DHI is a global specialist advisory and R&D company dedicated to working on challenges within the fields of water, environment and sustainability. Within these fields, we provide a wide range of advisory, digital advisory, research and water governance services as well as leading edge MIKE technologies and products to the market. At DHI, we are constantly looking for passionate and talented people who are eager to join our team.
By joining DHI, you will not only become part of a dynamic and collaborative global team of experts; you will be encouraged and supported to innovate, engage, and grow in your area of expertise. DHI is committed to disseminate our knowledge effectively and across our worldwide network of offices.
As an Expert, your main focus will be on seabed-structure interaction such as scour, scour protection design, cable stabilization, wave structure interaction and seabed mobility. We support clients internationally with a wide range of projects from large infrastructure projects for international clients to minor projects for local clients.
The methods you will apply ranges from desk studies, potentially supported by numerical modelling, to physical model tests. If you have knowledge of all these tools it is great, but otherwise your skilled colleagues will assist you. Most important is your domain knowledge and that you are willing to learn and develop new tools. Your work consists of technical support to our clients during the FEED and design process or validation through 3rd party reviews. The tasks include scoping projects together with clients, writing technical proposals and executing them successfully. Typical tasks could be scour assessments, design of scour protections around offshore wind turbine foundations such as monopiles or jackets, but it could also be around bridge piers.
A key aspect of the role is working with clients and colleagues in a dynamic environment, and it is expected that you can support our clients in solving their challenges based on your expert advice and/or design optimizations and engage actively in discussions with the clients enabling them to gain trust in their design.
