Job Description

As a Structural Engineer, you will work with interdisciplinary project teams to ensure structures meet project requirements by providing technical assistance, direction, and support. Your role will involve coordinating with other project groups and vendors to communicate civil/structural impacts and ensure requirements are understood and appropriately implemented.

Responsibilities

  • Troubleshoot designs, resolve field and fabrication issues, and prepare formal resolutions.
  • Design structural steel, connections, and anchorage for framing, foundations, platforms, commodity supports, and other plant items.
  • Analyze structures for static and dynamic loads, including seismic, wind, tornado, and impact loading as applicable.
  • Perform Owner Acceptance Reviews for vendor deliverables such as analyses, design drawings, and shop drawings to ensure project requirements are met.
  • Plan, coordinate, or prepare design specifications and evaluate vendors for Civil/Structural design and construction.

Essential Skills

  • ABET-accredited Bachelor of Science Degree in Structural, Civil, or Architectural Engineering.
  • At least 5 years’ experience in Civil/Structural engineering or 3 years with a Master’s degree.
  • Experience with development and maintenance of design deliverables.
  • Experience with steel, concrete, and anchorage design.
  • Familiarity with seismic design.
  • Working knowledge of civil and structural design codes and requirements such as ACI 318, AISC 360.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience with structural analysis software (GT STRUDL, SAP2000, STAAD, or similar).
  • Experience with design resolution of field issues.
  • Previous nuclear plant design and/or modification experience.
  • Familiarity with the requirements of a strong nuclear quality assurance program.
  • Working knowledge of civil and structural design codes for nuclear safety-related structures, e.g., ACI 349, ANSI/AISC N690.
  • Professional Engineer registration in the State of Wisconsin.
  • Proficiency in Mathcad or similar structural software.
  • Strong spatial reasoning and clean communication skills.

You will report to the only other structural engineer and work with engineers from other disciplines. The standard work hours are 40 hours per week, starting between 7:30-9:00 AM and ending around 4:30 PM. This opportunity serves as a great stepping stone and resume builder, offering project management tasks due to the lean team structure.
