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 (3–8 years) for their New Jersey office.
This role is ideal for an engineer who’s strong technically and wants more than just calculations — real involvement across design, coordination, and construction, with exposure to complex building structures.
If you’re PE licensed (or close) and have experience with ETABS / RAM on building projects, this is the kind of role that builds you into a complete structural engineer.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Full project involvement
From concept design through construction support — not siloed work
- Strong building portfolio
Work across high-rise and mid-rise residential and commercial structures
- Real responsibility early
Direct communication with contractors, architects, and project teams
- Technical depth + practical exposure
Combine analysis, design, site inspections, and problem-solving
- Stable pipeline of projects
Consistent workload across private-sector developments
- Clear progression path
Opportunity to step into senior and project leadership responsibilities
What You’ll Be Doing
- Perform structural analysis and design for building structures
- Develop 2D and 3D structural models using ETABS / RAM Steel / RAM Elements
- Design across steel, concrete, masonry, and wood structures
- Develop gravity and lateral load calculations (IBC / 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 teams
- Prepare project reports, schedules, and technical documentation
What They’re Looking For
- B.S. in Civil or Structural Engineering
- 3–8 years of structural engineering experience
- PE licensed (preferred) or actively working towards it
- Experience working on building structures (high-rise preferred)
- Proficiency with ETABS, RAM Steel, and RAM Elements
- Strong AutoCAD skills (Revit a plus)
- Solid understanding of IBC and ASCE design standards
- Strong technical foundation in structural analysis and design
- Confident communicator who can engage with clients and contractors
If you’re at the stage where you want to step beyond pure design and become a well-rounded, project-focused engineer, this is worth a conversation.
