- 2–6 years of structural engineering experience (buildings-focused)
- EIT required; PE license (or actively working towards it)
- Bachelor’s in Civil or Structural Engineering (Master’s preferred)
- Experience with software such as ETABS, SAP2000, AutoCAD, Revit
- Strong understanding of structural systems, materials, and building codes
- Clear communicator with solid technical writing skills
