It is expected that you have a solid foundation in the fundamentals of Structural Engineering, knowledge of multiple subject areas, experience with US building codes including seismic provisions, understand how Structural design integrates with and impacts other disciplines, and are building understanding of business trends and industry issues and challenges.

  • Perform calculation checking of other engineers' work
  • Take responsibility for managing workload, make and keep commitments, and take full ownership of assigned work
  • Take complete ownership of your portion of the structural scope, reliably working to meet schedule, budget, and quality requirements
  • You may be given tasks with ill-defined conditions of satisfaction, in which case you will be expected to take the initiative to determine what is needed to meet the project and client needs
  • Clearly define your own scope and forecast level of effort needed to complete that scope
  • Be ready to identify scope change and escalate it to your Structural Lead or Project Manager
  • Recognize when help is needed, reaching out to peers and senior engineers for guidance
  • Work in a timely, accurate, and cost-effective manner with strong attention to detail
  • Developing leadership skills
  • Provide technical guidance, coaching, and/or mentorship to designers/drafters and less experienced engineers
  • Be proactive in advancing workflows, systems, and tools within the structural discipline; embrace emerging technologies
