Position Title = Senior Mechanical Technology Engineer
Education Required = MSME or PhD
Years Experience Required = 10+
Position Description = Sr. Engineer with 10+ years experience with complex Pressure Vessel Engineering Analysis
- Pressure Vessel and FEA (using ALGOR) experience required.
- Specialize in stress analysis; Pipe Stress skills a plus.
- The individual should have in-depth knowledge of applicable ASME, API, ASTM codes and stress analysis software
(Caesar II), NOZPRO, etc. Knowledge of FEA using ALGOR required.
- Mechanical Engineer with multi-discipline experience
- Familiar with different metallurgies
- Experience with repair and inspection of pressure vessels
Duties = Plans, schedules and conducts broad and/or technically complex engineering assignments requiring judgment, independent evaluation, selection and significant adaptation and deviation from standard techniques and procedures. May plan and coordinate the work of less experienced engineers. Serves as a technical expert in meetings with customers and vendors. Travels to project meetings and job sites as necessary. Develops new techniques and solutions and suggests and justifies product and work process improvements. Independently performs most assignments. Receives technical guidance only on very unusual or complex problems.
Overview of Engineering Technology
This position is in the Engineering Technology group. Engineering Technology acts like an internal consulting group that focuses on solving the most difficult engineering design, stress analysis, and materials of construction problems. The staff of experienced engineers tackles specific challenges that come up in the design of petrochemical refineries, and develops standards for the rest of the company to follow. Candidates for Engineering Technology positions will often have 10 years of experience or more, and will have had extensive exposure to a variety of engineering problems related to pipe stress (with particular focus on vibrations) and pressure vessels, and will have knowledge of engineering standards and specifications related to refineries. Strong FEA skills (using ALGOR) are essential.
Candidates for these positions will stand out because of their desire for a variety of engineering problems and their broad range of knowledge. Ideally candidates will have E&C backgrounds, but more likely they will have come up through consulting companies where they faced the most challenging and unique problems. Talented engineers will be drawn to these positions by the exciting and varied work typically only offered by consulting, and by the stability and growth opportunity offered by an established E&C company. Consultants that are getting burned out on the stress of unpredictable work and the constant pressure to sell may enjoy moving into this role. Also, while consultants may be required to do most of their work in the field after a problem has occurred, engineers at the company spend their time in the home office solving problems during the initial design phase. While Masters degrees are nearly essential, and PhD's are helpful, candidates must have extensive hands-on experience. Academic experience alone is not enough. PE licenses are a benefit, but not required.
