Structural Engineer

If you’re doing building design but not getting full project exposure — this is where that changes.

We’re partnered with a well-established structural engineering firm to hire a Structural Engineer for their New Jersey office. This role is ideal for an engineer who’s technically strong and wants more than just calculations and redlines — real involvement across design, coordination, construction, and project delivery.

If you’re PE licensed (or close) and have experience with ETABS and RAM on building projects, this is the kind of opportunity that helps turn you into a complete structural engineer.

• Full project involvement from concept design through construction support
• Work across high-rise, mid-rise, residential, and commercial building structures
• Real responsibility and client exposure early in your career
• Strong mix of technical depth and practical project experience
• Stable pipeline of private-sector building projects
• Clear progression path into senior engineering and project leadership roles

• Perform structural analysis and design for building structures
• Develop 2D and 3D structural models using ETABS, RAM Steel, and RAM Elements
• Design steel, concrete, masonry, and wood structural systems
• Develop gravity and lateral load calculations in accordance with IBC and ASCE standards
• Prepare construction documents including framing plans, details, and specifications
• Carry out site inspections to review contractor work and ensure compliance
• Respond to RFIs, resolve field issues, and support construction activities
• Coordinate directly with contractors, architects, and internal engineering teams
• Prepare project reports, schedules, and technical documentation

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering
• 3–8 years of structural engineering experience
• PE license preferred or actively working toward licensure
• Experience working on building structures; high-rise experience preferred
• Proficiency with ETABS, RAM Steel, and RAM Elements
• Strong understanding of IBC and ASCE design standards
• Solid technical foundation in structural analysis and design
• Strong communication skills with the ability to coordinate with clients and contractors

• Exposure to the full lifecycle of structural building projects
• Opportunity to work directly with project teams, contractors, and architects
• Strong technical mentorship and hands-on project experience
• Long-term progression into senior engineering and leadership responsibilities
• Stable project pipeline and collaborative team environment
• Opportunity to become a more well-rounded, project-focused structural engineer

If you’re at the stage where you want to move beyond pure design work and gain broader project exposure, this is worth a conversation.
