Civil​/Structural Engineering Manager

What You'll Be Doing

The Structural Engineering Lead is responsible for supervising and providing technical direction to a team of engineers. The role involves full delivery of civil/structural deliverables and services on time, within budget, and meeting quality expectations. It requires extensive experience in civil/structural engineering and utilization of project controls for cost, scheduling, and quality. This work is performed with minimal supervision in the Beaumont office.

• Review and approval of all civil/structural deliverables.
• Validation of professional services and construction estimates at project onset and tracking changes as the project progresses.
• Perform engineering activities such as stress analysis, construction specifications, material procurement specifications, calculations, and estimates.
• Produce professional service estimates in accordance with departmental standards for project deliverables, studies, and proposals.
• Develop conceptual layouts and cost studies to determine the simplest, most efficient approach to engineering tasks.
• Establish design criteria, incorporating client requirements, estimates, scope basis, and applicable state, local, and federal standards and codes. Ensure permitting requirements are established and communicated.
• Maintain scope and deliverables awareness, initiating timely change notices when deviations affect schedule, deliverables, or cost.
• Plan and organize team work, communicating the plan to the team, project leadership, and the client.
• Track and maintain control of project performance, budget progress, schedule commitments, and quality standards.
• Delegate work to engineers proportionate to their technical skills and experience, following up to ensure efficient progress and quality.
• Consult with design leaders from other disciplines, following up to ensure efficient progress and quality.
• Produce detail design calculations and sketches for materials of construction, organized for efficient checking and drafting.
• Produce designs with efficient use of construction materials, emphasizing ease of construction and client satisfaction.
• Check calculations made by other engineers for accuracy, code conformance, and engineering practice standards.
• Produce construction specifications.
• Monitor drawings in progress to ensure conformance to design calculations and specifications.
• Assist drafting group in resolving routine layout and detailing problems, ensuring sufficient sketches and details for engineering drawings.
• Produce bid packages for civil/structural purchase inquiries and subcontract pricing.
• Understand the skills and experience required to perform engineering and design functions.
• Participate in training program planning, continuous education opportunities, and professional development of staff.
