dynamic positioning systems
    • Marine power systems (batteries, solar, hybrid systems)
    • Subsea systems and sensors (acoustic modems, CTD, imaging sonar)

Benefits
  • Ownership of a critical ocean system from concept to deployment
  • Competitive pay
  • Hands-on work in real marine environments
  • Rapid iteration between design, simulation, and field testing
  • Small, highly technical team with broad system exposure
  • Opportunity to shape next-generation ocean infrastructure
