Our Structural Engineering team specializes in renovations, expansions and new construction and provides services for multi-family, healthcare, retail, office, religious, education, hospitality and historic restoration and adaptive re-use projects. Our Structural department designs projects with structural steel frames, concrete frames, heavy timber, light frame construction, and masonry. You will have the opportunity to work on all components of a project, through all phases. You will be involved in laying out and planning the structural scheme of the project, and all the way through wrapping up the construction. There are many opportunities for everyone to get out onto project sites and gather actual field/construction experience.

Our application process is short. We will contact and speak to every candidate. We usually know our decision after one interview, however, there have been times when we had two. That's all there is to it! We would like to hire someone as soon as possible.
