Structural Engineering Intern

Structural Engineering Intern (Hybrid to Remote)

Blue Sky Engineering

We are a specialized structural engineering firm focused on high-quality residential design. Our portfolio includes custom homes, additions, remodels, and accessory structures. While our core work is wood-framed construction, we regularly incorporate steel and concrete design into our projects. We pride ourselves on delivering thoughtful engineering solutions while maintaining a supportive, collaborative work environment.

Starting Pay: $15-20/hour (with room for increase up to $40+/hour as skills and responsibilities grow).

Initial

Hours:

Starting at approximately 5 hours per week, expanding to 10–15+ hours per week as you gain experience.

Long-Term Career Path:
This internship is designed with the intent to transition into a full-time position for the right candidate.

The role begins as a hybrid position with initial training sessions at our office in Eagle Mountain, Utah. After the first 2–3 months of onboarding and training, the role will transition to a primarily remote/virtual setup.

Assist with the structural analysis and design of wood-framed residential homes, additions, and accessory structures.

Prepare structural calculations for wood, concrete, and steel elements under direct mentorship.

Produce structural plans, details, and models using Revit.

Utilize spreadsheets to organize data, build calculation tools, and streamline design workflows.

Take initiative on assigned tasks, proactively problem-solve, and learn through practical experience.

Currently pursuing a degree in Civil(Structural) Engineering, with junior-level coursework beginning this academic year.

Coursework in wood, steel, or concrete design is not required upfront, but enrolling in or taking these courses during the current academic year is ideal.

Revit:
Proficiency or experience in Revit is strongly preferred (AutoCAD knowledge is acceptable, but Revit is our primary tool).

Schetchulation:
Familiarity or experience with Schetchulation (by Tipping Solutions) is a significant plus. (This is a big differentiator.)

Spreadsheets:
Strong functional knowledge of spreadsheets (Excel/Google Sheets) for engineering calculations and data organization.

Highly motivated, curious, and driven to learn residential structural engineering.

Proactive mindset—willing to take initiative, ask questions, and learn through hands‑on experience.

Direct, hands‑on mentorship from experienced structural engineers.

Clear pathway for wage increases and advancement toward a full-time career.

High degree of schedule flexibility around your university classes.
