Octagon Professionals is currently recruiting for a Structural Design Consultant (High-Voltage Motor Core) to join a leading international industrial manufacturer.
Overview
In this role, you will bring global best practices in structural engineering and design verification to help establish a more advanced and systematic approach to large rotating machinery design. You will work closely with engineering teams to improve structural integrity, diagnose vibration-related issues, and implement robust design standards for next-generation high-voltage motors and generators.
As electric machines scale toward higher capacity and output, the need for advanced structural design, balancing mechanical strength, vibration stability, and weight optimisation, has become increasingly critical. While traditional approaches often rely on conservative safety factors, newer lightweight designs introduce more complex noise and vibration challenges.
Role Responsibilities
• Act as a senior structural design consultant for high-voltage motors and large rotating machinery, providing expert evaluation and improvement recommendations for existing models.
• Analyse structural strength, dynamic behaviour, and vibration stability of rotor and stator assemblies under operational and high-speed conditions.
• Diagnose root causes of internal defects and field issues related to noise and vibration, proposing effective corrective actions and design improvements.
• Establish and implement structural design standards and comprehensive engineering guidelines aligned with global best practices.
• Support the development of advanced design verification methodologies, including simulation and validation of structural performance.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure design improvements are effectively integrated into product development and manufacturing processes.
• Provide clear technical guidance, reports, and recommendations to stakeholders, supporting decision-making and long-term engineering strategy.
Essential Skills and Experience
• Minimum of 10 years of hands-on experience in structural design of large rotating machinery, such as high-voltage motors or generators.
• Deep expertise in structural strength design, dynamic analysis, and vibration stability evaluation.
• Strong experience in identifying and resolving noise and vibration issues in rotating systems.
• Proven ability to conduct technical analysis and translate findings into practical design improvements.
• Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to lead technical discussions and advisory activities across international teams.
• Senior-level technical leadership experience or equivalent expertise in complex engineering environments.
Desirable Skills and Experience
• Experience working with or alongside leading global motor manufacturers
• Background in design verification and optimisation using structural analysis methods.
• Experience performing root-cause analysis and implementing corrective actions for rotor system vibration issues.
• Familiarity with modern engineering tools and methodologies for simulation, validation, and performance optimisation.
Package
• High-impact consulting assignment with a global industrial manufacturer
• Flexible engagement structure aligned with seniority and availability
• Competitive consulting fee
• International collaboration with engineering teams and stakeholders
