Job Description

We are seeking a Mid-Level Structural Engineer to support structural analysis, design, and project delivery across a portfolio of structural work. This role is for an engineer who can independently execute defined design scopes, produce well-organized calculation packages, and drive coordination with minimal rework—while escalating key technical decisions to senior engineers. The ideal candidate is technically rigorous, quality-driven, and comfortable balancing design, documentation, and construction-phase support.

• Perform structural analysis and design for assigned project components (gravity and lateral systems, framing layouts, member sizing, and coordination of detailing intent).
• Develop complete, traceable calculation packages with clear assumptions, code references, and design checks.
• Support design of steel and/or concrete elements, and coordinate load paths and design criteria across structural components.
• Identify constructability concerns and propose practical solutions aligned with design intent.
• Produce and/or coordinate structural design deliverables including drawings, details, schedules, and technical notes.
• Review and comment on shop drawings/submittals and draft RFI responses for senior review/approval.
• Coordinate structural interfaces with architecture, MEP, and civil disciplines to prevent clashes and downstream change.
• Apply internal standards and QA/QC processes; perform self-checks and peer reviews as assigned.
• Proactively catch inconsistencies between calculations, plans, and details; drive corrections before issue.
• Maintain audit-ready project files, version control, and decision logs.

• Provide engineering support during construction: evaluate field conditions, draft clarifications, and support resolution paths.
• Attend coordination meetings and/or site visits as needed; document findings and action items.

• Bachelor’s degree in Structural Engineering or Civil Engineering (Structural concentration) from an accredited institution.
• 4–7 years of structural engineering experience (analysis, design, deliverables, coordination).
• Strong understanding of structural systems and construction documentation.
• Proficiency with common tools such as AutoCAD, Revit, RISA, STAAD Pro (or comparable analysis/modeling platforms).
• Demonstrated ability to produce complete, defensible calculation packages and coordinate deliverables with minimal supervision.
• Strong written/verbal communication skills and ability to document decisions clearly.

• EIT / FE passed; progress toward P.E. (preferred).
• 4+ years of structural engineering experience AND active Professional Engineer (P.E.) license (current and in good standing)
• 6+ years of structural engineering experience (analysis, design, deliverables, coordination) without a P.E. license
• Experience with a mix of steel and concrete design, and construction-phase engineering support.
• Experience reviewing submittals/shop drawings and supporting RFI/field issue resolution.
• Prior experience mentoring junior engineers or directing drafting/model updates.
