Responsibilities
Responsible for the technical integrity, reliability, and maintenance strategy of the wind turbine generator fleet during the operational phase. This includes managing fault responses, repair campaigns, and OEM interfaces to optimize asset performance and availability.
Requirements
Requires a degree or HND in Mechanical, Electrical, or Renewable Energy Engineering with strong technical grounding in utility-scale wind turbines. Candidates must have direct offshore O&M experience and proficiency in fault diagnosis and contractor coordination.
Full job description
Is this your chance to join the team operating one of Scotland's largest offshore wind farms?
Inch Cape Offshore Wind Farm
Inch Cape is a 1080MW offshore wind farm situated 15km from the Angus coast in the North Sea. The power it generates will be transmitted 85 kilometres to a new substation at Cockenzie, in East Lothian from where it will enter the national transmission system. Inch Cape is a more than £3 billion infrastructure project that will make a significant contribution to the UK’s carbon emissions reduction targets. Once complete its 72 turbines will generate enough electricity to power almost half the homes in Scotland.
Summary of Assignment:
The Wind Turbine Engineer (O&M) is responsible for the technical integrity, reliability, maintenance strategy, and operational performance of the wind turbine generator fleet during the operational phase of the windfarm. The role provides engineering ownership of turbine systems and supports safe, efficient, and commercially optimised operation of the asset across planned maintenance, fault response, major component replacement campaigns, defect elimination, and continuous improvement.
The postholder will ensure turbine assets are operated and maintained in a manner that is safe, compliant, available and value-accretive, supporting energy production, contractual performance, asset-life preservation, and long-term shareholder returns.
This role sits within the operational asset organisation and acts as the focal engineering role for wind turbine systems during O&M. The WTG Engineer will be responsible for,
Ownership of turbine availability and reliability
Development and optimization of maintenance strategies
Support for fault analysis and troubleshooting
Delivery of repair and retrofit campaigns
Oversight of service contracts, OEM interfaces, and field execution
Use of performance and event data to drive continuous improvement
The role is therefore both technically and commercial significant, bridging day-to-day operations with medium to long term windfarm performance strategy.
Location: Montrose, (3 days a week in the office, 2 days WFH)
Responsibilities
Turbine Asset Integrity and Technical Assurance
Act as the engineering owner or delegated technical authority for offshore wind turbine systems during operations
Maintain engineering oversight of key turbine sub-systems, including rotor and blades, nacelle systems, yaw and pitch systems, drivetrain, gearbox, generator, converter, hydraulics, cooling, lubrication, braking, auxiliary systems, and turbine control interfaces
Develop, review, and optimise preventative, condition-based, and corrective maintenance strategies for WTG assets
Review defect, event, inspection, vibration, and condition monitoring data and determine corrective actions, repair priorities, and engineering mitigations
Lead or support root-cause analysis for repeated faults, trips, underperformance, component degradation, and loss of generation events
Support lifecycle planning, obsolescence management, major component strategy, spares parts philosophy, and end of warranty or long-term service strategy
Planned Maintenance, Corrective Works, and Campaign Delivery
Define and optimise turbine maintenance concepts, work packs, and campaign scopes for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance
Support preparation and delivery of annual service campaigns, serial defect campaigns, retrofit packages, blade inspections and repairs, and major component exchange scopes
Provide engineering support to offshore technicians and contractors undertaking maintenance and repair activities
Review technical instructions, OEM recommendations, method statements, risk assessments, and lessons learned to ensure safe and efficient execution
Support outage readiness, parts planning, tooling strategy, and resource coordination for offshore delivery
Fault Response and Reliability Improvement
Provide technical leadership during turbine faults, serial defects, repeated alarms, emergency stops, performance anomalies, and return to service decisions
Analyse fault codes, event logs, condition monitoring outputs, and operational trends to identify failure modes and prevent recurrence
Support troubleshooting of mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, and control related turbine issues in collaboration with OEMs, SCADA engineers, and offshore teams
Escalate technical risks promptly and recommend short term mitigations and permanent corrective actions
Drive defect elimination and reliability improvement programmes across the WTG assets
OEM, Contractor, and Service Contract Management
Act as the primary engineering interface for turbine OEMs, major component suppliers, specialist repair contractors, and inspection providers
Manage technical elements of service contracts, defect claims, campaign scopes, and contractor performance
Review contractor RAMS, technical submissions, inspection findings, and close out reports
Ensure engineering records, defect registers, technical deviations, and asset history records are complete and auditable
Support commercial assessment of repair vs replace decisions, campaign value, service performance, and residual technical risk
Performance, Data, and Continuous Improvement
Use operational and maintenance data to improve turbine availability, reliability, maintainability, and energy production
Work with SCADA, electrical, and operational teams to identify trends in start/stops, resets, derates, fault sequences, and weather-related performance impacts
Support performance loss analysis and engineering action plans to reduce forced outages and improve mean time to repair
Contribute to digitalisation, predictive maintenance, and condition monitoring initiatives where they demonstrate improve decision quality or reduce cost
Decision Making Authority
Make engineering recommendations on turbine risk, maintenance strategy, reliability priorities, and corrective actions
Approve or endorse technical scopes, work packs, and repair strategies within delegated authority
Stop work or escalate where turbine condition, documentation, or safety controls are inadequate
Recommend outage strategy, campaign timing, and return to service decisions
Govern turbine engineering changes under the site management of change proves
Skills:
Strong Safety leadership and judgement
Technical depth in wind turbine systems and failure analysis
Commercial awareness and risk-based decision making
Direct offshore wind O&M experience
Experience in major component replacements, blade campaigns, serial defect management, or retrofit delivery
Familiarly with turbine SCADA / event analysis and condition monitoring data
Experience managing long term service agreements or specialist campaign contracts
Knowledge of turbine availability improvement and reliability programmes
Knowledge:
Experience supporting, maintaining, trouble shooting, or improving wind turbine systems in offshore wind, onshore wind, power generation, or other rotating equipment environments
Experience in fault diagnosis, root cause analysis, maintenance planning, defect management, and contractor or OEM coordination
Ability to operate effectively in a safety critical environment with strong change control discipline
Qualifications:
Degree, HND, or equivalent higher qualification in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Renewable Energy Engineering, or a closely related discipline
Strong technical grounding in offshore or utility scale wind turbine systems and maintenance
If you wish to make a big impact in renewables and being involved in this innovative project do not hesitate to apply.
