Senior Structural Engineer (Professional Engineer)

Job Description

An established, employee-owned engineering and professional services firm is looking for an experienced Senior Structural Engineer to join its growing team.

This is an opportunity for a technically strong PE-licensed engineer to take ownership of complex structural design projects, provide technical leadership to junior engineers and contribute to the successful delivery of projects across a diverse range of sectors.

This role can be based in Phoenix, AZ or Albuquerque, NM.

You'll combine hands-on structural engineering and analysis with project coordination, quality assurance and construction-phase involvement, working alongside a multidisciplinary team of engineering professionals.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead structural design and analysis for complex building systems and structural components.
• Research and implement appropriate design methodologies, ensuring solutions are technically robust, efficient and constructible.
• Interpret structural analysis results, identify potential modelling errors and resolve technical challenges.
• Apply relevant building codes, industry standards and design guidelines throughout project delivery.
• Review and quality-check engineering calculations, drawings and technical documentation.
• Provide technical guidance, mentorship and oversight to junior engineers and engineering technicians.
• Manage project deliverables and, where appropriate, take responsibility for the execution of moderately complex projects.
• Attend design coordination and construction meetings, communicating technical requirements and resolving engineering issues.
• Conduct construction site visits and provide engineering solutions to field-related challenges.
• Utilize structural analysis and design software to support accurate engineering solutions.
• Support Revit modelling, detailing and drawing production where required.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Structural Engineering or a related engineering discipline from an accredited institution.
• Minimum six years of relevant, hands-on structural engineering experience. A master's degree may substitute for one year of experience.
• Active Professional Engineer (PE) licence in at least one US state.
• Strong technical capabilities in structural analysis, design and engineering problem-solving.
• Experience independently delivering structural engineering designs for complex projects.
• Working knowledge of structural analysis software and Revit.
• Strong understanding of applicable building codes and engineering standards.
• Ability to manage multiple projects, prioritize deliverables and work to deadlines.
• Excellent communication skills and the confidence to collaborate with clients, contractors and multidisciplinary project teams.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving, with an interest in mentoring and developing junior engineers.

Working Arrangement: Primarily on-site, with potential for hybrid flexibility in the future.

If you're a PE-licensed Structural Engineer looking for greater technical ownership, the opportunity to lead and mentor others, and the chance to contribute to challenging engineering projects, we'd welcome a conversation.
