The company offers a dynamic approach to structural design and consulting, with expertise in heavy machinery, a diverse range of heavy equipment (including heavy lift cranes, hydraulic lift systems, excavators, and modular bridging systems), engineering software development, and project management. Using advanced computational methods and mathematical modeling, the team develops tailored engineering solutions for structural, specialized equipment, and broader industrial needs. Safety and operability are top priorities, ensuring that every design supports reliable performance and practical execution. Verret Ventures LLC provides detailed analysis and innovative solutions that help clients successfully complete complex projects.

Role Description

This full-time Engineer role is a hybrid position based in Sulphur, LA, with the flexibility to perform some work from home. The Engineer will support the design and analysis of structural systems, heavy equipment, and industrial components using engineering principles, computational tools, and modeling techniques. While the daily scope is highly focused on specialized industrial applications, the Engineer will also occasionally lend their expertise to more traditional structural design as project demands naturally ebb and flow. Day-to-day responsibilities include preparing calculations and technical drawings, reviewing project specifications, and collaborating with team members to develop safe, efficient, and cost-effective solutions. The role involves assisting with project planning, coordinating with clients and stakeholders, and documenting engineering decisions in reports and design packages. The Engineer will also help refine internal processes, support engineering software development initiatives, and contribute to continuous improvement in safety and operability standards.

Core Qualifications

• Strong foundation in structural or mechanical engineering, including design, analysis, and familiarity with industry standards.
• Experience with computational methods, mathematical modeling, and engineering software (e.g., CAD, analysis tools, or custom engineering software).
• Ability to contribute to heavy machinery and heavy equipment design (inclusive of heavy lift cranes, hydraulic lift systems, excavators, modular bridging systems, and others), with an emphasis on safety, operability, and practical field application.
• Skills in project coordination or project management, including organizing tasks, tracking progress, and communicating effectively with stakeholders.
• Proficiency in technical writing and documentation, including the preparation of calculations, reports, drawings, and specifications.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Civil, Structural, Mechanical, or related field).
• Comfort working in a hybrid environment, with the ability to collaborate on-site in Sulphur, LA and work independently from home.
• Commitment to safety, attention to detail, and a problem-solving mindset focused on innovative yet practical engineering solutions.

Preferred Experience & "Plus" Factors

We value diverse engineering backgrounds. We do not expect any single candidate to possess all of the following experiences, but exposure to any of these areas is considered a strong plus:
