  • Plan, perform, and oversee structural analysis and design from concept development through construction documents, including calculations, specifications, reports, and drawing production.
  • Review and approve structural calculations, plans, details, specifications, and technical reports prepared by others, ensuring technical accuracy, constructability, consistency, and compliance with company QA/QC standards.
  • Ensure designs comply with applicable codes and criteria, including IBC, ASCE 7, ACI 318, AISC 360, TMS, NDS, and other applicable state, local, and federal requirements.
  • Lead structural coordination with architects and other engineering disciplines to ensure integrated, code-compliant, and constructible building designs.
  • Serve as Engineer of Record, when required, for building structural projects.
  • Support federal design execution by applying UFC, UFGS, and other agency-specific criteria relevant to projects for NASA, FAA, USACE, and similar clients.
  • Provide technical mentorship, training, and performance guidance to junior and mid-level engineers, and support recruiting, staff development, and retention of structural engineering talent.
  • Participate in site investigations, existing-condition assessments, field observations, and construction-phase support activities, including responses to RFIs, submittal reviews, and evaluation of field conditions.
  • Support proposals, technical approach development, and interview preparation as a subject-matter expert for structural building pursuits.
  • Able to travel a few days a month with short notice

Preferred Qualifications:
  • 15+ years of structural engineering experience in building design.
  • Structural Engineer (SE) license.
  • Master's degree in Structural Engineering.
