• Assess structural behaviour under dynamic loads (including seismic and blast scenarios).
• Post-process FEM results to support reinforced concrete design activities and deliverables.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering methods, including support to internal calculation tools (programming exposure is a plus).
• Coordinate and communicate on complex technical topics within multidisciplinary project teams.
• Provide technical guidance to other FE analysts and support the upskilling of junior team members.

• Minimum 5 years’ relevant experience (10+ years preferred).
• Strong background in reinforced concrete structural analysis.
