Structural Designer

Location: Mount Laurel

Remote Structural Designer Help Build the Infrastructure That Powers Tomorrow

Join a long-established engineering organization with over a century of proven success-where practical design expertise meets real-world impact. As major investments in nuclear and power generation accelerate across North America, this is your chance to contribute to projects that truly matter.

This is a newly created role driven by growth, offering strong long-term stability, consistent work, and the opportunity to be part of a team shaping critical energy infrastructure for years to come.

What It's Like to Work Here

+ Be part of something big - Contribute to large-scale industrial and energy projects that keep communities running

+ Stability you can count on - A strong backlog of work extending well into the next decade

+ Team-driven environment - Work alongside experienced designers and engineers who value collaboration and knowledge-sharing

+ Flexibility built in - Remote or hybrid work options that support your day-to-day life

+ A place to grow - Expand your technical skills across complex, high-impact projects

What You'll Do

In this role, you'll focus on the hands-on design and drafting of structural systems supporting power generation and industrial facilities. Your work will directly contribute to the successful delivery of major infrastructure projects.

Key Responsibilities:

+ Develop detailed designs for foundations, structural steel, and industrial support systems

+ Create and refine layouts for pipe racks, tank foundations, and auxiliary structures

+ Perform structural analysis calculations to support design solutions

+ Produce and update design drawings, models, and documentation

+ Apply industry codes, standards, and project specifications to design work

+ Support projects across nuclear, conventional power, and industrial sectors

+ Work with engineering teams to translate concepts into practical, buildable designs

+ Assist in design work related to ductwork and emissions control systems

What You Bring

Required:

+ 10+ years of experience in structural design and drafting (not purely theoretical engineering)

+ Strong background in power generation, utilities, or heavy industrial environments

+ Experience supporting projects in nuclear, fossil fuel, or energy infrastructure

Preferred:

+ Associate's degree, technical diploma, or B.S. in Civil/Structural discipline

+

Experience with seismic design considerations (especially in nuclear settings)

Familiarity with:

+ AutoCAD

+ Autodesk Advance Steel

Why This Role Stands Out

+ Work on large, complex infrastructure projects without being stuck in purely theoretical work

+ Join a highly stable organization known for long employee tenure

+ Be part of a growing team, not filling someone else's seat

+ Enjoy consistent, long-term project work with minimal uncertainty

+ Competitive compensation, PTO, and flexible work options
