Structural Engineer

About the Role

We’re seeking a motivated Structural Engineer with 0–5 years of experience to join a collaborative engineering team focused on the design of building structures. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career engineer to develop strong technical skills while gaining hands-on exposure to projects from initial design through construction.

You’ll work alongside experienced engineers on a variety of structural projects involving wood, concrete, steel, and masonry. The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys solving engineering problems, wants to expand their design capabilities, and is looking for a long-term opportunity to grow within a supportive team environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist with structural analysis and design of building projects
  • Prepare engineering calculations, drawings, details, specifications, and reports
  • Develop structural models and perform design calculations
  • Work with structural systems including wood, steel, concrete, and masonry
  • Assist with construction documents and project coordination
  • Review shop drawings, submittals, and RFIs as experience develops
  • Participate in site visits and field observations
  • Collaborate with architects, contractors, clients, and other engineering disciplines
  • Support projects through multiple phases of design and construction
  • Take on increasing responsibility as technical experience develops

Qualifications

  • 0–5 years of structural engineering experience
  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering
  • EIT/FE preferred or willingness to pursue
  • Fundamental understanding of structural engineering and building design
  • Familiarity with applicable building codes and standards
  • Exposure to structural design software, CAD, Revit, or other BIM platforms is a plus
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
  • Good written and verbal communication skills
  • Organized, motivated, and eager to learn
  • Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team

Why This Role

  • Early-Career Growth: Build a strong foundation in structural design while learning directly from experienced engineers.
  • Hands-On Experience: Get involved in real projects rather than being limited to repetitive production work.
  • Broad Technical Exposure: Develop experience across wood, steel, concrete, and masonry building systems.
  • Mentorship: Work within a collaborative team where you can continue developing your engineering knowledge.
  • Career Progression: Take on greater technical and project responsibility as you gain experience.
  • Project Variety: Gain exposure to different building types and project challenges.
