Structural Engineer

A client of Innova Solutions is immediately hiring for a Structural Engineer

Position type: Full-time, Contract
Duration: 12 months, possible extension
Location: Birmingham, AL

About the Opportunity
We are looking for an innovative and detail-driven Structural Engineer who thrives at the intersection of engineering design, BIM technology, and advanced manufacturing. This role is ideal for a professional passionate about industrialized construction, Light Gauge Steel (CFS) framing systems, and leveraging cutting-edge digital tools to transform concepts into fabrication-ready solutions.
As a key member of our team, you will bridge the gap between architectural BIM models and manufacturing execution, utilizing Autodesk Revit and Vertex BD to create intelligent, code-compliant structural models that seamlessly translate into production-ready outputs and roll-forming data. You'll collaborate with architects, engineers, manufacturing teams, and business stakeholders to deliver innovative, efficient, and highly constructible building solutions.

What You'll Do
BIM Modeling & Digital Design

• Create intelligent 3D structural models using Autodesk Revit and Vertex BD based on architectural concepts, project requirements, constructability considerations, and cost objectives.
• Transform conceptual designs into highly detailed and fabrication-ready BIM models.
• Produce coordinated structural drawings, shop drawings, and BIM deliverables with exceptional accuracy and quality.
• Work closely with architects, clients, fabricators, installers, and internal teams to ensure seamless project execution.

Automated Framing & Industrialized Construction

• Utilize Vertex BD to generate automated floor, wall, and roof framing systems for Cold Formed Steel (CFS) and timber structures.
• Develop panelization layouts and manufacturing drawings optimized for off-site and industrialized construction processes.
• Drive efficiency through automation and digital workflows that streamline production and installation.

Structural Engineering & Analysis

• Perform structural calculations for gravity, lateral, wind, and serviceability loads.
• Analyze CFS framing systems, wall panels, trusses, and structural assemblies using integrated engineering platforms.
• Optimize designs for safety, performance, constructability, and cost efficiency while ensuring code compliance.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner with architects, MEP consultants, manufacturers, installers, finance teams, and customers to deliver innovative and cost-effective solutions.
• Coordinate structural BIM models with architectural and MEP disciplines to identify and resolve design clashes proactively.
• Participate in BIM coordination sessions and collaborative project reviews throughout the design lifecycle.

Manufacturing & Digital Fabrication

• Generate fabrication-ready outputs, including CSV files for automated roll-forming equipment and manufacturing machinery.
• Produce accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs) and fabrication datasets supporting procurement and production teams.
• Serve as a critical link between engineering and manufacturing, ensuring designs transition smoothly into production.
• Support and engage with fabrication and roll-forming operations as required.

Quality, Compliance & Best Practices

• Ensure all structural designs comply with relevant building codes, standards, and engineering requirements.
• Maintain BIM standards, modeling conventions, and quality-control processes.
• Conduct thorough reviews of models, drawings, fabrication outputs, and manufacturing files to ensure accuracy, completeness, and constructability.

What We're Looking For
Technical Expertise

• Strong experience in BIM-driven structural engineering and modern industrialized construction methods.
• Hands-on knowledge of Cold Formed Steel (CFS) framing systems.
• Proficiency with Vertex BD, Autodesk Revit, and related BIM technologies.
• Familiarity with SketchUp, Fram eBuilder, or similar modeling tools is a plus.
• Experience supporting projects from concept development through fabrication and production.

Innovation Mindset

• Demonstrated involvement in innovation-focused initiatives such as:
  • New product or system development
  • Digital transformation programs
  • Automation and workflow optimization
  • Pilot or proof-of-concept construction projects
• Ability to introduce creative ideas that improve efficiency, constructability, and manufacturing integration.

Collaborative & Entrepreneurial Spirit

• Comfortable working in fast-paced, evolving environments where flexibility, ownership, and initiative are valued.
• Strong communicator capable of translating technical information into actionable manufacturing and production deliverables.
• Proven ability to collaborate across engineering, architecture, manufacturing, business, finance, and customer-facing teams.
• Self-motivated, hands-on, and solution-oriented with excellent problem-solving abilities.

Education

• Bachelor's Degree in Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering with 1-3 years of relevant experience.

OR

• Three-year CAD Design qualification with 5–7 years of relevant industry experience.
• Advanced degrees are welcomed but not required.

Preferred Experience

• 3–7 years of structural engineering experience with a strong BIM focus.
• Expertise in CFS framing and industrialized construction methodologies.
• Experience with modular, panelized, prefabricated, or off-site construction.
• Exposure to startup, scale-up, or innovation-driven environments.
• Experience navigating evolving project requirements and rapid design iterations.
• Strong multidisciplinary coordination experience with architects, MEP engineers, fabrication teams, and construction stakeholders.
• Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills.
