Chief Engineer - Structural Steelð Western New Yorkð $120,000 to $160,000

This isn't a role where you'll simply review drawings from the sidelines.

We're looking for a Chief Engineer to take technical ownership within a major structural steel operation - leading engineering, shaping connection design, solving complex technical challenges, and helping drive projects from engineering through production.

You'll be stepping into a position where your decisions have a direct impact on quality, efficiency, and the successful delivery of major steel projects.ð️ THE OPPORTUNITY As Chief Engineer, you'll become a key technical leader within the business.

You'll work closely with detailing, project management, production and quality teams, ensuring engineering decisions translate effectively from calculations and drawings into the shop and ultimately onto the project.

You'll also have the opportunity to develop junior engineers and improve engineering processes, giving you genuine influence over how the function operates.ð§ WHAT YOU'LL BE DOINGLead engineering activities and oversee structural steel connection design

If you're an experienced structural steel engineer who is ready to take ownership at Chief Engineer level, this could be the next chapter you've been waiting for.ð Interested? Apply confidentially
