Your future colleagues
Jonathan Hooper
lead engineer
More info
Jonathan is an Englishman that comes from just outside the Marine Heritage town of Portsmouth, located on the south coast of UK.
What brought you to SeaTwirl?
I saw a great opportunity to immerse myself further in the renewable energy market in a differing discipline from before, but with a basis on ideas that I already have experience and interest in. When looking at SeaTwirl, I could see the clear company growth potential and could perceive the interesting array of challenges that could be put towards myself. Working with a flexible team is certainly also a bonus!
Tell us about your role at SeaTwirl
I am a Lead Engineer responsible for mechanical drive components, working to optimize and make possible the effective operation of our renewable solutions.
Joanna Eichstaedt
engineer
More info
Joanna is a Mechanical Engineer from Poland.
What brought you to Sweden and SeaTwirl?
I knew from my time in Trondheim that I wanted to go back to Scandinavia. So, my plan was to go back to Poland to gain work experience and then get back here. SeaTwirl had the added appeal of being in renewable energy, which I believe is the future.
Tell us about your role at SeaTwirl
I work mainly with 3D models, which is basically a way to see the device before it is physically manufactured and to make sure that you assemble it in the right order. With a model, one can easily find potential faults and improve the design at an early stage, thereby de-risking projects.
Johanna Stenmark
loads engineer
More info
Johanna wrote her master thesis at SeaTwirl, and today she works as a Loads Engineer.
Tell us about your role at SeaTwirl
At SeaTwirl I work as Loads Engineer, so I mainly work with obtaining the loads on the turbine.
What do you do on a typical day at work?
Usually, I work in some way with simulation of the turbine and the loads acting on it. Be it either running new simulations or analysis of already obtained loads. Some form of scripting to automatically obtain all this data is also included.
So far, what challenges have arisen?
Understanding the complexity of a VAWT and what has been and what is being done in the industry. The aerodynamics related to a VAWT is very interesting but not something I have come into much contact with before my master thesis so there is a lot I can learn in my role.
What made you stay and take a job at SeaTwirl?
I found my master thesis super interesting, and it opened my eyes to the complex dynamics of a VAWT which made me want to learn more. That it also is within renewable energies is also of course of importance and it’s great to be part of a company that is part of developing new energy sources.
