Structural Engineer II

Job Summary: Generally responsible for performing all aspects for a complete designs of small and large civil/structural engineering assignments using theoretical knowledge and practical design methods. This work will be performed under general supervision.

Primary responsibilities will include but not be limited to:

• Familiarity with and utilizing department design and drafting standards.

• Familiarity with project scope, specifications and design criteria upon assignment to a project task team.

• Developing conceptual layouts and cost studies as necessary to determine the simplest, most efficient approach to solving engineering tasks at hand.

• Producing estimate level preliminary designs and material take-offs suitable for the level of the estimate being performed on a project.

• Producing detail design calculations and sketches for materials of construction associated with the project.

• Calculations produced will be neatly prepared and organized for efficient checking by others and efficient use by drafters/designers for preparing drawings and as a deliverable when required.

• Producing designs with efficient use of construction materials with an overall emphasis on ease of construction and completed product meeting the expectations of the client.

• Checking calculations made by other engineers to ensure accuracy, conformance to codes, specifications, design criteria and conformance to good engineering practice.

• Assisting the drafting group in resolving routine layout and detailing problems. Responsibility to furnish sufficient sketches and details necessary for completion of engineering drawings.

• Consulting with design leaders from other disciplines to ensure the smooth flow of vital information necessary for the scheduled completion of the project.

• Advising the senior engineer concerning design or scope changes, which have been identified.

• Assisting other engineers in developing and assembling scopes, drawings and specifications into a “package”, enabling civil/structural purchase inquiries to be issued for procurement of materials or subcontract pricing.

• Reviewing and checking vendor drawings and other discipline drawings for civil/structural input.

• Developing construction specifications.

• Reviewing fabrication drawings and other construction submittals for conformance to engineering drawings and specifications.

• Performing fieldwork necessary to gather field data, check tie-ins and provide construction support.

• Provide technical guidance to less experienced drafting and engineering personnel in the department.

• Able to lead small to medium size teams in coordinating civil/structural efforts and keeping the team focused on scope, schedule and budget.

• Developing small work sharing packages for interoffice execution support.

This position offers a highly competitive compensation package, including paid time off, health insurance benefits, and matching retirement contributions.

Education: Bachelor or Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering from an accredited university is required. Structural coursework is required for structural engineering positions.

Registration: Professional Engineering registration is highly preferred.

Experience: This position requires 3+ years of relevant industrial experience in civil/structural engineering.

Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:

• Knowledge and application of the International Building Code and associated standards (ASCE, AISC, ACI, etc.).

• Expertise with civil/structural analysis software including operating and interpreting results.

• Knowledge of the discipline specific methods, practices and techniques required to engineer, design and construct process and manufacturing projects.

• Able to lead a small to medium team to deliver on…
