Do you want to be a part of complex Engineering Studies for transmission systems for Offshore Wind Farms and other renewable offshore projects?

AND would you furthermore like to work with new technology challenges that support the world’s transition towards a greener future? Then this is your opportunity for an exciting career within our Offshore Wind and Renewables Projects.

At Semco Maritime, you will be part of an evolving and dynamic working culture. Add to this a challenging and exciting workday where results are created together based on a high level of professionalism and dedication. We win as a team!

Semco Maritime is an attractive workplace with an informal environment based on a high degree of freedom and trust, as we believe this unleashes high performance better.

You will join a team of highly specialized and motivated employees located in our Engineering Studies and HVDC team in the Renewables business area. We are world leading within offshore high voltage transmission systems and focus our powers on AC connections as well as DC and on top floating technologies. Our Offshore Wind markets include Europe, Asia, and the USA, which means that you can expect to be involved in projects worldwide.

As our team is already spread around several locations you may choose between working from our:

• Head office in Esbjerg, DK
• Ballerup office in the greater Copenhagen area, DK

• Gdynia office, PL
• Aberdeen office, UK
• Or remotely if you’re the right candidate not located near one of our offices

The job will involve limited travelling to other Semco Maritime offices, sub-suppliers, and customers.

Areas of responsibility

The backbone in our Renewables business area is the EPC(I) wind farm substation projects. In addition, based on our vast in-house knowledge and experience we support our customers in the project development phase finding the most optimal solutions for bringing the energy to shore. This is where you will be our new Electrical Engineer and future specialist for engineering studies projects.

You will be a part of engineering the design of the most optimal electrical architecture based on topics such as cost of construction (CAPEX) vs. cost of operation (OPEX) optimization, availability, and redundancy – and guiding our client in making the most optimum overall decision.

The studies typically cover the entire transmission system i.e., export and array cables layout plus onshore and offshore substations design and structure.

Your key roles and tasks will include:

• Leading concept, feasibility, and due diligence projects – focus technologies are AC transmission, DC transmission, floating substations and offshore power2x
• Leading the design of overall system architecture, single line diagrams, HV components specifications etc.
• Active involvement in design and calculations as well as grid code compliances
• Leading power system studies and load flow calculations
• Lead electrical engineering activities as a generalist – such as building equipment and solution specifications, concept designs, substation layout considerations, cost estimations, technical risk assessments etc.
• Executing development tasks in general (improve power studies, concept studies etc.)
• Engage stakeholders internally and externally

Your profile

We expect you have a relevant technical education as bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering or similar with experience in high voltage electrical power systems.

• You will enjoy problem solving and show great attention to detail and be keen to develop your existing knowledge and skills.
• You think logically, willing to self-learn and research, and take a creative approach to problem solving.
• You will also possess excellent IT skills, programming skills and have good communication skills.
• You will be innovative and creative
• You are a self-starter and able to work in small teams.
• You are resilient and able to deal with ambiguity

Experience from the utility sector or offshore wind industries is a clear advantage, but not an ultimate requirement. It is a clear advantage if you have demonstrated previous experience with offshore wind power transmission concept and feasibility studies.

You can demonstrate ability to communicate excellent in English, both verbally and written. As a person you must hold an extrovert trustworthy and serious personality and be able to exert influence when needed. A good sense of humor and collaborative nature is always appreciated in Semco Maritime.
