Stress Engineer | Naval Defence | 3-Year Fixed-Term Contract
Ready to take on complex engineering challenges where your analysis will have a real impact? We’re looking for a Stress Engineer to join a specialist Naval engineering team, supporting high-profile UK defence projects and working alongside experienced engineers across mechanical integrity, design, and simulation.
You’ll use advanced analytical and finite element techniques to assess components against fatigue, buckling, plastic collapse, shock loading, vibration, heat transfer, and more.
What you’ll be doing:
- Building detailed FE models from CAD assemblies
- Carrying out structural, fatigue, and thermal analysis
- Assessing components for operational and shock loads
- Supporting weld design and strength assessments
- Identifying design improvements through analysis
- Producing clear technical reports and presentations
- Contributing to design reviews and customer meetings
