Job Description
If you enjoy structural engineering, industrial environments, and the challenge of turning real-world constraints into practical designs, our client offers an opportunity to make a direct impact on projects from concept through installation.
We are looking for a Structural Engineer to lead our client's structural engineering efforts and deliver custom solutions for their customers. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who enjoys solving problems that don't always come with a standard answer.
You'll perform structural analysis and design for steel structures, equipment supports, connections, and foundations while working closely with designers, customers, equipment manufacturers, fabricators, and installers. You will also provide technical direction to the drafting and design team and help shape the tools, standards, and processes used by the engineering group.
Job Responsibilities
- Project Variety: Design equipment support structures, access platforms, conveyor structures, foundations, structural modifications, and equipment retrofits.
- Engineering & Analysis: Develop structural models and calculations, determine appropriate design loads, design structural steel members and connections, and work with reinforced concrete foundations. Review drawings and coordinate structural designs with equipment and project requirements.
- Field Work: Spend time in the field documenting existing conditions, taking measurements, evaluating structures, and developing practical solutions when existing conditions don't match drawings—or when drawings don't exist at all.
- Leadership & Standards: Provide technical guidance to the drafting and design team and contribute to the continued development of engineering standards, calculation tools, software workflows, and design practices.
- Taking ownership of a design from concept to completion.
- Working through incomplete or evolving project information.
- Communicating effectively with both technical and nontechnical project partners.
